Status Update

Hello,
Here's an update on the issue that's been haunting me for a while now. After writing a letter to Honda corporate on July 26 the weather stripping and my carpet was replaced just a couple of weeks ago. Fast forward to yesterday, August 15 and the water is back after a long hard rainy day. I have had the issue looked at and 3 repair attempts have been made without any resolution.
Brand new replaced carpet has gotten water accumulation and pretty sure mold will follow like last time.

In my communications with Honda corporate, it still seems like this issue is only happening to my specific car and no other Honda Fits. I'm posting the following photos for anyone to know what to look for if this might be happening to you. I will start the lemon law process within the next week and will update on that.
