Mitsubishi Shogun water leak

I own a Mitsubishi Shogun. It has two occasional seats that fold into the boot floor. However, the recess into which they fold down fills with water after driving in heavy rain. Mitsubishi can't help. Any ideas?

Probably coming in through the one-way cabin vents situated between the carpeted sides of the load well and the rear bumper extensions. They are only one-way until they break.

Excellent tow car and rugged off-roader. Better ride quality than the previous Shogun.
