Angry 2010 Dodge Sport leaking water in cab!

I bought a brand new 2010 Dodge Sport and soon discovered that it leaks under the back seat compartment, rear window, overhead console, and both front and passenger grab handles. Have taken to Dodge 3 times to fix and guess what it still leakes. Dodge is refusing to replace my vehicle and offered me $1500. what a joke. This leaking issue occures when it rains over night or is sitting for 8 hours. Does not leak in the car wash. Oh, and the water has blown out both door speakers twice. Anyone else out there have this issue?

First, do you have a sunroof?

If so the drain tubes

If not then it is coming in at

1. Sat Antenna
2. 3rd brake light

Window seals can not be it simply because they are to low to hit all the areas you described, well for the most part.

^^ Sounds like drain tubes. Front tubes run down A pillar (hence the water leaking at the grab handles....you'll probably find the kick panels at the bottom damp if you pull them off too....and its probably running across the head liner to the overhead console), and the rear is probably the rear tubes most likely.

Sorry about your luck...I have had sunroofs leak before, and had all the leaks in all the same spots you describe (this was not a Dodge vehicle though). 15 trips to the dealer, and even an outside leak pro company called in. I finally gave up and sold the vehicle. Haven't owned a vehicle with a sunroof since!
