Purchased a 2020 GMC Elevation 10 days ago and just noticed the back passenger window leaking. This is my 2nd time washing it.. first by hand and the second time about 90 minutes ago at the car wash. Came back from my first road trip and needed the extra power to wash off these juicy bugs or else I’d be hand washing it.. When hand drying I noticed the leak. Took a closer look and you can see the fresh water. This gets wilder. You can also see the previous water stains from possibly my first wash or possibly from the rain storm last night here in NEPA that brought 2+ inches of rain and heavy winds. Interesting to see what happens next time it rains. (Hopefully Monday)
My previous vehicle was 2015 GMC Sierra and it’s funny b/c back in March my transmission went. As I was completing a full detail prior to trade in.. I noticed water stains on the passenger side ceiling. Actually, there were layers of different shades of water stains telling me it’s been going on for some time. I did not have A sliding track window on this truck. Couldn’t believe it. Have no clue how long it’s been happening but I spent countless yet stressful hours upon hours wondering how I kept getting moisture in my truck all these years. Now it all makes sense.
However, this seems to be a problem with GM models. How is this not a recall? I’m definitely calling the dealer next week but mingya, Mingya! Ridiculous.. quite a few trucks on this page with specifically the same location and amount of water. Mine included but this is an expensive price tag.. mhmm seems to be a common trend. Wonder how many others have no clue it’s even happening . Seems like it could be an easy fix but then again, easy fixes have a tendency to turn into worse problems once you start pulling factory pieces apart.
