Default Everything is leaking

I figure I haven't submitted a EDIT woe is me post in a while and was feeling left out.

Just about every rubber cabin seal on my car is leaking. Except the sunroof. The passenger door seal is going and soaked the door card on that side, the hatch seal is leaking and is letting water in the back end of the hatch, the tail lights are leaking and the hatch glass is detaching.

AAAARGH!!!!

OK, I feel better now.

Meh, my rear hatch had a small leak and I just used a generic sealer guy who charged $40 but did a really good job on both the lock latches (I think that's what they're called) as well as some of the seal on the driver's side. I would've done it myself but I really don't know much about sealant.

PS- Isn't it "woe is me"?

I wanted to slow down really fast

I wasn't sure and didn't feel like looking it up on dictionary.com so I put whoa. Should I fix it?

Well considering you have a post already debating whether or not to fix your original post, I would say that's sufficient enough.

I think you should fix it.

Sounds to me like new seals are in order. But sometimes silicon lubricant spray will loosen them up enough so they seal a little better.

I used silicon seal on my hatch years ago and it's still holding great.
