    Rainwater leaking inside the cabin?

    Hey everyone. Has anyone ever had leaking issues of rain inside the cabin on the passenger side front and rear seats? Could it be the weatherstripping? And if so, does anyone have a guide to properly replacing it? Thanks

    Okay. Will do. To give a better idea of where it's wet. The floor mat is wet on the passenger front seat. It looks like it's coming in by the plastic kick_____ by the door. The rear seat is wet near the rear windowshield where the seat belt comes out of. I hope that adds a little clarity.

    Check the door drains which have sometimes been covered with clear tape. Check rear window rubber gasket, they can come loose on the bottom edge.

    I had that problem in my Lincoln MKS. The dealer recommended their local tint/window glass person.
    They found the sunroof drain was clogged in the right lower panel. Charged my only $100 for over
    2 hours work

    Mine leaked out of the seat belt area in the back also, passenger rear. I used compressed air and blew thru the drain holes on the moonroof when it was opened up. It helped stop the leak inside the cabin.

    Have had the driver side flood once and passenger side twice in my 13 MKS. I purge the sunroof drain lines every few months now.
