Leaking rear passenger grab handle
Have had this happen after heavy rain and it poured here all day yesterday. The grab handle above the door in the back seat drips during heavy rains? Go to a soccer mnatch at 7 last night seat is soaked. Any ideas?

My bet would be on either a compromised polyethelene sheet that covers the door chassis just underneath the door panel or a window rubber trim/seal that's either deformed or missing which allows driving rain to enter the door chassis.
Many shade-tree mechanics will go in there to repair a window regulator or other door-resident component and won't repair or re-glue the polyethelene sheet back onto the door frame when finished. If you want to try to repair this at home, get yourself some Wurth spray adhesive which works well with polyethelene sheet.

No its actually the grab handle on the inside of the ceiling not on the door. Where the convenience light is> Just a drip. Must be leaking through from the roof rails or something?
