Just got a phone call from my fiance...

Add another leaky 2006 HHR to the growing list!!! :censored:

Her car was parked outside overnight and after a seriously heavy rain, she woke up to a passenger floor soaked deep with rain water!

So, after reading the nearly 30+ pages in this thread, sounds like the same darn cowling / cabin filter issue.

I did not have time to read all 30+ pages of complaints yet so if there is a TSB that I can print out regarding this issue when we drop her HHR off at the dealership, it would be helpful?


:roll:

Yep... that's it... THANKS!!!

Actually ChevyMgr emailed me exactly what I was looking for right after my post...

Thanks all...


(a carpool saves gas... but a pool in your HHR sucks a$$)

So true.

After having two blower motors replaced (burnt out by water), and having a soaked carpet on the passenger's side, My dealer finally put in a "deflector" as per his service bulliten.
Well, no more wet carpet and the blower motor is still working.
That's all I care about.
Now if only I could get a set of working rotors and calipers that don't warp when applied during rain......

I had this problem and it was the body seam to the right of the butyl patch under the wiper panel. Sealed this and now everything is dry.

I fixed my own leak at the cowl.

Tooter, maybe you should work at a dealership. :thumb:

Don't have any certifications. I have thought about it tho.
Back in '94 or so when I worked at AutoZone I was approached by a service manager at a Nissan dealer about working there.

I could kick myself in the A$$ for not at least talking to them.
