Driverside front and back have water!

OK. It has been raining here in Lubbock for 3 days now. I left it outside for a few days to work in the garage. I got in to drive my car and I noticed some water in the driver side floorboard. I got out and looked behind the driverseat and saw standing water in the floorboard back there!!!!!! Nothing in the pass side just the driverside. The seats are dry. The headliner is dry. I have no idea where this has come from. Any ideas? Any one else have this problem? Help me Obi One!!!!!

Have them check the drivers door area where the electrical harness attaches to the body. That is where our leak occured on our SS.

I took my car to the dealer. They said that they could not find anything wrong and that it was going to cost me $300.00. I was pissed not just at the fact of the $300 but they could not find the problem. The advisor said that there was a bulliten about the A/C leaking from the drain tube and that they would fix it under that problem code. Still don't know what was wrong!!!!!!

Water Leaking On To Floor & Sunroof

This has happened to me also, 2006 HHR still covered under extended warranty and my dealer claims it is not covered any rubber or weather related item not covered..so much for extended warranty. I explained to them that hundreds of other HHR owners were experiencing the same problem, they found the problem which was some rubbber oval shaped cover about the size of a football which is accessible from the area behind the windsheild wipers, I think they called it a dog collar or cowling or something like this. This was about $280.00 to replace.

I also had a similar experience with the sunroof with leaks that soaked part of my headliner leaving stains, which the dealer did remove with some chemical. The problem was one of the drain tubes (it has 2) one on each forward corner, that was going to cost $300.00 to replace the tube I said forget it I'll unplug it myself.
