2011-2015 Jetta Sedan- Water Leak into Front Passenger
Compartment
February 6, 2015: Update to model year.
A concern of water leak into the front passenger compartment may be caused by a seam sealer skip or
hole in the area around hood hinge or behind front fender.
Isolate leak location by switching HVAC blower on high, with all doors and windows closed, and then
spraying soapy water, or a foaming cleaner, over seam sealer. If bubbles are observed at any point during
this test, repair leak at location of bubbles using an appropriate seam sealer.
