There was a recall on the rubber stripping for the car, call MB, give the VIN to see you qualify.

Check the door drains on the bottom

of the door.And also check under your seats in case the dreaded battery box water intrusion has occurred.

Where exactly are the drains located? I may have the same problem. I noticed a bit of rain each time it's rains. How do you clean them if they are clogged? Thanks

rain gets inside car

Thanks for responses....
This happen even car is parked...
Whenever it rains, I think it drips down the rubber strip..its seems like water drips by the lower part sit door and wet water on the bar frame directly under the door when door is closed.

I will call benz and give a feedback....

Sunroof drains have been known to become clogged. Open the sunroof and check to see if there is organic debris near the drain holes. If not run a flexible something down the drain holes to see if that helps.
