Expert Reply:
We had one customer come back and tell us that in a heavy rain the fabric straps of the Yakima EasyTop Universal Fit Roof Rack part # Y07418 did allow some water to drip into the interior of the vehicle. Unfortunately there's no way to avoid that unless you'd be willing to install a roof rack like the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK318 which is a much more secure rack for your 2013 Chrysler 300 and will not leak.
