Rear Window Leaks

[sakirfp]

I have a 98 Explorer and the rear window on the back hatch leaks from the top. I replaced the weather strip but that did not work. It still leaks...It seems like the window is bowed. Does this happen and how can I fix it..

It is unlikely the window is bowed.
You might have to move the seal around to seat tighter around the glass or adjust the glass tighter.
Be careful on that though, too tight is will be tough to close.

Try some silicone on the weatherstripping. My sunroof leaked during heavy rains & that seemed to help. Seems the rubber dries out & does not seal all the way
