Question sunroof leaking

Has anyone had problems with their sunroof leaking? The dealorship has replaced the roof and serviced it 3 times. Its still leaking, when I go through a car wash, when it rains, ect. I don't know what to do. I only have 44k on this car. Any ideas to what may be wrong.

Easy!
The roof drains are clogged. They exit the drivers side window frame.
Had the same problem on my older Elantra.

I have a 2013 Elantra, my rear driver side floor is wet, 2nd year in a row now. The moisture causes the inside windows to be soaked and today, frozen when the frost hit. Where is the drainage for the rear part? I have the panorama roof which is pretty much the entire roof of glass. Its dangerous to have a wet windshield inside and I cant afford a dozen paper towels a day to wipe the windows dry... LOL

The drains go down the rear of the roof to over the rear wheel area. After it thaws out try blowing some air into the drain at the top of the roof to dislodge the debris.
