HYUNDAI IX35 Diesel - Registered June 2011 - Water Leak into spare tyre well - richard price

Noticed puddle of water in the tyre well, dealership are having it for a week early Jan to remove bumper etc, luckily I was able to photograph where it was dripping in from inside vents directley below lock. I asked them if this was a known problem they said no.

Is there anybody else out there with the same problem. Thanks.

Have looked on the Hyundai Owners Club ix35 forum, and, of the 43 topics raised since early 2010, none have been about water leaks.

after christmas main dealer took the back end apart and I was told they resealed the lights and after all the rain no leaks so it looks like the problem has been solved.
