A bottle brush is perfect for cleaning sunroof drain holes on the Ford Escape. The smaller tip on a two-tip bottle brush can be inserted and then pulled out to clean sunroof drain holes.
where are the drain holes on the rear part of the sunroof and how do i clear them
does the rear sunroof glass have drain holes
Open the sunroof and find the four drain holes. Clear any debris. Blow air inside the drain tubes to find out if there is any blockage. Slide the replacement tubing inside the drain hose.
Make sure drain tubes are clear so water can run out
stick some thin wire down the holes
Our sunroof leaks after any heavy rain or carwash due to plugging in the sunroof drain holes. From what our service dept. claims, the sunroof does not form a perfectly water tight seal with the roof by design. There are actually tiny drain holes around the perimeter that allow any seepage to drain down through the windshield columns and out near the front tires. It should work unless debris is now plugging those drains.
Door Panels Removal & Installation 1. Remove the sail panel (Front Doors Only). 2. Remove the door panel by carefully lifting the panel upward to release the retaining clips. 3. Remove the electrical plugs that control the windows, exc. Clean out the debris.The installation is the reverse of the removal.Same goes for the sunroof open and clean out the debris.

In your sunroof there should be 1 hole in each corner. These holes act as drains for the sunroof. Every sunroof leaks, the drains let the water drop out of the vehicle at the bottom on the underside. Your drain holes are probably just plug up, maybe with leaves or something. Grab an air compressor and a hose and just blow the blockage out.
The Drains are the 2 little holes located in the front corners of the Sunroof. Was advised after paying for 3 drain cleanings by a Service Desk employee to blast them out with a can of Computer Air Spray using the little straw attached. Said that was all they did at the Dealership.
There are four drains on the factory sunroof. Two in the front corner and two in the rear corners. The front two are the easiest to get to. If you have access to compressed air take a blower with and extended tip and blow air in the front drain holes. Make sure you clear any debris that may have fallen inside your drain channel. The rear two will be able to be cleared if you have access to a piece of 3\8 clear tubbing you can attach to your air blower and repeat the same process as you did for the front. If all fails take it to an aftermarket sunroof company in your area.
Clogged drain or toilet. Also check the vent holes under the rim and clean the out.
