I have an ‘07 model and the last time it rained I had water coming out at the A pillar grab handles. I have once before cut a little bit of the rubber piece by the hinge. I even squeezed them some this time and got some water out. My question is what do you use to keep these lines cleaned out and where is the upper end of these drain tubes located?

LP air tuned waayyyyy down so you don't blow the tubes off. The trick is getting to the drains, they should be a ways back.

Had the same issue in my 2500. Took it to a dealer, they said it was the drain tubes clogged from production. They cleared it out, but happened again months later.

So you are saying these tubes are on the sides? I assumed they were somewhere near the front.

The drain tubes will drain out in the fender wells. Look for some tubes in there. Use a can of compressed air and find the drain tubes located in each corner of your sunroof. Make this a quarterly event.
