ROOF AROUND THE ROOF-MOUNTED AIR CONDITIONER LEAKS WATER AFTER A SUSTAINED STORM. HAS BEEN IN DEALER SERVICE THREE TIMES, AND THE LEAK PERSISTS. OTHERS WITH THIS VEHICLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. HTTP://SPRINTER-SOURCE.COM/FORUM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=10336&PAGE=1 WE THINK THESE ARE FIXED, BECAUSE FOR A SHORT TIME AFTER BEING IN THE SHOP, IT STOPS, BUT IT ALWAYS COMES BACK. *TR
ROOF OF THE SPRINTER VAN IS LEAKING WATER INTO THE INTERIOR. LARGE SECTIONS OF THE SEALING MATERIAL BETWEEN PANELS ON THE EXTERIOR ROOF HAS BECOME CRACKED AND IS PEALING UP NEAR THE REAR OF THE ROOF. THIS ALLOWS WATER TO LEAK INTO THE VEHICLE CAUSING RUST AT THE SEAMS, AND ELSEWHERE? *TR
