Idk if there is a common problem like this, but I've noticed that everytime it rains, my car gets tons of water in the cabin on the floor on the rear passenger side. Any ideas on where to start?

Thanks

Is the window rolled up all the way and does it make a tight seal all the way around the door. You can check this with a garden hose. Also does it have a sunroof, if it does how does the weather stripping look.

i'd also check the sealing of the rear hatch window, my buddies '92 camry has a leaking rear window that will puddle the backseat floorboard before the rain hits the car.

All my seals look good, its just weird cause the rear passenger floor is the only place that gets wet

have someone run a hose over the passenger side while you sit inside the car. quickest way to find a leak.
