Some Chevrolet Equinox owners report experiencing water leaks in the passenger side carpet due to pin holes in the roof and trunk. These leaks can be exacerbated by other issues, such as problems with the windshield seal, clogged sunroof drains, or the condensation drain from the AC evaporator coil. Owners have noted that it is crucial to properly seal any identified pin holes to prevent water from entering the vehicle. Additionally, failing to check for other potential sources, like leaking windshields or issues with the heater core, can lead to further damage. If the leaks persist or the source remains uncertain, many owners recommend seeking professional inspection and repair from a qualified mechanic or auto body specialist. Regular maintenance, including checking drainage channels and inspecting seals, is also advised to prevent future water leaks.
