Theres an opening at the top of the seal, where the roof meets the hatch, on both sides of the hatch. this is where the water enters and it slowly leaks out at the bottom part of the hatch, particularly the corners. To prevent water from entering, try putting a piece of scotch tape on those openings the next time u wash your car and peel it off after u dry it. For me though I usually just put a towel along the bottom part of the hatch for about 15 mins to collect the water.

It was like "Son, let go dry the car". One minute later we would be blasting down the freeway at like 80mph. The quickest car drying ever. LOL !!!!
No wonder I turned into a speed freak.
