Water in trunk on Chry TC


After heavy rain water has entered the trunk. Rubber is in good shape - trunk lid closes tight. Anyone have an idea how it is getting in there?

Re: Water in trunk on Chry TC

Hi, Burndog, not an unusual problem.
Check the following:
1-drains fron top storage- The lines can come off or crack and leak into the trunk.
2-The lock itself can be a source of the leak. Try hosing the lock gently and see if any water enters the trunk.
3- Make certain thet the trunk weatherstripping is tight on the metal flange it is attached to- this can cause a leak by capilliary action
If these tips don't work try to identify the location of the wet spot on the carpet, the leak is probably next to or above it.
Good luck.
