Water in floor pass side ???

Had a fairly heavy rain the other day, Pass side floor had a lot of water, looked at weatherstrip around windshield, there is a couple of places that looks like could be the culprit.

Is there a problem area that needs to be addressed? I don't want to go guessing and smearing sealer everywhere.

Thanks..Bill

We had that problem repaired under warranty on our 06 back in 2007.

Found it, fixed it, cleaned both surfaces with brake cleaner( after I removed the old adhesive) the cover had sunk in/shrunk a bit so I put an extra dose of sealer/adhesive on it, was not satisfied with the way it looked, did a (McGiver fix) duct tape all around over the adhesive and centered on the edge of the panel. Less than 1 hour. If it does it again, I will put sheet metal in the place of the rubber.There may be a market for such a fix.

Thanks Guys for the help, knowing where you're headed beats guessing...Bill

Somewhere in the thread I linked, I believe someone spoke of using sheet aluminum.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Have you considered trying to find the leak at a dealership? Also, if you would like, I can check your VIN for any applicable warranties, recalls, or programs. Please send me the VIN and mileage to my inbox for info.

As stated in another post...heater fan started squealing, replaced it with the one that has the adapter built on it (Factory Air Part No. 75778). Took about 1/2 hour.
