Did you find out where it was leaking from? That sounds like a major leak! Mine leaks at the back window where the seam came apart. For now i have to lay a towl down in the top storage area to catch water. Hopefully will have a new top soon! Just one of the drawbacks of owning a vert! Other than that well worth it!

First check the drains inside the rear panel on each side to make sure they are clean and not holding water.

Almost every leak that I've heard on here was clogged drain. Hope that stopped it for you.
