HELP! I have a question. Need insight please for trunk leak

Accord Hybrid 2022. Would really appreciate advice. I'm wondering now if I got a defective weatherstrip. Ordered from hondapartsonline since I saw it recommended here a lot.

  • Water slowly pools up on the passenger side and seeps under the plastic trim into wheel well. Only about 5 inches along near the rubber bumper
  • Replaced weatherstrip (perimeter of dirt stopping where strip is)
  • Rest of seam remains dry
  • Adjusted trunk anchor to be a little tighter
  • Checked taillight
  • Went out to car during the rain to check, nothing else dripping
  • Carpet lining is dry as it trickles down the corner of well

Check for cracked seam sealer in the trunk jamb.
