Consumer Description

OPENED TRUNK TODAY AFTER CAR WAS PARKED IN A PARKING UNCOVERED IN A NORMAL RAIN (NOT HEAVY OR SEVERE WEATHER) AND WATER WAS IN TRUNK AROUND THE BOTTOM GASKET SEAL AND DIP WHERE THE TRUNK LATCH IS. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION THE WATER HAS LEAKED INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUNK WHERE THE SPARE TIRE AND BATTERY IS AND THE TRUNK LINER IS SOAKED AT THE BOTTOM WHERE IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE SEAL WHEN CLOSED. UNSURE AS TO WHERE THE LEAK IS HAPPENING AS NOTHING ELSE FEELS WET AROUND THE SEALS.
