| Hard to say without more info. I'd say, fold the back seat & crawl into the trunk while someone sprays it with a hose to find where it's coming in. Does it have a spoiler on the trunk lid? Any damage to taillights or rear windshield seals? Is the 3rd brake light in the rear window or on the trunk lid? Those would be my first 3 guesses, followed by a possible failed or improperly attached trunk gasket

| Most trunks have a rain gutter at the edge where the trunk lid meets the body of the car, check for rusted through pinhole leaks in this gutter, or accumulated crud, leaf litter, etc. that make the water overflow. |

| Had wet trunk due to a rubber drain plug that popped loose. It was under the carpeting which wicked the water everywhere. It popped in so was not lost, just reinstalled and kinda watched it.

That sounds like a common sense troubleshooting that I wouldn't think of. Except, he doesn't need to fold down the back seat; i don't think they fold down anyway. He can just crawl into the trunk with a flashlight while someone sprays the outside.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Every Accord I've been in was able to fold the rear seats down. Acuras less so. Someone would just need to sit in the back seat with a flashlight & watch for water. Hope its something simple.
