Exclamation Water Leak

My 2003 TL-S has just started to leak on the passenger side. Its leaking from the ceiling directly down onto the seat. Its at the gap where the ceiling and frame come together. Can anyone help me out? Thanks, Brent.

I am assuming no warranty correct?
if yes take it to dealership....
if no make sure you dont have a lemon and make sure there was no previous water damage to the car such as flood damage and etc....

No warranty, I think it could be coming from the sunroof but I'm not sure. The material gets wet and it will drip slightly. Its the gap between the windshield and the passenger window.

If youve had the windshield replaced, it could be a bad job of sealing at that corner

that or a plugged drain hose. watter shouldn't be getting in unless alot of water is getting past the moon roof seal (which it shouldn't be) i would look into that as well. see if its closing tightly and sealing up properly

I had the same exact problem in my 03 TL. It only happened when it rained. It was fine in the car wash. Because of that it was hard for the dealer to duplicate the problem. It went back to the dealership 3 times before they figured out it was a small crack in my sunroof under the rubber molding. They had to order a new sunroof. It fixed the problem. it never leaked after that.
