During heavy rain, not a car wash, the top of the inside A-pillar gets soaked and drips then ultimately runs down the A-pillar and drips into the floor. I looked but there isn't a drain hole in the front corner that I have seen on other cars. Does anybody have any experience with this same problem?

I forgot to mention I have a 2007 G35 sedan.

I've heard of them leaking from the C pillar, but I don't think I've heard of the A pillars.

I would start by looking at the windshield. Will it do it if you just hold the hose on it? If so, try taping up the windshield seam and see if it goes away.

Thanks but I found the problem. I did find the drainage hole and poured water in it and after a short time water dripped out from under the front wheel opening. I tried it on the passenger side and it poured out so I know I have some blockage in the drain. Thanks again for your in put!
