522jake Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 I just dropped my '04 SS off at the dealer, for the third time in 2 months. I have developed a leak that allows water to leak into the cab behind the dash and along the "A" pillar. It soaks the carpet and has now been seen in the fuse block on the driver's side. The windshield, dash, seals, roofmount antenas, and firewall have all been checked. The dealer and GM customer service have never heard of this. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas? There are no mods to this truck and it is only 9 months old. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 its not coming in around the front glass? thats weird, but its hard to find the source when your dealing w/ water leaking... could be coming in anywhere and running along pannels before it stops. Good luck on getting it fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6.0ss Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Do you have the On star or the XM antenna on top, Those could leak and have water travel down the A pillar between the two sheets of metal in the roof! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
522jake Posted December 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Do you have the On star or the XM antenna on top, Those could leak and have water travel down the A pillar between the two sheets of metal in the roof! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have both xm and onstar. They say that they pulled them off and checked the seals. The windshield has been taken off and resealed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSminneapolis Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 i had a friend that had a leaky car. the could never find out where the leak came from until they realized that they people that installed his remote start did not put the rubber gromet back into place.... it is probably something stupid that is causing the problem...

BigTsBadSS Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 I had a leak coming from my third break light my whole headliner got wet. The dealer put some lock tight on the screws and that sovled the problem the screws kept walking out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dklapper Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 I had a Suburban and they found the A/C drain tube clogged and it soaked the front floor on both sides, the car was never left outside so it wasnt leaves or anything. I was thinking that was the windshield leaking since thats usually only on the right side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynewname1 Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 I also am having troubles with leaking. Mine is happening somewhere in the extened cab area. It gathers right behind the driver seat and against the step molding. I have taken to the dealership to have it fixed but both times I have taken it in. The water tester guy has not shown up. So I will let this go on till spring and then take it in a demand brand new carpet and other free shit for the hassle.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Mine leaked in the cab area where the two doors meet one time about two weeks ago. I don't drive it in the rain much, so I don't know how bad it is, but I'm going to take it into the dealership soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woffski Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 I've noticed a leak in the cab, behind the driver's seat by the doors. I dont drive it in the rain and most times it is stored in a garage. I dont know what the deal is. I guess I'll have to take it to the dealer and see what happens.

Xero Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 ive heard that the x-cab windows are leaky and have bad seals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 My windows don't leak a bit... it's the area where the upper latch by the back door meets the front door. I think! Its only done it once! It may have been a fluke... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbo Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 see, now i know i'm not crazy, i have 2004 z71 tahoe, and i have a water leak, its on the driver side not the passenger side, i havent brought mine in yet, but i think mine might b coming form the bottom of the door or the door bracket. it didnt get wet the last few times it got washed, so its not coming from up top. i noticed it when it rained, so i will check on it next time it rains, it supposed to rain this weekend. let us know what they find out 522jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
