My 2014 (14 months old, 2800 miles) just developed the A pillar leak.

Exactly like this video:


NOT a happy camper.

I went through this also and the dealer blamed it on leaking drain tubes that run from the sunroof down the pillars. They blew out the lines and fixed the leak. The problem is that I never used the sunroof! My neighbors King Ranch had been leaking from his rear cargo light on the back of the cab.

I have a 2014 and have been experiencing the water leak problem too. Headliner gets soaks in driver side rear corner and water drips inside onto seat and behind seat. First dealer couldn't replicate the problem after two days last summer. This time a different dealer replaced the third brake light without even testing. They did a horrible job replacing it. Still leaks and even worse. Have appointment tomorrow at dealer I bought truck from. This is unacceptable.

If anyone has had this problem and found out where it leaks from can you pass the information onto me as when I called my dealership they said they had never heard of it before but to bring it in.
Thanks
My 2010 did the same thing from the same spot. It was the windshield leaking, they resealed it and never had an issue the 4 years I had it

I used painters (blue) tape to seal off the sunroof and that's where the leak was.

Now to figure out how to clean the drain tubes

It should not be too hard as the tubes run from each corner down the pillar. Take a air gun and place it to the tube and blow air in spurts. So you do not blow the tubes out. I betting you might find a couple of vids on you tube on doing it!

Just purchased a 2010 STX Supercab, and first time it rained, my passenger floorboard has water in it. I found this thread and I'm thinking it's the Sirius antenna. Now I gotta figure out how to fix it.


Well crap. Just walked outside to check it out, and I don't even HAVE a Sirius antenna! I haven't even paid attention to the roof of the truck, just saw it on the radio and figured it was up there. Guess I'll check the seal around the windshield and maybe run a bead of silicon around the top.

Do you have a sun roof? if so the tubes that drain the water from it is clogged up. mine did this when it was only a month old. the water leaks from the passenger side door handle. Ford is also known for the rear light behind the cab.

Nope, no sunroof. I'm taking it back to the dealer Thursday. It has a whistle around the top of the windshield indicating a leak there so he's going to pull the windshield and reseal or replace it, and then test it for further leaks. I'm thinking that'll fix the issue.
