So yesterday i found a little bit of mold behind my back seat. And after doing a bit of looking i found a good sized puddle of water under my subwoofer box in the storage compartment under the seat. Has anyone ever had this happen?30abf2a501a9dc5b85a6462757ca5ece.jpg

Yep, and also on my 2011 I needed to put a dab of sealant where the roof seams/runners meet the back window.

For OP, there are a lot of discussions on here about this...it's a somewhat common issue on these trucks, and many others.

I thought that too but there's no moisture anywhere except in there?

That's where it all ends up at...the other areas have had time to dry out.

Depending on the color of your headliner, you may see some water stains in the back corners or in the middle.

If it does turn out to be the 3rd brake light (which is VERY likely) my dealer was useless in fixing it. I did it myself in the Home Depot parking lot literally in less than 5 minutes with a roll of rubber weather-stripping across the top and part way around the sides of the light. Make sure it's rubber and not foam stripping so it keeps the water out.
