Honestly, I'm not sure. My 3 year bumper to bumper ended in May. Even still, the repair could be more detrimental than the current situation. I don't even know that's specifically the cause.
The car doesn't see much rain, and I doubt all cars are 100% sealed. I've taken appart our older grand cherokee and found evidence of water getting in that too...

right. I thought the same thing invasive repair for a couple inches of splitting practically hidden.

I did some more research today too. There's lots of leak paths that lead to that spot. I found a bunch of threads on water in that spot.

What happens when you put the rear seat backs down, use a bright LED, lay down in there through the trunk and have someone run water over the seams?

Does water come through there, or elsewhere?

Not absolute positive but I think they are the issue in addition to window channels peeling and cracking. I KNOW ITS LEAKING EVERY TIME WE GET RAIN ATM. Ford dealer submitting a claim for me now that The Ford rep over the phone gave me a claim number...Wish me "LUCK"
