Asked by GuruD456YD Jul 04, 2023 at 11:59 AM about the 2016 Nissan Versa Note SV

Question type: General

Have a Nissan Versa Note.
Water on passenger side floor.
Heard I could cover this temporarily (
windshield ) till I do a permanent fix.
Do they mean cover entire care?
Maybe just cover little plastic black
grill on cowl?  Or maybe cover entire
windshield glass with one of those
sun shields?

First and only time it has happened.
Thank you.  It is very involved to clear
the plugged holes& I would have to go
to a pro. Thanks again

Water appearing only on the passenger side floor is most often a clogged AC condenser drain, not a window or door seal. Get under the car, find the drain outlet, and put a long screwdriver in it to unclog. This is just usual maintenance of a car.

Thank you most cordially Ed. (just inquired about temporary remedy) This is a note hatchback . Sort of European type plastic car. Never use A/C. Cannot get under car, as I have arthritis, and my vision is very poor to find drain outlet.So

Do they mean cover entire car while it sits in rain storm? Strong vac did wonders on water. No new water past few days

Take it to a shop and they can put it on a lift then clean out the drain for you with compressed air. Hope that helps! Jim

You're welcome. Glad to help. A friend of mine has the same car and that's what she had to do, literally about a month ago. Jim
