Why is the sunroof of the new Focus leaking?
1 Answers
The reasons for the sunroof leakage in the new Focus are poor rainwater drainage, damaged sunroof sealing strips, and roof deformation. Poor rainwater drainage: The sunroof drain outlet is clogged, causing rainwater to drain poorly and gradually seep into the car. This phenomenon is mainly due to the owner's lack of regular cleaning of the roof, allowing debris to flow with rainwater into the drain outlet and clog it. For such issues, you can use a wire to make a hook to reach into the drain hole and pull out the debris; alternatively, you can go to a repair shop and use an air gun to blow out the debris from the drain hole. Damaged sunroof sealing strips: The sunroof sealing strips are made of rubber and will age over time. Repeated friction from the sunroof glass can cause damage, leading to poor sealing and leakage during rainy weather. In such cases, it is important to regularly check the aging condition of the sealing strips and replace them promptly if they are damaged. Choose sealing strips with good performance and resistance to aging and corrosion. Roof deformation: When the car is impacted, the body may deform. If the repair is not done properly, it can result in poor sealing and leakage. During the repair of accident-damaged vehicles, it is essential to strictly adhere to the original vehicle standards; otherwise, parts may not fit properly, creating potential leakage hazards.
