If the stripping looks good no rips and such. Check the door alignment.

I had a similar problem with mine. Also, the stripping is old and flat, causing it to leak more. So, instead of paying the $70 to replace it I went for a ghetto fix....I used house weatherstripping. The stuff is a foam type, gray stripping about a 1/2" wide. I applied it to the hatch all the way around, focusing on the top where the gutter is. You can't even really see the stripping. Best of all...it hasn't leaked a drop since I applied it over a year ago. Go ghetto!
