Water leaking into the trunk area and the floor boards of the rear passenger compartment causing mildew, rust and damage to stored property inside the vehicle.
As many others have reported, whenever there is a heavy rainfall the floors in the rear of the car fill with water. It is so bad that now it filters over into the front seats. I have been haivng this problems for a few years but was unaware that there were others with the same issue. Dealers and auto mechanics have not been successful in finding the source of the leak.
Whenever it rains, I have a lot of water on the back floorboards and trunk. Sometimes it's about an inch or two high. We've tried numerous ways to control it or even to get it dry so that it would not mildew. It does not work and it smells really bad now. It seems to be a factory problem and will try to get dealer to fix. Seems like many people have not been successful doing that but more complains from people someday may help.
