My 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix 3.8 has a water leak I re placed water pump plastic hoses and seals and it still leaks why

I assume the leak is where you replaced the seals, so I would assume there was enough ware that even with new seals, they aren't sealing completely. You can drive around and see if the seals finally seal, but if the leak is at the water pump, I would consider just getting a new water pump and installing it.

Could the rubber seal softner sweller in stop leaks for power steering or tranny work at stopping old high mileage leaky water pump shaft seal leak ?

Stop leaks as you describe are oil based and it wouldn't be a good idea to add it to a water-based cooling system. Because water is present there is no guarantee the substance would have the intimate contact with the rubber seal it would need to work - if indeed the water pump has a rubber seal.
Older water pumps could have a carbon seal or a gland seal.

Reconditioning the water pump or replacing it seems the best solution.

There is water leaking inside above my passenger side door when it rains pretty hard?

is the water leak allowing the water to wick up into the headliner or is the headliner getting wet without water coming past the weather stripping around the door?

If it is wicking then fix the weather stripping.
If the water is getting headliner wet with out passing the weather stripping then you have a leaking sun roof.

You can the door seal by sitting in the car while you have some spray water (garden hose) gentle at the frontal and upper door seal.
If not leak there inspect seal of sun roof and real seal with correct type of sealant.

2003 oldsmobile sillouette leaks in wheel wells after it rains both sides

These water leaks can be really tough to find. In some cases the windshield seal can be leaking and the water runs down the firewall into the interior.
I have a similar issue on my Aurora from time to time. I believe the issue is the weather strip around the door seals. It looks to me like the water follows the weather seal and then is wicked into the car where the carpeting contacts the weather seal. I have thought about putting small holes in the weather seal on the bottom edge (facing the exterior of the vehicle) so that the water has a path to follow out of the car. Not sure if this will work.

Water pump seal leaking - engine temp normal

HI. you will need to replace the water pump asap. once the seal is breached its a done deal. Its only a matter of time when the seal completely fails, causing a very serious over heating situation that will damage this fragile engine.

Water standing floor of 1991 corsica

That can be caused by the door or window seals. Around all your doors there is a rubber seal, this seal can degrade and allow water into the interior. There are also seals around the windows and front and rear windshields. If I were you I would visually inspect all the rubber seals on all your doors and windows, if any part of the seals is worn it should be replaced. You can buy universal weatherstripping kits off the shelf at any auto parts store to replace any of yours that are bad and it's pretty easy to install. You can also pick up a tube of silicone sealent to seal any small gaps or cracks in the existing seals.

Hope this helps
