Should I get my windshield replaced/resealed? It keeps leaking water on the dash
What is your question?
I found the light buttons area above the rear view mirror soaked, with little water in the cup holders. I have did everything I know, even to getting on the hood and putting window sealant in the edges inside and out. The windshield isn’t cracked or nothing, just water been seeping through a couple times .I don’t know if some hail hit the top of the truck because when I felt the glass it wasn’t wet. This is the 4th time, I don’t have time I work too much.
What makes this problem better or worse?
It helps for a few when I tape a trash bag over the radio/ac and put a towel on that.

If your 2011 Chevrolet Traverse is repeatedly leaking water onto the dash, and you've already tried sealing it yourself, it’s likely time to consult a professional. Water leaking in from above the rearview mirror suggests a potential issue with the windshield seal or even the roof's drainage system, especially if hail might have caused any damage. Since you've attempted various fixes and the problem persists, a pro can inspect the installation, check for any hidden cracks, or look at the drainage paths to ensure everything is functioning properly. A proper reseal or replacement might save you more headaches in the long run.
