Leaking roof

Has anybody else experianced leaking in the corners? Is Toyotas shitty roof trim to blame? Is it the back glass? What are people doing to combat this? I have a prinsu rack but was leaking before. Anybody... Help!

 

3rd brake light? Take it to the dealer. There's a tsb I believe. Idk the details tho

 

Look up the threads on 3rd brake light leak

 

Is the roof rail trim still in place? Do you have a roof rack?

 

He does but it was leaking before the install

 

Completely normal. You got the shower option

 

Funny... I dont remember that being an option.Did a test it is my 3rd break light. Its just diverting the water to the corners. Thanks all. Now to deal with the stealership.

 

Wait! You (not you) have a roof leak and then you proceeded to install a roof rack?

Not sure that was the best course of action.

 

Pull down the headliner run garden hose over the 3rd brake light. look for leak.

or see if it covered by tsb.

 

Thanks for your opinion. I mean you had a stupid useless comment and still decided to post. Not the best course of action...

 

Can't help the helpless.

Here's the real advice. Either investigate the problem yourself... there's only 3 potential points of intrusion (3rd brake light, door seal, or roof seals)...

Short of you doing that, take it to a shop.

Problem solved!

 

How long have you had this leak?

 

It’s the 3 rd brake light
Almost positive

 

You had a baseline of something obviously failed, which you could have pointed back to Toyota, but then went and installed an aftermarket piece, which now may/not have added to this leak.

was that the best course of action on your part? Or are you here to call people out?

 

Just had my high-mount brake light and gasket replaced.

 

Everyone from 2019 to 2016 will need to get it done
The gasket is redesigned

 

Yep my dealer just reached out saying it was a recall. Scheduled for replacement in a couple weeks.

 

Had mine done. Remember not to take it to a car wash for 24 hours after the work is done! Some people didn't receive that advice.

 

Just pointing out that the comment wasnt helpful. But thanks for yours too.

 

maybe not to you (now), but for any other members who decides to add another dynamic into an existing issue, it will hopefully be helpful.
