Some Volvo V50 owners report experiencing sunroof leaks into the driver's floorboard due to clogged drain tubes, which can lead to water accumulation and soaked floor mats. These leaks often manifest as wet headliners, water dripping from the headliner, damp carpets, or water pooling in the footwells. Owners can identify a clogged drain tube by pouring water into the sunroof tray and observing whether the floor becomes wet, indicating a blockage. It is crucial for owners to maintain clean sunroof drain tubes, as the sunroof is not entirely watertight and relies on functional drainage to prevent water intrusion. Regular maintenance and inspection of the drainage system are recommended to avoid these issues in the future.
