Consumer Description
THE SUN ROOF LEAKS AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER HAD COLLECTED INSIDE THE BATTERY TERMINAL WHICH IS LOCATED UNDER AND BEHIND THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT. SINCE THEN, WATER CONTINUES TO LEAK IN FROM THE SUN ROOF "TUBES" WHICH HAVE BEEN CLEANED OUT SEVERAL TIME. I HAVE HAD WATER THAT PUDDLES UNDER THE CARPETING IN THE FRONT AND REAR SEAT AND HAS EFFECTED THE ELECTRICAL. THERE ARE NUMEROUS INSTANCES POSTED AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF FOLKS WHO HAVE ALSO DEALT WITH THIS ISSUE. IT'S A SHAME THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. GM HAS NO RESOLUTION AND THE DEALERSHIP CHARGES $50 TO "BLOW OUT THE LINES" I.E. USING AN AIR HOSE TO BLOW AIR THROUGH THE TUBES. IT'S OBVIOUS THE SUN ROOF IS NOT PROPERLY SEALED AND THE TUBES (DRAINS AS THEY ARE REFERRED TO BY THE DEALERSHIP) ARE NOT FULL PROOF. THE WATER ALSO LEAKS FROM THE SIDE AIRBAG CURTAINS AND THE SUN ROOF CONTROL PANEL
