Just throwing this out there. Neighbor has a G6 GT with sunroof. It leaked, found out the drain hose was clogged.

they have an issue with the heater box getting clogged with leaves because there is no screen above the heater box. that then in turn clogs the drain which is located under the center of the vehicle right at the firewall. there is a TSB out there to un clog it and install a plastic screen.

i hope that helps

I am having the exact same problem!!! Unfortunately though, we have below freezing weather so my entire passenger side floorboard (front and rear) has been a complete block of ice for the past month. the dealership has had my vehicle now for 2 weeks and has even taken the chairs out and the dash out in order to find the leak. The dealership claimed at first it was a leak in the windshield seal and then a leaky seal under the car.Obviouslyneither were the case.Besides the clogged drain, are there any other suggestions?

I am a member of several Caliber forums and several of them have
extensive info re water leaks by members who have gone thru the
problems.
I would suggest you try CALIBERFORUMSdotCOM and CALIBERFORUMZdotCOM.
Water penatration has been reported mainly re sunroof drainage and at points
where the front fender assys join to the passenger cabin where poor sealant/
water sealers application has proved to be the culprit.
One of members even posted pics of where the problem areas were located.
