Yes! It does have a sunroof! A lot of water comes in and there will be a huge puddle from the front to the back but just on the passenger side.

Here's a couple pictures that might help. Its easier to get at the bottom of the hoses, so don't follow the instructions to pull the hose down & actually remove it (or else you'll be removing the headliner to hook it back up). Those fittings down there are meant to drain into the space behind the plastic inner fender liner.





I think if the hose were disconnected at the top, you'd see water up higher somewhere as it runs down.

Thank you so much I appreciate you taking the time to send me all that! Will definitely have to have that looked at! Maybe I’ll even look it up on YouTube so I know more of what you are saying.

The kick-panel is a plastic panel just above the floor & just forwards of the door-opening. It has a couple snap things that hold it in place. Work your fingers under the edge & it should snap off when you carefully pull it away.

I never had to fix the sunroof drains but when you snap off the kick panel you should be able to see the bottom of that hose where it's attached into that plastic fitting "A". Hopefully that's where the problem is and you can just put the hose back where it belongs.

Default 2013 Honda Accord water leaking in front passenger site floor

Greetings everyone! I'm a brandnew member here. I have came across over this forum while browsing for my 2013 Honda Accord front passenger site floor water leaking while take the car inside the car wash. Water start gushing in only when i take it to the car wash only not when it rains or snows. I took it to my nearest HONDA service center here in Bronx , NY area and they told me that I have a sunroof which is not factory installed and they can't fix this issue and I have to take this to an after marketplace or something. I just didn't get it if the saying that sunroof is causing the issue. I also wasn't aware of this sunroof installation as i bought it from a Massachusetts Audi dealer as used car with 10K mileage back in 2015. There's never no water leak or drip from the sunroof at all ever. I don't know why Honda service center can't fix this issue even if the sunroof is original or not and they charged me $150 as diagnostic fees. I'd much appreciate if someone with some knowledge /experience advise me here. My car has only 63K MIleage currently and I need to drive this for another few more years without spending a very hefty amount just to fix this issue or selling this car out.
