Well now I’m in. Mine’s a 14. We’re on a trip and it’s rained like crazy. Never had the top down but I had water in both sides of the rear floorboards. I don’t know if the trunk was wet. Where’s it coming from, anybody know? Water management issues? I’ve run a hose around the seam and nothing. I don’t know about drain tubes or quarter panel seams but those changed in 14 right?

You'd think by 2014 models GM would have corrected the WMS issues. You really need to take it to your dealer if you haven't already before it starts to get moldy. I hope you're still under warranty. I have a 2012 SS convertible and I had the same problems as you. Luckily, all my problems started not long after I bought it and the warranty covered everything. First, I got tons of water in only one side of the rear floor board. They dried it out and fixed the leak. Then, months later, the other side failed. They fixed it and also replaced my top. I haven't had any WMS problems since. Good luck.

I think I’ve solved it. I packed the trunk pretty tight for a trip and I think I pushed them out of shape. It rained on us on the way back and I didn’t have the problem.
