2 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 11/17/2010

The Chrysler Crossfire convertible back windows on some cars lose their adhesive bond and the windows come fall partly apart. This allow rain water to enter under the window, where the roof latch is. There is a way for water to enter the trunk there. This water finds its way to two trunk cavities on the bottom, and the water has no place to exit. On the right side is the security module that can be saturated that the foam insulation, actually can store this water as a sponge. And the water can then cause a problem in the security area. Module. Lights coming on flashing and sirens blaring ay all kind of times. . That the battery can actually be discharged leaving one stranded. Had the problem happen, had to take the truck apart to bail out water, quite a lot, there is no exit hole for the water to leave that it builds up around the security module and the foam around it, soaks up water. That while the module looks good, I seen a burned area and smelled a electrical problem. There was so much water in the foam that it weight was real heavy. Solution have a drain hole in the bottom of both trunk pits, below the jack. That a material that does not absorb water be used. Place a cover over the module to weatherize it. . What should have been done that a soft rubber seal should have sealed around the roof latch hole inside that the outside is okay until the window seal lets water in.
