0003245 Dealer Repair Information
Customer complains of water in trunk. Water is noticed in spair tire and
side quarter panel wells, and in extreme cases overflows into passenger
compartment.
Inspect body seams under rear tail light for being opened. This
condition can be caused by vehicle being moderately rear ended. It is
very important
that the vehicle is closely inspected for accident damage. It has been
reported in some cases that bumper cover showed no to only slight damage
but once removed more damage was evident on the bumper reinforcement.
