Description of the problem | The rear hatch has a significant leak when it rains or i go through a car wash. I have reported this many times and the resolve was for me to pay an extreme amount to have the rubber replaced. Several of my friends that have the same car have the same problem. This was noticed shortly after i bought the car. I believe it is a manufacturer problem and should be recalled and corrected. It is leaking right at the wiring on the passenger side and could cause more serious issues down the road. I have a temporary fix at this time but it is not permanent by any means. |
