B pillar rattle, leaking sunroof and climate control issues

Hey,

I bought my parents an 2010 TSX last year and have been dealing with several issues.

First issue-mysterious muffled/hallowed "ticking/rattling" sound coming from the passenger side B-pillar. No way for sure but I think it's in the B-pillar. The noise happens when the car starts and stops, bumps, turns. You can hear it every time and its been driving me crazy trying to locate it. I wish I can be more detailed but thats really all I have. Any help or experience?

Second issue- I was putting the car through carwash today and noticed when the water hose was over the top of the car, I felt like a mist hitting my face. I thought I was crazy so I felt around the sunroof molding and noticed it was all wet. The the hose passed over the top again and I felt another mist in my face. What could have caused this? Is it because of the high pressure car wash hose? Definitely an critical issue right?

Third-Climate control. I feel like when I set it to 68 degrees (for example), it blows out cold air but not as cold as my car (06 TL) or my wife's car (06 TSX) when all the cars are set to the same temp.

Again, any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

See https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...f+leak+sgfitzs. The lemon law settlement was significant. I was able to pay of the loan. Decided to keep the car until the warranty is up and then dump it. Get your sunroof fixed ASAP, it is definitely a serious problem. Good luck.
