I'm like %99 sure my car was broken into by the passenger side window.. before I got it. But I feel as though the previous owner didn't repair it correctly or whoever did cut corners, I don't know. Last night 1/11/18 around 9pm started to rain and continued through most of the night. This morning when I came out to go to work around 9am 1/12/18 I noticed at least 2 puddles on my floor underneath the floormat. It looks like the water is dribbling out of the speaker cover so I've taken apart the door 3 or 4 times now and I have no idea how to address it.. The plastic is torn off so there's no covering inside the door and I've pulled a substantial amount of glass out that was sitting in the bottom. I thought maybe the drains were blocked but chunks of glass but they look nice and clear and I've removed as much as I can to prevent that. My suspicion is that the window was broken and never realigned properly to seal with the door shut, but then again it's also 20 year old weather stripping. Would weather stripping be enough or am I looking at a bent tract/misaligned window?
Pictures of window in question. The driver side doesn't leak and looks much better compared to how it seals.
Bump. Happened again last night.. left the floor mat up so it didn't accumulate as much. I might add that the doors window seems loose, I can wiggle the window in and out with the door open. When you close it like you would the drivers side it sounds like you're going to break something. Can you tighten the window in the tract maybe?
