I bought a Rowenta and had the problem of it leaking. Here is how to fix it. Go to your local automotive parts store and get a tube of High Temperature Gasket Sealer. It's usually red. Take out all the screws and gently pull the dial under the handle out. Then carefully pull the Iron apart. You will find that the water tank is open on one side (nort really a tank) Make sure everything is dry and put the silicone on the seal area for the tank and reassemble ( Be Generous with the silicone). Wait at least 12 hours before using.
