2008 Touring - Noticed a few times over the past week when putting the rear hatch up after a rainstorm that water would come leaking into the interior around the panel seams where you can access the third brakelight. I am hoping it's just a clogged drainhole somewhere. Anyone have this happen and know of a fix? Thanks for the help.
 
Pull the access panel off and hand tighten the two nuts with socket, I think its a 10mm. If that fails run a small bead of silicon seal around the edge of third light and reinstal. The foam gasket gets tired.

Good Luck.
