I've been lurking for a couple months. I bought an EX back in November. I decided to register to give you some feedback on this.
My EX had the leaky sunroof. It didn't drench the inside, but in a car wash, one time it just had a few dozen drops come through, and one time it was basically a sheet of water, but all caught by the drip pan/guard underneath.
When I first brought it in, the technitian said that was normal, the drip pan was meant to catch leaks, and the seal was primarily designed to catch dust and rain, not seal against high pressure washes.
I had to bring it back to get the steering column replaced (tilt motor problem), so I let it go at that time, because I needed to get home.
While it was back in the shop for the steering column replacement and a few other things, I called the service manager and said I just wanted to discuss the sunroof leaking, and make sure it was normal. He told me he had been reviewing the ticket, saw that and went and talked to his tech (not sure if it was the same one I talked to) and when they examined the car, the rear part of the sunroof was about a 1/4" too low. He said since they just did some paint work, he didn't want to run it through the car wash, but if it still happened, to bring it back, and he would personally run it through a car wash with a tech to see the leaking and make sure it is fixed.
After they raised it, it no longer leaks in car washes. I have run it through twice, without even a drop of water leaking.
Good luck, and if you have trouble, make sure they look at the height of the rear of the sunroof, as others have also mentioned that as where the problem was.
