HELP! my car is taking on water!!!

ok here's the deal. where the Pillar meets the headliner on the driverside of my max, water is leaking in. i've determined that the drain for my sunroof much have some leak in it and the water has no where to go but there. i've already tried using my air compressor to try and knock anything out that might be blocking it but that must not be the problem.
does anyone have similar experiances with this? can anyone tell me what has to be done?
the only thing i can think of that can be done now is to pull back the headliner and the pillar and to try patching up the problem? does anyone know how to do that and can leave any instructions?

any help is greating appreciated.

Take the weather strip around the upper part of your door down, remove the screws and take off the sun visor, then pry gently downward on the headliner in the corner by the piller. A cliip will let go and you can pull down the headliner enough to inspect the drain tube. Most likely it just fell off the nipple on the sunroof. Thats an easy fix, should take you no more then 30 minutes.
