    Welp, looks like I'm trading in my 2020 for a 3rd gen.

    JK. 3rd Brake light appears to be leaking after washing the car. Small water stain has appeared after drying. I have an appointment with the dealership tomorrow.

    For those who've gotten this fixed under warranty, is toyota going to do something about the headliner stain, or do I pound sand?

    I'm curious as to where the leak actually is. A small few have had theirs leak as well. I don't recall the fix though.

    @Chip_Tundra I had to replace my high mount brake lamp assy in my 16 Tacoma because of a leak. I had the same mark on my headliner as I noticed the water trail down my back window.
    Toyota warranty should take care of it unless there was outside influence causes.

    Use shaving cream on a clean microfiber rag and it will go away.
