I have noticed a small spot of condensation on the inside glass of the rear window. It shows up from time to time depending on the temp and humidity levels??? I took it to the dealer and they said they never have seen anything like it. The car is a CPO with 49,200. I am taking it back next week for them to do a "water test". The trim appears to be original and matches up perfectly with the other side.

You may have a small leak on your trim. Might want to convince the dealer to replace it.

Anyone else??... I am now noticing a spot on the other side. The felt actually feels wet. The Dealer said the trim is OK and they have no ideas. ALthough, someone else mentioned it might be a bad Vapor barrier on the door. However, if they determine it was from an earlier repair, it will not be covered? The dealer said the vapor barrier might have been damaged from someone pulling the door off and if so, it will not be covered. I have a feeling it will be very subjective and in their favor.

Same thing is happening to me... had them change the vapor barriers (supposedly they did) but its still coming back.
