You are the man-you saved me from pulling apart the side covers- my leak filled up the spare tire basin and ran down to the rear floors not to mention the rear mats- thanks a lot you saved a lot of people money from greedy dealers
Dude I watched your video about a year ago and you were absolutely right, the leak was right around the hinges so I end up using a black duck tape since that my car is black. Since then nobody even notice those tapes and I never had leak anymore.
Man i thought I was the only one having this problem good to know you were able to get it fix i recently did the same thing as you did just today hopefully it fixes my problem as well. I was thinking of getting a new weather strip from the dealer thinking it was the problem that rubber part cost $300 im like hell no!
Thanks a lot from Pittsburgh PA for posting this video! We had a leak in the back of our Murano similar to yours. I followed your advice and looked at the seams, then pulled the ceiling down like you did -- only to discover that a bolt had fallen from one of the top hinges connecting the liftgate to the roof! This created a small gap on the roof right in the channel for draining rainwater. I used a 13mm wrench to secure the bolt, tightened the other bolt, and then applied the Permatex silicone you had used to where the hatch meets the roof just for good measure. Poured a bunch of water into the channel (with the liftgate down, since I think when it was up its weight pushed down enough on the hinge to force that gap closed), and no leak anymore! I wouldn't have figured this out without your help, so thanks again so much!
You were just credited on Pine Hollow Diagnostics (a popular Mechanic that solves problems other mechanics can't seem to) for helping him with a client that water had damaged his electronics. Good thing for your posting
So happy to have found your video; thank you for your perseverance and for sharing. I thought the leak only occurred when I went through certain car washes and that I was losing my mind b/c I smelled a faint mildew smell when I dared not have the A/C cranked. Already living in a condo with a leaky roof and a boyfriend who thinks I'm insane every time I walk in and announce "I smell mold!!", I was sure that I was having olfactory flashbacks or something when I smelled mold in my vehicle, too. So I've been driving around in a dirty Mo, freezing, and wondering if there's a treatment for my nose-psychosis. Tropical Storm Elsa just passed over So Flo and the mysterious "minor" leak has graduated to "Houston may have a problem, but you have a flood." I'll be attempting silicone fix and headliner cleaning this weekend. Fingers crossed. p,s, Daughter of a retired firefighter, here; thank you for your other services as well.

Thank you so much for the informative video and the explanation! I probably would've never figured it out.

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to record this! You definitely helped me, including the airbag light, and I really appreciate it!
Thank you for taking your time to explain the problem, mine was leaking for a year finally I watched your post and my Murano is bone dry.

Thank you so much! I would have gone thru all the steps you went thru and probably still not figured it out! You're are a great help!
Thank you very much for sharing, got an 05 Murano, will give your way a shot.

Awesome, thanks! I am suffering the same problem. I looked at that seam but did not think that could be the issue. Wow, little did I know!
