I noticed a smell the other day in my wife’s 100. Searched around and discovered wet carpet under the storage deck I built in the back. It was wet all along the tailgate and damp out maybe a foot into the carpet.
I found a decent amount of leaves around the weatherstripping at the top near the hinges. Thoroughly cleaned it all. Cleaned and vacuumed the carpet and ran a fan to dry it.
Tonight we had a big rain storm blow through. I went and climbed inside the back during the rain and noticed a tiny amount of water showing up in the area shown in the picture. (Bottom of hatch, where it meets tailgate) I could imagine after lots of rain, like we’ve had over the last few weeks, it could eventually get to the carpet.
Anyone else had the same issue? Weatherstripping all looks intact. Could it be the window seal? How do I diagnose?
