Water Entry into Trunk Area





If you receive customer reports in the above model vehicles of a water drip into the trunk from the area of the trunk paneling, the seal plugs (Figure 1) in the drain holes on the trunk lid may be leaky.

2. Remove both seal plugs using a plastic wedge (W900 58901 6700).
