Has anyone had water collect under the backseat?  We had a bad storm on Sat. night and Sunday morning I found water under my rear seat.  There was still some water droplets down the rear pillar behind the back door, you know where the rear airbags are.  I only found this because the day earlier I had to put the back seats down for storage and I didn't put the seats back up until Sunday morning. 
Does anyone know about this, I'm off to the dealer, there doesn't appear any cracks in the roof rails or the roof track.

The obvious thing would be window/door cracked -- but we'll assume you already checked those.  It may not be in that actual area that the leak is occuring - do you have any modifications to your roof or body?

I was gonna say besides what Brian mentioned ...You could have stood outside with a hose and blasted the door seals and seen if any came in..but I'm guessing like Brian said, that you had a window down or a door ajar....

Crazy thing no windows down, no cb and doors were shut.  The only mod to the roof was the addtion of Hummer's roof rails.  So there can't be anything wrong with them.  I didn't get to go to the dealer today but I'll keep everyone posted.  I did put a hose on the roof by both rear doors  and let in run for awhile but couldn't see any water coming in, could there be a leak by the sunroof that would for the water to run down the side by the backdoor.
The water I saw was actually behind the molding behind where the rear door seals are. Where the upper and lower trim panels meet, than the water was coming out from the bottom trim panel where it meets the carpet under the rear seat.  I'm going to blast the sunroof with the hose and see if that does anything.

Even though I disagree, and think sunroofs are great, it's not worth collecting on that bet anyways!

Sorry, I don't drink wine either!  BTW, what kind of women do you hang out with where you can take a shot like that!

Wow, really wasn't expecting to come across one of the top two or three nastiest things I've ever seen when I clicked on this thread.  Thanks Dennis! 

As for the water leak/sunroof issue, I'm starting to agree with Dennis about the sunroofs not being worth it.  This is the second sunroof I've had in a row with issues - the first one cost me some serious $$$ when is clogged and flooded the amp in the back of my X5.  On the H3,  I just had it in for the second time to find a leak that was coming in by the passenger side B-pillar.  Every time it rained really hard, the pass. front seatbelt would get soaked.  So far, the second trip fixed it.  I'm guessing that's the issue.  It's a shame cause the huge sunroof on the H3 is very nice this time of year in NJ...
