We've noticed condensation on the interior windows for some months now but finally found out what was happening after a rain storm the other night. Opened the rear hatch and found the carpet and left side wall of the cargo area had water drops on it...looked like it had rained inside the vehicle! Popped out the plastic storage pump where you access the taillight on the left side and it had water standing in there and the sound proofing was wet all the way up the side. Used a wet dry vacuum and cleaned it out and checked to make sure every window and door was properly closed. It started raining shortly after and the next day the water was back. Took it to the dealer who said my warranty just expired 30 days ago. He said they had not seen this and would have to call someone to pinpoint the leak. The diagnosis alone is $250 and I don't know how much the repair will be. This is ridiculous as the vehicle is barely 3 years old with 11500 miles.
