    usually a bad hatch rubber, crack in the rain gutter, or leak in hatch hinge area

    Sorry, wanted to know to make it go away. My priuschat research suggests I should just apply sealant on problem spots until the problem goes away. I am not good at seeing cracks... it all looks uncracked to me.

    Very common to have a leak at the upper left corner where two seams meet near the left rain gutter trim.
