Truck is still under warranty, but dealer won't cover it because mechanic claims its from road salt. As for rear leak in cab, just called me and said they are having rear window pulled and revealed on Thursday, but how can it be the window when it is leaking on the roof in upper corner....can't wait to see what they try and Bill me for, they think because I am a woman I am stupid.....

I just had the gasket replaced on rear cap break light...next day went out and is leaking worse than before..have a 2010 f150.not only is headliner all stained, but carpet is moldy... Dealer told me they had a lot that were leaking and even had gaskets in stock...well if they knew they where leaking why not change them when it was in for service, instead of waiting til all the water damage. Now they say it's not covered by my warranty.... Also just found out my rocker panels are rusting bad and also won't cover it...Truck has 45,000. Miles on it... Trying to tell me it's from road salt.. I don't hardly drive it in winter, drive my other car...than dealer gives me a 2011 f150 to drive til they trying and fix mine. And guess what. The rocker panels on it are starting to rust....has 25,000 miles on it... Will never buy another ford truck...

My 2013 started leaking this spring. I was told it was the rivet on the roof. Dealer fixed it. Few weeks later leaked again. This time they said it was the rear window. Dealer pulled the rear window and put in a new window seal. It leaked again, so they pulled the window again and broke the window in the process. Now they said it was the 3rd brake light? So now, new window and seal new brake light seal. Got truck back, leaked again. Now back to the pop rivet! Put a bunch of sealer on the rivet. Fixed the leak, but my headliner was a mess. Took 2 weeks for Ford to agree to put a new headliner in my truck. This is my 4th F150. I have had an 86, 92, and an 02. This 2013 will be my last Ford Truck!!

After reading all these threads, I thought what the heck, so I jumped in my box last week and popped off the third brake light. I have a 2013 FX4 supercrew...anyway, I was surprised to see there was fine dirt covering all the inside of the light gasket...which tells me that water has been penetrating past the gasket. I say I was surprised because this isn't a new problem and folks been complaining about this for a few years now and Ford still hasn't done anything about it?
Anyway, a good bead of clear silicone around the light gasket and she's sealed up good. I'll probably need a utility blade to cut through it if a light goes out but thats easier than rusted out panels.

2010 f150 water and rust
Well, it's been almost two weeks since the dealer has my truck, still haven't gotten it back , they took it to a body shop to have rear window pulled and resealed...didn't work, than the body shop was working on rain stripe on left side of cab, guessing the cab seam is split...what next....am real sick of this..want it back so I can get rid of it....

I used clear outdoor silicone and sealed the crap out of the third brake light housing and satellite antenna.
I was seeing water and dirt in my 2014 3rd brake light.
So far the silicone is doing the trick.
All Ford will do is put the same gasket back in and the problem will not be resolved.

rear window leak
Has anyone ever encountered a roof leak in the back seat of their truck or even heard of this. I am trying to find out if this is a known problem with the 2010 F150's. After heavy rains yesterday the back seat on the driver side was completely soaked. As I tried to figure out how I assumed it was the seal on the rear window but looking closer I noticiced the headliner between the door and rear window was full of water and dripping. I am waiting for my service department to open so I can call but was curious if anyone out there has encountered this.
Goodluck.My window still leaks

I cannot remember if I shared my resolution.
It turned out to be my back window seal that was leaking. I had to pull the headliner to figure it out. I just used clear silicone and sealed it. I could have taken it to be pulled and put back in but that cost more than a tube of silicone.

I took off the 3rd brake light and attempted to put clear silicone all along the edge of the gasket. Hopefully I did a good enough job. What if I want to take the light off again w/ the silicone on there? Is that going to be a problem?
