What Causes Water Dripping Behind the Car Trunk?
1 Answers
Water dripping behind the car trunk is caused by: 1. Wear and aging of the trunk seal or trunk deformation; 2. Drain pipe blockage leading to water leakage. Since the trunk is not completely sealed, some sand and mud may enter the drain pipe during rain or car washing. The drain holes are designed to be very small and can easily be clogged by dust or mud. Solutions for water dripping behind the car trunk: 1. Remove the rubber plug at the bottom of the spare tire compartment in the trunk to allow drainage; 2. Locate the leak by checking if the trunk lid is deformed or if the surrounding seals are aged. Use a hose to spray water and observe where water enters, or close the trunk lid after water enters and mark any spots where light shines through.
