Default Persistent Front Water Leak

My 2007 GT has the persistent form of the front passeger side leak. After 3 trips to the dealership for sealant, weather-stripping, etc, I thought I had it solved until today. Driving through heavy rain, passenger side floor is soaked. Dealer "ran water over windshield for hours" -- no leaks.

I think the leak is coming from under the car or through firewall -- seems only to happen when driving. Have folks experienced a persistent problem that was ultimately solved? If so, how was it solved? I want to go back to the dealer with some specifics if at all possible.

Rains too frequently in VA not to address and there must be a solution. Thank you.

I had a similar leak on the drivers side. It only happened while driving, the dealership said water was making its way in through the wheel well. They applied a sealant kit on both sides and i have not had a problem since. Do a search and you should be able to find all the ammo you need on here, make sure you let them know you are aware of the TSB for this

I had a problem with the very same thing a while back, even before the TSB. After the TSB came out the problem was fixed. Three tries in all. Have they used the TSB to work on your problem?

Check the spot where your cabin air filter is under the hood. There is a rubber grommet in there that can get plugged and then the water can back up.
