Saturn Vue water in trunk area

Aug 15, 2008 3 Replies

I have a 2005 Vue, and I keep finding water in the trunk area where the spare tire is. Can't figure out how it is getting in there. Anybody else have this problem?


Have you tried running water over the VUE with someone inside to see if they can visually see any leaks? Hit it with a high power garden hose, and then without the nozzle to see if you can simulate hard and heavy downpours.

Only after a night of kegging...

Have you checked the knock-outs in the bottom of the trunk area? I know there's at least one on the driver's side that you're supposed to punch out and fit with a rubber grommet to run trailer wiring. It seems unlikely that you'd get any significant water in the trunk area even if it was punched, but it might be worth checking.
