Ford Fiesta 2007 1.25 - Water getting into my spare tyre well - richiek67

Hi There,

I have noticed that i have water getting down into my tyre well under my boot. I have an idea that it could be going down the edge of the hatchback door but not sure. Anyone else have this problem or any details on this sort of thing.

Many thanks

Rich

Water can get in through the tiniest split in windscreen seals or door seals, or a grommet could have come out in the boot area. I once had to take a car back to the main dealer 14 times until they found where rain was getting in that soaked my footwell.
