Has anyone had a leak on the driver's side A pillar. Discovered that at the base of the pillar where it meets the windshield that water is present when it rains. It does not appear to be alot in that the carpet is dry but if you place a piece of paper in the corner, the edge that drops below the dash becomes wet.

Any suggestions as to cause and remedies?

It's either one (or both) of the sunroof drain hoses is clogged or one (or more) of the marker lights on the roof are leaking.

Sometimes the plastic rail under marker lights gets warped and the marker light never sets right, and it needs to be replaced. Getting mine replaced after the third time the marker light was leaking after the dealership said it was "fixed".

I had the same problem, I have a light bar on my truck, the harness of the light bar are routed by the driver's side roof marker and it was leaking there into the cabin, they (dealer) replaced the rubber booth under the roof marker and the leak stopped

Thanks for the advice. I live in CT and we had tropical downpours yesterday. Fortunately, the floor area on the drvers side was dry. Seems like the leak is minor but will have the dealer look at it.

I did check the drain hole at the sunroof and it was clear. Weird that the amount of water is so little, which is good but might make it difficult to locate the source. Don't have much faith in the dealer spending the time to source the leak.

Dan, I'm in Bethel. I think the leak is from the windshield. I was hosing off the bugs splat from my windshield last night. Didn't even spray the top. The piece of paper I leave in the corner was wet along the bottom. Seems to suggest that water is coming in around the windshield edges. Can't rule out market lights either. But definitely not from the Sun Roof.

Long over due reply...it wasn't the A pillar...but the leak seems to come from the seal around the bottom edge of the window where the vin tag is located. water collects along the inner bottom edge where dash and and window come together. Needs to be alot of rain or heavy winds to enter.

I will probably leave alone since opening up can lead to more problems. May try some sealer along outside gasket.
