Default I give up (for now)

Have had some water on my rubber floor mat directly after rain storms (not every rain mind you). I have literally soaked the cowl area, upper winshield area, around the tops of the doors and third light and CANNOT get a drip of water inside the cab. Wife says I using too much water!!

After re-reading my post I guess it sounds vague. I have had water drip down on my rubber floorboard under the radio-heater control area after a rain. (again not after every rain though). Trying to isolate where this seepage is coming from I have hosed many gallons on water on each section-cowl, upper windshield etc. Pulled the cowl covers off-no corrosion or cracks. Like my post says--I give up for now.

So its never done this on a normal day? With no rain? Because sometimes the a/c can make moisture drip down to the floor. Why...i don't really know. My dodge 2500 does it

That's not a recall, it's a TSB. Take them back to the dealer. They just have to plug in a dongle and reflash your nuts.

Well I believe I found the culprit. I pulled the radio and trim out and the junction between the antenna and radio hook-up was RUSTED. Rained like heck last night and today and lo and behold a drip of water rolled out of the antenna wire. Now to find how the water is getting into the wire.
