Replying to: cg33 (May 12, 2005 11:16 am) I've had the same problem with my '96 Sebring conv. After taking it to a dealership twice for repair, it continued to leak. One day I was cleaning the tray behind the rear seat and noticed two weep holes, one on each side. They were both clogged with debris. I cleaned them out, and haven't had a leak since. Hope this will be of help to some of you with the same problem. Replies to this message: dannyrayscott (Mar 20, 2006 10:01 am)

Replying to: willtell (Feb 12, 2006 3:00 pm) There is a seam under the doors where the body is welded together. In this seam are weep holes or slots. Take a small piece of wire and clean these out and water can drain from the body.
#21 of 101 WATER IN CAR by jam407 Nov 02, 2004 (1:46 pm)
FOR ANYONE WHO HAS HAD THE PROBLEM OF WATER INSIDE THEIR SEBRING CONVT AFTER RAIN, THERE IS A VERY SIMPLE SOLUTION TO FIX IT. ALONG THE BODY UNDER THE DOORS ON DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE IS A FINNED PLATE THAT HAS 5 TO 6 SLOTS IN THEM. TAKE A PAPER CLIP AND CLEAN OUT SLOTS THESE ARE YOUR DRAIN HOLES. DON THIS EVERY 4 MONTHS AND YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. THIS IS COMMON ON ALL CONVERTIBLES. NOTE I HAVE A 99 JXI THAT IS A GREAT CAR, ONLY THING I HAVE ADDED TO IT IS GAS AND NEW TIRES. ALSO TO ALL OF YOU HAVING TIRE PROBLEMS PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS CAR HAS VERY LOW PROFILE TIRES WITH A TUNED SUSPENSION AND AIR PRESSURE NEEDS TO BE MAINTAINED FOR ALL THINGS TO WORK CORRECTLY
#22 of 101 2003 Sebring Conv. water leak by pcohen Mar 11, 2005 (4:22 pm)
I have found with the rains we have had in Los Angeles my Sebring is leaking water on the passenger side. I found the water is leaking between the window and the top and dropping into the seat and next to the door. I can't find the location of where the leak is originating. The top seems to be fine. When I feel around between the top and interior it's all dry.   Any clues?

Passenger side is leaking water when it rains from somewhere, don't know if its from top which is dry or under which is dry until water comes in. Sounds like water is somewhere behind back seat on pass. side. Had 2gallons in there after last rain. Now oil light comes on only after I've driven on interstate, get off and brake at a red light, if I put it in park, the light goes off, if I put in drive and hold brake, light comes on... No leaks found and oil is at right level. Replies to this message: dreamangel (Apr 16, 2005 12:28 pm) cleinmark14 (Apr 30, 2009 5:57 pm) Mr_Shiftright (May 01, 2009 8:06 am)

Replying to: lady5 (Apr 13, 2005 6:00 pm) I have had the same leaking problem as you described. I own a 2004 Sebring convertible purchased at the end of August last year and garage kept during the winter months. Not too much use there. I saw a little dampness in the October timeframe but thought that may have been from not having the top secure enough so brushed it off. However we hada storm the other day that I drove through and had leakage on both passenger and driver side. Took it to the dealer as I noticed the rear windows when they were down while the top was up did NOT look like they did in my 2001 Sebring ocnvertible. The rear windows in the 2001 were flush with the front windows. In the 2004 they are bending inward. Apparently, this was an intentional design change as we looked at one on the lot and I was quite disappointed as I could not see the benefit in that.   I have not had the other problems but would be interested in any answers you receive on the leaking.
#25 of 101 Speakers apparently shorted out by water by mar4 Jul 14, 2005 (6:04 am)
The water on the floorboards and in the body of my car apparently shorted out my speakers for good. Under the passenger seat is a black rectangular box of wires that apparently controls the speakers (Infiniti brand; I'm not sure if they were installed by the manufacturer or by a previous owner). Does anyone know how to fix the speakers, maybe by replacing a fuse? By the way, I figured out how to unclog the small drain holes under the car; thanks for the advice. So hopefully the waterlogging won't continue.

Replying to: mar4 (Jul 14, 2005 6:04 am) I own a 1998 sebring conv. I have little problems with the roof leaking, but we just had a heavy rain and the drivers side front and back floors are both soaked. The seats were not wet at all. I just purchased this car about a week ago. Any suggestions?? Replies to this message: rlgore (Oct 05, 2005 9:56 pm) kmartin3 (Oct 20, 2005 12:28 pm) dannyrayscott (Nov 22, 2005 12:06 pm)
