Take it to the dealer I had the same issue and they fix it. They might need to replace the headliner hopefully they have it in stock

I can't understand why there is a big a%$ hole behind the third brake light anyway. Why is it just not closed off with the wiring entering through a grommet. How the engineers could look at that hole and say "no problem" is beyond me.

I had the same issue. There is a TSB on it and the dealer replaced it about a month ago and it hasn't leaked since.

I went to the dealer and they said that they fixed it and then come yesterday I noticed it was leaking cause it was raining down here.

I took it in yesterday and lost about 4 hours of work time, but oh well! They took the light off and whoever put the new one on messed up the gasket that goes around the light cause it was all bunched up at one spot and that caused it to leak again.

I actually put the new one on myself cause I told them that I would rather do it and if it leaked, then it's my fault. So far, so good... it rained a couple inches down here and no leaks.

So I think it's safe to say the problem has been fixed.
