Hi, my name is Devin. I am an auto repair expert with the Car Genius team here at RepairPal. I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your vehicle.
A rain leak in your Mariner's driver and passenger floor area, especially with a sunroof, could be due to a few different issues. A common culprit would be clogged sunroof drains, which can cause water to overflow into the cabin. Over time, debris can block the drainage channels, leading to leaks. It could also be a problem with the seals around the sunroof or the doors, allowing water to seep in during heavy rain.
To address this, you might start by checking the sunroof drains. Typically, these are located at the corners of the sunroof frame. You can try using compressed air or a flexible wire to clear blockages. Additionally, inspect the rubber seals around the sunroof and doors for any cracks or wear; if damaged, they might need replacement.
If the problem persists, you may want to consult a professional to assess the issue more thoroughly, as water intrusion can lead to organic growth in the vehicle.
