Water seeps through fabric during rain.
Check that all seams are properly sealed and that the PU coating is intact. Ensure the tent fabric is taut and water is not pooling in any areas. Re-waterproofing treatments may be considered for older tents.
Attachment to car seems loose.
Readjust the webbing straps to ensure they are pulled tight and securely fastened around the vehicle's frame or hatch. Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
