Hey Trey. I get water slightly dripping through the rear driver's-side window when we go through the power wash car wash. I'm not sure if that's normal for the H3 though. I assume any car will leak with enough pressure. Was it really bad rain or just a minor shower?

It wasn't a bad storm and my driveway is sloped so as it ran off it went right over that side of the sunroof. I would still tell everyone to get the sunroof I like the size of it, just keep your eye on it and make sure it closes properly.

Hey everyone with sunroofs check them. My driver's side rear part of the sunroof was down about 1/4" in the fully closed postioned. The water ran in there and down behind the rear door panels. The dealer had to adjust it and clean it out, he only found a few pine needles in the track. He believes that just from normal use that it got a little out of adjusment. I posted in under the new title because I didn't want to see those ladies again. Thanks HummerGUy and everyone else for having me check the sunroof.
Interesting observation about the alignment. I was going to post a thread about this 1 week ago when we received some torrential rains. The window channels were full of water and poured out all over the place, including the handsfree mic baffle. I thought it might have been a fluke, due to the 30-year floods we had in the KC area. This morning when it rained... repeat performance! Off to the dealer we go! I still like sunroofs, even if I have to drive with my umbrella open!

...just a quick follow-up from my telephone conversation with our service department. Service manager mentioned that there are drain tubes on each channel. He thinks they're clogged. I plan to have him show me where they are located so that I can do some preventive maintenance.

Service manager said that my drain tubes weren't clogged, but it is a good idea to check them if you can. I'm supposed to get rain today I'll see if it is fixed. The sunroof on my driver's side is still down a little bit, passenger side is flush with roof. When you run your finger over it on the driver's side you can feel the roof just a bit, it's not flush like the other side.

Now wait just a second here. Is it possible, that Dennis just created a almost-duplicate post? Didn't he just say that a few posts before this? I, I am flabbergasted, dumbfounded and perturbed, as well as discombobulated. One could almost say that would make Dennis, for just a second, a Post Whore
