Just interested if anyone has had any water leaks in their Dakotas. If so, where and was it resolved? I have a water leak somewhere on the passenger side firewall. I took it to two different shops and still has not been detected. Truck is still at the shop.

 

is it leaking on the inside? if its leaking on the outside dripping on to the street, im guessing you use A/C....

 

I got a leak on the windsield on top of the driver side. When it rains and the truck is parked it goes inside my headliner. I went to the dealership and the told me that is covered by the waranty but they need about 2 days to fix it!!!! I will take her in next week!!

 

It's leaking in the inside. I first noticed it while cleaning my truck. The carpet felt kind of damp so I pulled out the trimming and lifted the carpet, there was about 2 inches of water in it.

 

I had a leak at the top of the drivers side windshield, it leaked into the pillar and threw the lower screw hole on the holy s#*t handle. Resolved not to sure but we just got a ton of rain and no leak so i'm hoping it stays that way.

 

i would check your A/C system. maybe the evap section has a crack or a broken line or something. that stuff gets real wet when its humid outside

 

I had a leak on my 01 passenger side and found out that the water was coming in the back window. I found out by spaying water on the truck with a hose, and recaulked around the window myself, leak is gone.

 

My passenger floor used to get wet on my 04 and 05. The dealer said it was an AC issue on both of them. Something about a drain tube. Both were fixed under warranty.

 

This happens when my vehicle is parked, does the water enter the vehicle only when the AC is running?

 

I got my truck back today, still leaking! I was able to take some good pictures of where the leak was coming from since it rained pretty much all day, maybe some of you guys can make some suggestions.

Well, the first picture is of the floorboard of my truck, the second is of a small puddle on the floorboard of the passenger side, the third picture is of where the leak is coming from. As you can see it looks like a small stream of water just pouring into the passenger side. I took this picture laying on the passenger side floorboard, aiming the camera up the firewall. The foam on the picture is the body seal on the passenger side.

After it stopped raining, I popped the hood to see if I can pinpoint any locations where the water might be entering the truck, I did not see any wet areas from looking straight at the firewall with the hood open. I suspect the water is coming somewhere underneath the cowl. I had sealed the body seam from the outside with urethane about 2 months ago.

Any suggestions would be great.
