Is the leakage between the glass and the side window frame, or between the
frame and the body? Or do both need to be resealed?
I figured I should start by sitting in the back at a carwash. Short of
locating the leaks, I figured the hatch seal was a good place to start.

The source of the water is often from around the rear side windows (THE
STATIONARY ONES) and resealing them is a chore. I haven't heard of the
rear hatch seals causing a problem unless the hatch isn't aligned, but
if the seal is damaged, that could certainly do it.
