| Description of the problem | While on vacation i was driving during a rain storm and my passenger noticed water coming from the plastic handle inside the cab. After further investigation i found water stains on the headliner on the front passenger side and in the rear of the cab at both corners. My bumper to bumper expired last month, i have been in contact with ford and regardless of how long it has been leaking i was told that i have to pay for repairs. There are numerous complaints on the internet about the same problem. My major issue is the fact that the mold and mildew is a major health issue and now i have to wonder if mold spores is the cause of the respiratory problems i have been having. Ford needs to step up and correct this problem!!! |
