Leaking roof

My oem roof rack is leaking. It is oem i got it from the dealership. And its leaking like crazy on my driverside piller. The middle piller. Any thoughts?

 

Who installed it?
Gonna need to pull it off and get those holes siliconed up.

 

Update. I took a hose. And poured water down the roof rack where the swivel bar clicks into place for about 15-20 minutes and no leaks. You guys got any answers?

 

Water could be coming from anywhere up there. It's almost inevitable that those things eventually leak - I would take it apart and make sure everything is sealed up good with some silicon or some rubber/neoprene washers. Just did this with our Outback, replaced each rubber washer with a new one and siliconed any trouble spots. Good luck!

 

Try spraying the brake light on the roof from different angles. Also your windshield

 

I did all of that. I sorayed the brake light. I also sprayed in, on top, sides, etc. but it hasnt been leaking. Im afraid if taking it off cuz it was such a hassle going it im afraid i might strip a screw. And the leak was at the b pillar on driver and c pillar on driver as well.

 

No offense but seems like you need to take it to someone. If it’s a dealer install I’m sure they’ll repair no charge since yours is a 19.

Water is simple, it runs down and takes easiest path. If you’re scared to take it apart then take it to someone else to fix it. If you’re willing to work on it yourself then start taking it apart until you have accessed all holes in the roof (assuming this is definitely the origin of the leak). Once apart put silicon in hole and reattach and let dry. Be a clean and professional look and stop the leak.

 

I installed it but it is oem from toyota will they still fix it

 

Just don't tell them you installed it.

 

If you tell them you installed it they will blame the install, fix it, and probably charge you.

If you installed it you obviously know how to install it, I'd take a look and silicon everything up.

 

How about the shark fin for the sat radio.

 

Would that leak to the driver side pillars?

 

Im assuming the rack bolts on the driver side are leaking cuz the pillars were wet on driver side.

 

Did you silicone the holes when u put the rack on. If not this is your problem

 

The shark fin wouldn't.

I had the same issue with dripping from the driver's side pillar, water was coming out of the bolt hole cover on the left side there. I took off the bolts, added a bunch of silicone sealant into the holes before I bolted them in, and put them back on. It hasn't leaked since.

It only happened in really heavy rain; I couldn't reproduce it with a hose either.
