After a heavy rain, my rear carpet is wet in both corners
of the cargo area. Any thoughts, tips? Thanks.

mine is the same way. I believe it is just from the weather stripping on the hatch leaking. either that, or it is coming in from under the tailgate while I drive.

Sounds like you need to replace weather stripping...

Upper liftgate glass weatherstrip. Dealer p/n is 15983928. Retail is around $100.

I agree with the bed lining of it since it's being used in the fashion. Good to hear that you'll fix the leak issue as well. I got the impression you were just ignoring that aspect :)

Thank for the replies, I'm going to look into the weatherstrip. Spray-in in the back is a great idea.
