    Is it normal for the sunroof to leak a little bit? It's not a major leak but it has been raining all day and now there are small drops of water along the back seal.

    There are drains around the frame for what gets past the seal on the glass. But no water should make it on the floor, seats, etc

    A sun roof should not leak into the cab, under any circumstance. Unless it was left open by accident.

    So they don't leak into the cab? Really what's your point? Hope yours rains all over the inside of your cab.

    I have had 4 vehicles with sunroofs, 2 domestic and 2 imports but never had an issue with any leaks. I would make the dealer aware of it just in case it becomes an issue later on.

    Yes, it is normal to see some wetness in the drip rails of the sunroof. Anyone who says their sunroof never let water into the drip channel is full of it.
