Default During hard rain window leaks.

During a heavy rain water will run down the inside of my windshield. I'm pretty sure it's been replaced. Is there a way to seal it. Water doesn't run down the windshield at carwashes but has in the last few heavy rainstorms. I had water drip on my leg out of the driver side A-pillar....any ideas?

Same here last time we had a really hard rain storm i was on my way to work (3rd Shift going in at midnight) and i was getting wet. it was pitch dark so i couldnt tell where it was coming from then in the morning my pillar was all wet and dripping from the top screw. Only did it that one time tho.

There's a TSB for this from 2004: 23-003-04

Symptom/Condition:

Water may enter the vehicle through the secondary door seal retainer or the roof seam, on to the headliner and run down the “A” pillar coming out at the grab handle.
