Consumer Description

MY 2005 EQUINOX IS LEAKING WATER INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. I GET A LOT OF WATER COLLECTED IN THE SPARE TIRE AREA AND A LOT OF WATER IN THE REAR FLOORBOARDS. SINCE MY DRIVEWAY IS ON AN INCLINE IT IS DIFFICULT TO TELL WHERE THE LEAK IS COMING IN AT. I ALSO HAVE NOTICED THE WATER DRIPS OUT OF THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS WHEN I BRAKE. I HAVE BEEN TO TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND THEY BOTH HAVE RULED OUT A SUNROOF DRAINAGE ISSUE SINCE THE AREA IS CLEAR. I HAVE SEEN QUITE A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM I AM HAVING, AND I AM NOT SURE WHAT STEPS TO TAKE AT THIS POINT SINCE IT IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE AND NOT WEAR AND TEAR. WITH NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL SINCE THE ISSUE IS NOT AN UNCOMMON OCCURRENCE? *TR
