Front window leaking.

Anyone elses front window leaking on the drivers side right at the top. I noticed water running down where you have your grab handle. Appears to be entering right on the weather stripping above the window, Headliner was just soaked.

My 1991 had this issue,
seals.... Have them fix it...... They bent the $h.. out of my trim fixing it twice.

Take a HIGH pressure garden hose, after they fix it, and it's dry.
And test it.... Mine still leaked.... 2nd try OK.

I had water coming out of both grab handles. Blew out the sunroof drain holes with a compressor and has been fine since.

I am starting to lean towards a problem with the moonroof setup. Thaks.

Open the sunroof all the way and you will see them in the corners of the frame.

Maybe it's a combination of the sunroof drain issue and the door weatherstripping. I don't have the sunroof, but in a really strong wind-driven rain I'll sometimes get a very minor leak from the driver's side near the grab handle. A few drops only, no serious soaking.

Good info. I will monitor mine to make sure I don't have any problems.

Opened moonroof. Poured 1 cup of water down drain hole on the drivers side. Water disappeared like it should. Functioned moonroof several times (4-5). Took garden hose to moonroof and area for approx. 20 minutes. Doesnt appear to be leaking yet. I wonder if it is just a dry or formed seal. Truck sits for months at a time.
