I bought the car in late 2008, it has leak every since the first time it rained. I have taken to the dealer more than a few times. The only solution they give me is to seal shut the sunroof. The dealer believe that is the problem. It used to leak from the sunroof but now every time it rains it leaks and a lot and from all over the place. It has severe water damage and the car smells awful because it is wet all the time. My car only has 77,000 miles and I was hoping it will last me a while but now I'm not sure. The vehicle has manufacture defective roof drains.

2 drilled holes in the sunroof are allowing water to flow throughout vehicle wiring harnesses. Water has settled in engine and harnesses. In my case, the water shorted out the amplifier. Worried that this could also create electrical fire or other malfunction(s).

- Hinckley, OH, USA

Water leaking after rain storm down to floor mats on both the driver and passenger side. We had our windshield recently replaced back in may of this year, so I thought that this was maybe the issue and took back to the glass repair shop. Upon investigating further, they found that the issue was happening to many of the GMC vehicles on the electrical recall. I went to GM's website and entered my VIN and nothing about this issue on our personal vehicle. In our small community there have been two house fires, major damage caused by the electrical system ignition etc on GM vehicles. We do not want to be the next victim.

Water sloshing under the glove box, and getting on passenger's shoes. Pulled plastic housing around blower motor to find it completely filled with water (same as described at this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?V=fnykjlhusxi). Turns out the sunroof drain is clogged and the interior is filling with water (like in this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?V=mxzygdlln-U). The battery compartment is full of water.

Water leaks in car when it rains, over the past 4yrs my car has been back to dealership for same problem, in which they fixed at no charge to myself and once again I am experience the same leak when it rains. They safety concerns are very big because of all the electrical wires that the water may be coming in contact with, including the air bags. I have contacted dealership and GMC and they both say that I am responsible for the repairs this time. The problem is their design and I know that they are aware of it because of the many, many, many other customers having the exact same problem. Something must be done.

First incident occurred when we went to a family reunion for the weekend. We were at a camp ground in a cabin and did not enter the car all weekend. It rained all weekend very hard at times. When we did enter the car to go home noted approx. 1 inch of water to the floor of both driver and passenger side of vehicle. At the time I thought maybe I just didn't have the sun roof closed all the way. Dried it up and didn't think much more about it. Car is garage kept so most of the time it is not exposed to rain. Another day took my son to dentist, it was raining very hard that day on the way home water started pouring out of 3rd row light then noted sounds of water splashing around in headliner. I was able to dry it up and mentioned it when I had an oil change. I was told the drain tubes were probably blocked and did a check on those with no problems. As I said the car is garage kept so fortunately it has not been exposed to a lot of rain. However this week we have had a lot of rain the car has been parked out side while I work. Yesterday when I came home I again noted large amount of water in floor boards. Dried it up again with plan to take to dealer on next day off. Today when I came home from work I had placed towel in sunroof area in case of more rain, towel was soaked dripping down onto seats floor was again soaked. When I got home turned key off, removed key but car continued to run, sputtered for approx. 2-3 mins then shut off. Started it up again and shut it off removed the key and it did the same. Heard a continued humming sound coming from engine. At this point I had worked all night so just left it. I will take to dealer tomorrow but it is out of warranty. I have researched this problem and found hundreds of complaints. No fix by GMC.

Fluid leaked from master cylinder to power booster no visible leaks repaired at my expense about a week later a bulletin from GM that was to extend my warranty to 10 year 120000 miles. There is a process in place to return my money. No safety recall ! both front struts have gone out. The air conditioner is causing problems because of off and on cooling. All of this is with in 55000 miles, the car has 55055miles as of this dated. There seems to be a process of no safety recalls but to issue extended warranty. We all know what recalls do to sales.

Problem #1 of 3: during heavy rains, water would leak in through the sun visors on both sides. Took it to the dealership several times. They said the drain tubes from the sunroof were clogged, they blew it out, when that didn't work, they charged me to put it longer tubes, when that didn't work, they said it was because they only replaced the front tubes, not the back. Problem #2 of 3: when driving through water puddles at low speed I lose power steering for a brief time (which is troublesome when turning). Problem #3 of 3: two warning lights for airbags come on everytime I start the vehicle. I can push a button each time to make the written warning go away, but the red light with a picture stays on. Not sure if the airbags would deploy or not.

- Savoy, IL, USA

Water leaks in front driver and passenger side floor boards, hard to tell where the leak is occurring. Water leaks everytime it rains and drips down onto the wiring and airbags. This causes the gas and brake pedals to become slick posing a safety issue. We bought the vehicle used and this is the first few times we've noticed it. Water leaking on the wiring system cant be good everyone knows water and electricity do not mix.

- Appomattox, VA, USA

We were parked with the back end up on a slope, when we went down onto level ground a large amount of water came in between our windshield and ceiling- it poured onto our passenger side dash. We thought we got all the water soaked up right away. The next morning our car was making a clicking sound and wouldn't start. It wouldn't give the key back. When we jumped it- it wouldn't shut off. We had to unhook the battery- very dangerous. This went on for days.

Our vehicle sat out in the rain for several hours because we were at our daughter's sporting event in another town. When we came back to our vehicle to drive home, we noticed the carpet was wet and when my husband pulled forward water began to come out of both the third row light and seatbelts. We did our best to clean the water up and planned on contacting the dealership as soon as we could. We drove the car to work the following morning as this is our main vehicle and when my husband shut off the car he noticed that it was making a strange noise. When he tried to restart the car it would not start. We attempted to jump the car, but it would not turn over. We ended up contacting a towing company to take the car to the local dealership. After a month of our car being out of commission, GM and the dealership have determined that there is extensive damage and we will need to have the wiring and circuit boards replaced at a cost of $6000. GM has completely washed theirs hands of this and continues to say it is an environmental issue and we didn't maintain the sunroof properly (although no documentation was given to inform us that this needed to happen) and clearly they know of the design flaw since they recalled it once for a leaky roof (we had the recall done). There are documented mold issues (which make people sick), airbags that have quit working, defroster motor issues in northern states, in addition to a complete vehicle failure while driving in an undesirable neighborhood. Here is a link to edmonds.com where there are many, many complaints. townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.F1E12D1.
