    I have the wet trunk/spare tire area to. Will check this out. Thanks for posting it. I also found a service bulletin for 2013 for the same issue, they say to check the pressure relief valves, also the trunk LIDS liner, check to make sure that the edge of it is not closing on top of the seal, that would also give you a leak.

      If you find out that it is the trunk pressure valve then check out my other video that shows you how to fix it. And if you can please like and subscribe to my channel. Thank you

      @@ProwlersPit also since we have the same car. This happened to me. when you come to a stop and the car shuts off, when the car restarts and your touch screen goes blank, youll need to replace the start stop module, happened to me and couldnt figure it out since the car always restarted no problem. Turns out the start stop function draws from the cars regular battery, and all accessories stay on with the use of the small trunk battery which is controlled by the start/stop module. So car will restart but radio wont stay on when that restart happens. Module was around $200. Other then that the only issue I ever had with mine was it dropped #2 fuel injector on me driving down the highway, car has treated me well otherwise.

    This solved all the water problems I was having. Which was getting water in the trunk and having water on the driver side floorboards.

      Thank you... This is so frustrating! I've tested the trunk... Water doesn't seem to be getting in from the outside. My family and I have tested this several times. Thanks again. I'll try it again.

      @@FullblastNikita make sure you check out both my videos on this. Also there's two other things that are leak issues on these cars. One if you have a sunroof.. the drainage areas leak. Also around the tail light. The gasket wears out. Sometimes you can just tighten it. On a newer Malibu I heard there's also an issue around the third light. The center brake light

    So is the water supposed to go behind were the light has a rubber corner in side the trunk channel hope that makes since at the top of the light there’s a rubber corner but doesn’t sit flush on the metal of the car is it supposed to or is the water supposed to run behind it ??

      I think it's designed that way. Like a type of gutter system. The Chevy dealer should give you a better answer. To know for sure
