My daughter's 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora has a problem with rain water leaking in. The water makes the driver side front and rear floor damp. I was told the drainage tubes could be blocked, is this true and if so what is the best way to correct the problem.

if you are talking about the sunroof drains, they need to be blown out with shop air to clear them.

there are drains under the hood by the windshield that clog with leaves and need to be cleaned of all debris and the drains flushed with a high pressure hose.
