Dodge: Water Leak

    Water Leak

    I just purchased a 96 Dodge Neon Expresso for a winter beater car and I
    noticed that there is water in the trunk where the spare tire is and the
    rear driver side carpet is wet. I haven't had it long enough, (2 days) to
    really take a good look at it. Does anyone know if this is a normal leak in
    neons or is this something totally random that I will have to investigate?

    Thanks
    Ryan

    Neons are known for the trunk leaks. It is from the sealing around the
    taillights. Dry out the trunk and silicone around the entire rear taillights
    and that should fix the problem. There was a TSB about it in Canada.

    A "normal leak"? WTF is that?

    You didn't think to check that stuff before you purchased the vehicle?

    The water leaks in normally thru the rear tailites- take them out and using
    some RTV run a bead around the foam and reassemble,

    I'd say the loser is the one who is stupid enough to buy a vehicle without
    noticing it's got a trunk full of water! LOL!

    OK, so I might or might not buy this car from you. Before I make my
    decision I will need to hose it down for about an hour to check for leaks.
    You don't mind, do you?

    The original post gave the impression that the water was in there already,
    as he stated he'd only had it 2 days and didn't mention rain.

    I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WATER LEAKING INTO MY TRUNK WHICH REACHES THE FLOOR
    OF MY BACK SEAT.I HAD IT TAKEN CARE OF A WHILE BACK AND NOW STILL THE SAME
    PROBLEM. I DON'T GO IN THE TRUNK OFTEN , NOR DO I SIT IN THE BACK SEAT SO I
    WASN'T AWARE OF IT AGAIN UNTIL I NEEDED THE SPARE TIRE THE OTHER DAY. THIS
    SUCKS!!
