I have the oddest thing...

Water is collecting in the well area below fuel filler tube on the inside of my trunk. I noticed it today when I pulled groceries out, wondered how the bag got damp. I pulled the plastic trim panel off, then the carpet liner on the rear drivers side. Low and behold there was a dark brown lake behind it. It's also the same place where the rear marker lamp comes thru the body panel, I put some Seal All around the lamp housing, hopefully this does the trick and fixes it. If not looks like I will have to troubleshoot the whole panel.

Now let's all go look...

Possible TSB

oops should be in Issues section, Mods move please.

I noticed that on mine last november when i got the car. I took it to the dealer and they resealed the trunk compartment with alot of caulk. I don't have anymore leaks. It was funny the first time i found it. I had an ice rink around my spare tire...lol

I checked mine thoroughly, didn't see any evidence of leakage... at least not yet.
