Default '97 Civic Hatchback - Rain Leaks into Trunk

Hi:

I purchased a used '97 Honda Civic Hatchback 6 months ago and all was well
until we had about 2 weeks of rainy weather. Then, passengers in ther rear
seat noticed it "felt wet", especially when the car was braking. Further
investigation revealed that there was about 3 inches of water in the tire
well! When the brakes were applied, the water "sloshed" from the tire well
and ended up under the rear seat!!

I took it to the dealer and they replaced the seal on both rear tail light
assemblies. Is this a common problem with Civics, or was mine the "lucky"
one?

Thanks,
Ron
