LEAKING TRUNK

Post by shell22wb »

I have a 2003 SSEi. When I go through an automatic car wash the trunk gets wet. I havent figured out where it's coming in yet. Does anyone else have this problem?

Lots of people have had this issue. The best way to do it is to crawl in the trunk w/ a flashlight and have someone else run water over it w/ a hose and look to see where it's leaking in. Could be the trunk seal, the spoiler, the taillight reflector, the 3rd brake light, the rear window, etc. Lots of places it could be.
