Every time it rains it looks like I’m getting water entering that is leaking on the passenger a pillar. Anyone know where this could be entering from and how to resolve? Moonroof?

Plugged sunroof drain hoses. Or from leaky windshield seal. I have had both. The windshield leak was caused by some rust at top of windshield right next to and under the seal.

If the windshield is not OEM and has been replaced at some point it can also leak if installed improperly, there have been some member experience this after getting their windshield replaced, I believe it because there are some drain holes on the windshield flange and when some installers install the new windshield they not knowingly plug those drain holes with sealant when installing the glass and water builds up inside the A pillar until it leaks to the interior.

If this leak is something new that has just recently started I would guess either the sunroof drains are clogged or as mentioned maybe a rust hole somewhere around the glass.
 
The windshield was replaced. But a couple years ago. But perhaps it built over the years. I’ll try the sunroof drains. Ty all.

My memory isn't the best, I do know that if the windshield isn't installed correctly it would cause a leak to the interior because if the drains being sealed, but I don't recall if it was immediately or over time, you can find some of the reports of members who had this issue by searching the forums.
