STRUCTURE
REAR CARGO WINDOW ON PASSENGER SIDE (NOT BACK DOOR GLASS) LEAKS WATER INTO THE "BULKHEAD" AREA. AS WATER BUILDS UP IT EVENTUALLY SPLASES OVER INTO THE CARGO AREA INSIDE THE VEHICLE THEREBY FLOODING THE CARPET, ETC. THIS OCCURS WHENEVER THERE IS RAIN OF ANY SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT AND IS ONGOING CONTIUOUSLY. SEVERAL AREA SUBURBAN OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM ANDS NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE A SOLUTION.*JB
