There are drain plugs near the roof and one plugged with debris and in the winter it froze solid and then when the temp was not freezing and raining, it would not drain and the water flooded the inside of the car. Thought it was a cracked heater core because of the condensation in the car at first but it wasn't. Took a couple days to get dried out. Blew out the tube with compressed air.
