    I just purchased my daughter a used 2006 Prius and we found water in the rear right passenger floor board this morning. We have only had the car 3 days. There are on leaks that I could find inside the car. I looked in the tire well and water was there and also near the 12Volt battery also. The brownish/yellow sealant in the tire well that goes around the bottom is also in my 2010 Prius but I noticed that my daughters 2006 Prius the sealant or what I believe to be bodyflex is cracked. I am going to have a body person look and see if he agrees with me that this bodyflex is cracked. Has anyone else had this problem.

    There are several posts about this, please do a search. The issue probably is a tiny crack in the area surrounding the rear hatch opening which allows water to enter, pool around the 12V battery, the tire well, and when it gets bad enough, will flow into the rear seating area.
