Default cars leaking when it rains.

So i did a quick search and nothing really came up.

i have a 95 del sol and i have two problems.. when it rains alot my passenger floor gets soaked. and also after a big storm we had a few weeks ago i can hear water sloshing around behind me. I thought it was in the trunk but i looked and there was nothing there.

any one encounter these problems B4 and are they a easy fix or no?

If i were to take it to honda would they know about these problems or are they not that common.

Thanks

When your saying the trunk do you mean the area where the spare tire goes? And how is the weather stripping around the car?

its for the driver's side but i think it might work for passenger also.

water can get into the truck through a bad weather seal on the trunk lid or also through your tailights, they have a gasket that can go bad over time and let water leak in.
