My car is leaking inside

my a/c started leaking about 2 weeks ago in the passenger side where there feet go so ithought it was the runoff tube had come undone(think its called the runoff tube ) anyways i fixed that with no prob but then today it started leaking again today but this time it was in a different spot... it was leaking out of the little hole in the a pillar where it says airbag i was like WTF!!! so i felt the spot where the fabric starts on the a pillar and it was soaking wet... so does anybody know what is going on and i might add that it has been raining for about 2 weeks straight where i live

XM or Onstar antenna? If not, i'd start taking a look at the door seals. Actually, i'd bring it to the dealer and let them deal with it since it's still under warranty.

Take a garden hose and have a friend spray the outside of the car while you sit inside and try to see where the leak is coming from. That helps a lot to find the source of leaks..

That won't cause a leak around the a-pillar though.

Thats the rubber weather seal.. check and make sure it's making a proper seal against the door. If it is, check and make sure the window isnt leaking around the seams.. Easiest way like i said is to have someone hold a hose over the area while you sit inside the car to check for water entering the car.

here's a link to the TSB for the water leak in the pass floorboard. Not sure about the A-pillar leaking unless it's your windshield leaking or the weatherstrip on the door opening.
