TUBIG sa KOtse

safe naman... yun nga lang basa... Had the same problem with my Honda before... kahit na na reseal na yung Wind shield wala pa rin...

Your car's anatomy places the fuse box, the instrument panel and majority of the switches on the left (port ) side since you drive on the right side of the road and that the driver sits on the port side. If the windshield or the left side of the cowl has a leak, it will lead to water intrusion on the major parts of the electrical circuits.
Have the leak repaired as soon as possible to avoid ghost or intermittent electrical problems.

Hindi po nabangga ang car ko. Nagpainstall po ako sa mazda last feb. dahil may crack po yung windshield ko. Binalik ko po kahapon nareseal na po yung leak sa bandang taas ng windshield. Nagtataka lang po ako bakit may tubig pa rin hanggang ngayon tapos po iniisip ko bka nabasa yung connection ng power window sa loob kya hindi na sya automatic.

perhaps, the cause of the leak wasn't the windshield?

but if it were...
obviously, the re-sealing hasn't been good.
in more modern cars (i do not know if yours qualifies), the windshield seal is via a thick sticky black compound between the glass and the metal, running the entire circumference under its edges. the windshield actually sits all throughout, on this. i do not know if this has to be replaced, everytime the glass is lifted. the rubber borloloys we see around the windshield glass, are just that. borloloys.

also, rust in the area makes for recurrent leak. one has to have the rust cut away and replaced with good metal, if the leak is to be avoided in the future.

if you have power window issues, i suspect the leak is coming, not from the windshield, but from the door.
and if your leak affects both front and rear, then you should have your front and rear doors, checked.
someones above explained this.

good luck, po.

Older cars used two piece molded rubber to mount the windshield glass panel just like the jeepneys', subsequent years, with an effort to reduce weight and reduce air drag used butyl bead adhesive between the windshield frame and the glass. Today's cars use polyurethane windshield adhesive. It is necessary that the windshield frame is free of rust, oil and debris for proper sealing and adhesion. Lifting the car at any one corner in excess of how much the jack that came with the car sometimes cause this adhesive to delaminate so that the next time it rains, it rains inside the car too. You can confirm where the leak is originating from by introducing smoke from a smoke machine. If the shop does not have a smoke machine, you can use food coloring or any dye and try to simulate rain pouring on the windshield
