December might not be the best time of the year to discover that there is water inside your car, especially when you live upstate New York... and your car is staying on an open air parking lot! I waited for a snowless day, with temperature above freezing to venture taking a look at the problem. Water was accumulating under the front passenger seat, under the rug, threatening to turn the car into a mobile swamp. To find a leak, your only option is to spray every corner of the car with water and patiently observe and listen where the dripping comes from. It turned out that the water was coming from the trunk. Under the rug in the trunk, both the spare wheel and the jack compartments were completely underwater. Driving the car was enough to jiggle the water under the back seat. Water would accumulate under the passerger front seat, due to gravity.
