Correct Resolution of Water Leak Problems

When correcting a water leak problem, it is important to remember that customer satisfaction Is directly linked to the quality of repairs made to the vehicle.

Repair "shortcuts," such as drilling drain holes in floor panels to prevent water accumulation, or simply blocking off an area with sealer to prevent water entering the passenger compartment, are hardly long term quality repair methods. This type of repair is ineffective and must not be used.
Even more important; because customer satisfaction is directly linked to repair quality, the only way to deal with a water leak is to locate and seal the actual source of the leak. Correct resolution of water leaks is therefore dependent on:

- Accurate diagnosis based on careful visual inspection and water testing

- Correct sealing methods and equipment

- Use of the correct sealing product.
