If you like the moonroof, I would get it. You have to remember, this is an internet forum. More people come here to address an issue versus not having an issue. I'm sure the majority of trucks built have a moonroof that doesn't leak. Mine doesn't leak and I really love having the moonroof.

It seems most water will travel into the front drains because of the rake, but only if the truck is parked on level ground. Anyone notice their moonroof being recessed? Mine doesn't sit very flush with the cab. The front corners actually pool water because of the recess and rake. I looked at another truck at the dealership this morning. It was recessed some, but better than mine. Maybe there's just an acceptable variation - sort of like the door gaps.

UPDATE:
Got the truck back Thursday morning.
Thursday night we had about 1/2" of rain. NO LEAKS.
Friday night we had a thunderstorm with tornados in area and it bellywashed up to 1 3/4" of rain. The rain was fiercely driven, a lot of it.....
This morning I checked it out thoroughly and NO LEAKS !!!!
Also, this is kind of an acid test because where I park the truck in our driveway it's a bit inclined. Simply meaning that the two forward drains would be doing all the work. If you were level then you'd further have the benefit of all four drains in play.
This is my sixth Ford of which this is my third truck. As I said previously Ford is a good company for many reasons. I suggest to all who have followed my posts to review them critically vs emotionally. I look forward to enjoying this vehicle as thoroughly as ever. Even now as I drive it this seems like a distant memory. Not even sure if it happened to me.
Thanks to all for the input and civil comments. GLTA

While there may be several having this issue it is not wide spread. I have had mine since December 20 - high pressure wash, driving hard rain, etc. Never a leak.
Glad yours was fixed and done correctly.
