There was a water leak that showed itself on the driver side windshield. 4-5 weeks later there were about 10 additional water leaks throughout the windshield. Upon Ford inspecting the vehicle they found that the water leak was due to water gathering under the roof rack, settling within the seal, and running down to the top of the windshield. The water was also running to the back of the car down the same seal and was exiting within the panels by the rear passenger door and passenger side trunk. The seal on the roof had to be replaced and panels removed so interior can be fully cleaned and dried out to avoid mold problem. |
