During rains, leaks in the left rear in spare tire compartment, affecting the carpet, and flooding the back storage compartment.
- Griffin, GA, USA
Water leak from sunroof traveled down the driver's pillar and through the dash, onto the floor. This caused an electrical shortage which caused the emergency brake warning bell to sound. Water was also leaking out of the curtain airbag badge on the pillar potentially compromising the airbag. Water soaked the driver's carpet and mats. Now the dashboard indicator light for RPM is operating sporadically.

My 2008 Saturn Outlook (w/sunroof) engine continues to run with key off position (see GM bulletin #08-08-57-003C [seam seal] dated July 15, 2011) water leak at A-pillar caused various electrical problems such as engine continues to run with key off/possible no crank/no start/communication loss/various electrical concerns, which was the result of a water leak on the ip bec from the sunroof drain hose that exits through the vehicle at the plenum and re-enter through the "unsealed seam at the front of the dash". this can effect 2007-2010 Outlook; 2007-2012 GMC acadia; 2008-2012 Buick enclave. GM only covers this to 3 yrs/36K mile warranty then GM requires owner to pay $400 to repair their engineering defect...

2008 Saturn Outlook xr w/dual sunroofs leaks water through inside corner pillars, which house seat belt and air bags. The water could compromise the effectiveness of the air bags and the seatbelt retractors. It will also leak onto drivers floor, through electronic components, which could cause loss of functions. Multiple reports have been made. Many owners have reported as many as 6 or more visits to have the condition corrected under warranty, to no avail. GM apparently stonewalls complainants until the warranty has expired, and refuses to find a permanent fix for this problem. Problem has been ongoing in Saturn Outlook and other similar GM models since 2007. Water enters the roof, and runs to the lowest corner of the vehicle, depending on how it is parked. Although Saturn is now defunct, there remain many of these vehicles in use. GM should be required to develop a permanent fix, and recall all potentially affected vehicles to correct this dangerous ongoing condition.
