What Causes Car Leakage?

[JoannaAnn]

Possible causes of car leakage include: poor sealing of the trunk seal strip, aging or cracking of the car's waterproof rubber strip leading to leakage, excessive dust and debris in the sunroof drainage channel blocking the drain hole, or misalignment of the rubber plugs embedded in the floor panel holes. Trunk water accumulation: This is usually caused by poor sealing of the trunk seal strip or tail light seal strip. There is a drainage hole above the fuel tank cap, and since the fuel tank opening faces upward, it is prone to water accumulation. Car leakage issues should be addressed at a 4S shop or professional auto repair shop. Rubber strip aging: With prolonged use, the waterproof rubber strips around doors and trunk openings may age or crack, allowing rainwater to seep into the car through these gaps, resulting in leakage. Visit a repair shop to replace the rubber strips. Drain hole blockage: Sunroof leakage is relatively common, where heavy rain outside leads to dripping inside. The main cause is blockage of the sunroof drainage holes by accumulated dust and debris, causing overflow. You can inspect and clean this yourself.
