I too had a water leak in my Dak ,but get this!!!!!The water collected
in the area where the passenger' feet go. I therefore believed it came
from the front. Boy was I wrong!!! It was leaking in through a gap in
the seal of the brakelight at the back of the cab. It evidently leaked
in between carpet insulation and floor through cannels in the cab
molding and gathered all the way up in front.
My WHOLE interior was removed to discover the source but that panel
you mentioned is NOT loose on mine so I suggest lighting a match up the
dealers @$$ and get them to do their jobs right....I got bent at the
delaer when I bought my dak so I make sure to bend them over to every
chance I get. Come monday I'm takin my baby in for the caliper 'cause
guess what it is locking. I sure as heck ain't payin a dime!!!!!!
