Leaking rear window

[BUmmedic]

Every now and then in the rain, I noticed a single water trail on the inside of the rear liftgate gate window on my 2003 LTD Centennial. Is this a common explorer problem (I seem to remember hearing that it is), and is there a quick fix for it? I can always tell the dealer (covered under BaseCARE extended warranty), but wanted to know other peoples' experiences first. Thanks.

My 92 is doing the same thing. I can't figure our a way to fix it without replacing the seal around the window. Anybody else have ideas?

My '03 EB has leaked for a long time now and it's at the hinge mount. I had them replaced a few years back under a recall. I've tightened the screw on the hinge a few times and it seems to help.

Mine was leaking at the Middle Brake Light. Put some Silicone around the seal and fixed the problem.
