Default Possible trunk leak, Nav keeps rebooting

Anyone familiar with these issues? I searched and could not find any info on 6th gen. I see trunk leak has been a issue for while and Nav has been a issue for IS models.

A quick search came up with this thread.

That is the only time that I can recall anyone saying on this board that he/she has had a trunk leak.

I do know, though, that, if you open the trunk while or after it has been raining and water is sitting on the trunk lid, some of that water will run toward and into the space between the trunk lid and the back window.

Thank you. I had some papers in the trunk that got wet. No reason to be. Apparently Lexus satellite/gps was down. I have to go into the dealership so they can disconnect battery for 30 sec

When I started my car this morning, the navigation and entertainment phone system was out and the boot up screen kept cycling on. I called the dealer who informed me that the satellite download an update that had a bug and caused this problem.

Service Rep said you have to disconnect the negative pole on the battery FOR 2 MINUTES. I am not sure 30 seconds will be enough time for the memory chip to dissipate.
