Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Malibu Limited owners report experiencing water leaks that cause wet floors and a damp trunk, leading to potential mold and rust issues. These leaks may be due to cracked seals or failed rear window seals, as well as improperly seated weatherstrips or misapplied trunk body sealant. Additionally, wet front and rear passenger floors can result from leaking sunroofs, door seals, or blocked door drains, with water entering the passenger side potentially linked to windshield issues. The presence of water can lead to rust on metal parts and promote mold growth under the carpet, while water in the trunk poses risks of short circuits and damage to the electrical system. Identifying the specific source of these leaks and conducting regular maintenance checks on seals and drainage systems are essential for preventing further water intrusion and maintaining the integrity of the Chevrolet Malibu Limited.
