Ford Galaxy - roof leak

[jim2007]

I have a flood in the passenger footwell and the leak appears to be coming from the roof as there is a damp patch there (appears to be just under top of windscreen) and then the flood appears under the rubber mat on the floor. Is this something that can be sealed up easily or could it be a different problem?

If you have a sunroof it could be blocked drains, usually in the corners of the sunroof well.

No it does not have a sun roof, wondering if Autoglass would charge to take a look?

I have just discovered the receipt from when the screen was replaced and it carries a 5 year warranty! Fingers crossed!

I had a similar problem on my Shogun, and couldn't find the drain holes. I solved the problem by cutting a small piece out of the bottom of the rubber door seal, hasn't done it since. That was maybe 5 years ago!

If you have a had a screen replaced, it more than likely will have developed a leak , it could have been fitted in damp conditions or a bad drop in or could have rust that has pushed the bonding leading to a leak , Take it back to where you had it fitted , they will leak test it for you , a word of warning , the galaxy if i remember correctly has a electric box of tricks under the passenger seat , make sure that stays dry or you may have loads of problems !! If I were testing this I would check the sun roof drain holes , open the roof , get some water in a jug , pour it into the corner and it should flow out of the drainage channels in the bottom of the wing , check both sides, if its blocked it will back up ! easy fix , with a thin peice of wire, as for the screen if its that insist that it comes out under the warranty agreement! as a rule of thumb , if you are a nice customer and flexible to leave it with them , they will sort it for you . Best of Luck !
