I’ve been noticing what I thought was condensation streaks on the back window over the past month of so.
Well I went through the car wash this morning and yup, window leak coming from the top.

I know there’s been MANY people with this same issue.
Is there a definitive fix for this? Can’t get into the dealership for another 6 weeks (ha) and don’t want to leave my vehicle for days on end

Did ya read the other threads?
Caulk it or get ready for a new rear window.
Why not just take off the top and enjoy the sunshine?

Add me to the club. We had multiple torrential downpours from repeated atmospheric rivers, and I didn't notice anything, but we just had a sprinkle yesterday and I saw a couple beads of water at the top of the rear window.

Like I said in other threads, my 2019 never leaked but I utilized another option that could be a last resort or for someone that's out of warranty.

I replaced the entire window with a Breezer removable window.

If it's under warranty, they replace the rear window. It's a known issue. Check with your local dealership because my dealership had to send it out to be taken care of. If you look closely at the picture you will see the glass company has a seamless gasket around the window to prevent any future leaks. And yes, I know its a new window because when I got home and opened my truck bed they had left the old window in there. It looks great and I haven't had any moisture in my gladiator since.
