Trunk became flooded when washing the car...!

Has anyone noticed any water gettin INSIDE the trunk on rainy days, going through car washes, or hand washes?

Everything in side my trunk, specifically where the latch (near the license plate) meets the upper part of the bumper.

When I touch the floor area towards the front center of the trunk, it is completely soaked!!

This is new to me. Mine is dry as a bone.

Did you inspect the rubber seals for any damage?

Your car is going to smell bad. Well, the trunk area and the back seats.

leave it stock

well.. the best thing to do is to leave the car alone. they designed the best they can to make it a perfect fit. it is always not a good idea to take things apart and put it back, the finishing wont be the same, so if you can stay away from taking stuff apart! my trunk is fine. i leave everything stock, radio, navi, tires, springs.. "no touch"
