This is the third time the vehicle has been brought in to the dealer for the same problem. The first time they said the forward drain tubes(2) which run down the A pillars were clogged and they cleared them. This seemed to fix the problem. After a couple months we had a heavy rain and the front foot wells filled with water again while the vehicle was parked overnight. The second time they said the drain tube was disconnected from the top fitting and they reinstalled it. Again apparent fix. Another rainstorm and driver foot well filled with water overnight. The vehicle went out of original warranty and they charged me $250 for 2+ hours of labor to "diagnose the problem" because the extended service they sold me for $3200 didn't cover it. This time they said it apparently was a leak in the Driver's door vapor barrier seal. Bottom line, to fix it would cost me an additional $650+ because the extended warranty plan, which they also sold me for another $3000+, didn't cover it.
