The only problem i have when it is raining, is that every time i open the door, water rolls off the roof and drips into the cabin. It's not that it's leaking, but just the fact that there is no "drip catch" built into the stripping around the doors.

I had the same thing happen to my old car a dodge neon.

The water came in thru the passenger side air vents under the glove box.

I took it to the stealership and they ran it thru the car was and nothing happen, the a holes told me i had the window open.

It would leave in heavy rain

haha, if your dealership ran water on it for hours then I am a millionaire. Dont believe a word anything a dealer tells you. They are full of crap.

I had this problem with my last Coupe. They replaced the whole interior ceiling and when they did, they forgot to reattach the drain pipe from the sunroof. This drain pipe goes down the drivers side pillar. Mine started leaking on my foot during a heavy rain. I would be willing to bet if they ran water over the sunroof for hours then the lead would appear.
