Tailgate water leak

[Jswagler]

Anyone having water leak into the interior of the your tailgate weather strip?
This was an issue for me all winter. Service didn’t find anything when they had it...

Then today, I finally saw what was happening. When I close the gate the water build up starts streaming out the rubber bumper next to the button (last picture) causing that weather strip to retain the water. Hopefully this will good enough intel for service to fix this next time.

I've noticed this too. Thanks for the info and let us know if Service has a fix.

Service fixed mine, just schedule it. The taillight gasket was cracking, they fixed it quickly.

I had this issue. They found a hole in the tailgate somewhere. Its Fixed now. I assume they patched it with some adhesive.

Water pooled in the exact same spot. They originally diagnosed it as a seal, but after replacement, the issue came back. I had to point this out to the advisor this since neither him or the tech cared to look.

I have the same.
Scheduled appointment, and the car is now there for 8 days, and they also somehow broke my screen, so now also waiting for replacement.
