There has been many threads on the hatch leaking. It is a common problem. The water will work its way down to the lowest point.

You can pull the rubber plug under the spare to let the water out.

Mine does it too. Many (me too) feel it comes from the glass at the bottom on the hatch. Fixing it can be a bit of work.

Also...check each rear wheel well (where the jack is stored) L&R. If there is water in them, you can pull the rubber plugs out. I leave mine out permanently.
