Regarding the hatch, my car has bodywork (bondo) at the right rear corner, so I suspect the hatch doesn't completely seal as the body is tweaked or the hatch is tweaked. I have not yet tried to fix it.
The water getting into the forward part of the car is also a mystery, I am suspicious of the sunroof drains (there are four) but I have not yet definitively determined that.

Well Max, if you look at my thread history, you'll find one where I went through an exhaustive process to eventually find water was actually seeping in from a small crack in the front passenger footwell floor. The water was collecting because of the ridiculous amount of blockage that I had on the front passenger side drain. To access this one, you'll need to remove a few screws on the fender liner etc. I took the tire off for better access.
For the rear, mine has no bondo and no water (so far) in the 3rd row footwell. I have no doubt that If I didn't open it to check, that depression would overflow into it though. I wonder if its coming in through the hatch seal, flowing INSIDE the hatch and following the motors cables or whatnot into the lock depression.
