Unsuccessful warranty repair

If it's a sunroof issue, it could be a shrunken or degraded seal, again, something that you would normally expect to last more than 3 years.
One possibility if it does have a sunroof.
Some cars with sunroofs have drains that run from them down a door or window pillar and one of these could be blocked or detached.
I used to have Volvo that had such a setup and the drain ran down the right hand windscreen pillar. Near the bottom, there was a spring loaded valve and the pipe became detached from this which caused the footwell to flood in heavy rain.
The drain pipes came down the back and you had to remove the rear lights and then find the pipe which was not visible
