Hi Everyone - I've been readying this thread for a little while, I found it shortly after we found our first leak in our new to us used '11. That was a year and a half ago probably. That leak was the rear hinge bracket, I believe passenger side. We managed to fix that one ourselves. Since then we have had two more leaks, each more serious than the one before it. Our explorer has been in the shop this visit for just over a week, and the final result is that we are in $500 for diagnostics, and they have determined it is on the rear drivers side corner under the hatch, and the body shop has to go in to fix it. The words "corrosion" and "holes" were bandied about. The quote for this one, $2k.
I am going to get some quotes from 3rd party body shops, any thoughts?
I am so completely frustrated right now.
