Description of the problem	I have owned this truck since 2004, no serious issues. This past friday i noticed power was still going to my truck when it was turned off. The power accessory relay was clicking vigorously then stopped, no power inside my vehicle. I started the truck and everything worked except for the radio. I went for a drive than and then the reverse lights came on the door buzzer was going off, as i went to stop i heard a grinding noise occur than stopped. Was able to get it home. I have 30 years of mechanic experience and tried to find a possible short. When i removed the passenger side rocker panel i found the harness covered in rusty water. Now doing research on the internet, i have seen hundreds of people complaining about this issue, that ford wont cover. It turns out many people had to have wiring harness replaced costing thousands. While conducting my research i have found out water is leaking through the windshield the rear window and wiring harness that travels through the firewall. Please help, ford will not admit to their mistake.
