Water leak into cab

[WolfgangGullich]

Just got the truck back and went straight to the car wash. Still leaking. Seems to be wet under the dash near the passenger kick panel.

My ‘22 leaks in this exact same spot. 100% has nothing to do with a leaking cab light, antenna or windshield. Mine did it again today (raining a lot in Alaska this week).

I got into the truck after work (parked in a lot with no trees) and it was dry, started it and then heard a gross gurgling sound and then it barfed water out of the side of the passenger side kick panel all over the floor mat and carpet (carpet is soaked now).

I suspect there’s an issue where the sunroof drain hose connects to the drain in the door frame, but don’t know how to remove the kick panel to see what’s going on.

This truck is a piece of junk and I’ll likely never buy another Stellantis product. In addition to this lovely treat, my ‘22 has a ton of other issues out of warranty at 41K miles: the ZF 8HP transmission that shudders as a software update that was supposed to come almost 2 years ago has never materialized; misfires when cold; random electrical issues; heated steering wheel no longer works; BLIS randomly thinks a trailer is attached; auto wipers sometimes stop working; TPMS randomly stops working then resets a couple days later; RUST in tailgate along seam facing truck bed; paint chipped on door frame due to improper fit of door to cab (hits itself every time on bare metal…

Oh, and somehow can barely breech 13 mpg highway with normal, civilized driving.

That is frustrating. How much damage is done that you won't find until years later from all the water?? I am lucky they are replacing my headliner with the windshield. I don't have a sunroof so my leak is a little bit more limited on where it can come from.

Years ago at the dealer we worked on a dodge intrepid that had constant mildew smells. We gutted the car and replaced all the carpet. The culprit turned out to be a loose AC fitting on the firewall. I know you guys are having some very clear roof leaks somewhere, but for the guys that have it near the kick panel, check the wiper cowl area throughly. Maybe there is some kind of cable pass through that is leaking when the water runs down from the cowl area.
