Leak in the rear subwoofer area.

I noticed there's water cumulating around the subwoofer area after rain. Anyone have idea where could the water coming from? Is it a expensive/difficult fix??

Thanks

Check all rubber gaskets and trunk lining are in place, especially the ones around upper conners.
you most likely need new gaskets.

I was told it was because of the dirt in the gasket and it made the water overflow into the back. I had my rear left and right dripping with water and a big az puddle in the rear left stow area.

I clean the big gasket on the hatch. Peel it back a little and clean out all the dirt stuck in between the gasket and frame. I haven't seen any water since. Maybe I lucked out.

Neverminded I jinxed it, there's leak in the car again. What did they do the fix your leak for $650? Just cleaning your gasket for $650? The sunroof or the hatch gasket?
