Foil finish peeling off of interior chrome door handle. Very very sharp edges. Cut finger

2010 Ford F-150, 2 of my doors cannot be opened due to a defect of components in the handles. Ford does have a recall affecting the the same situation as mine, but according to my VIN# my vehicle is not included. This could be a deadly situation if needing to exit the vehicle through those doors. I will attach a copy of the recall and of my door handles.

MY PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR IS STUCK CLOSED. I HAVE TRIED TO OPEN IT FROM INSIDE AND OUTSIDE AND MADE SURE IT WAS NOT LOCKED. I HAVE REMOVED THE DOOR PANEL INSIDE AS MUCH AS I COULD TO TRY AND PULL THE CABLE FOR THE LATCH. EVEN PULLING THE CABLE TO THE LOCK ACTUATOR DOES NOT DISENGAGE THE DOOR LATCH. WHEN I DID THIS I NOTICED THAT THE DOOR HANDLE SPRING HAD BROKEN THROUGH THE PLASTIC THAT HOLDS IT IN PLACE. I TRIED TO RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THAT IT WAS VIN SPECIFIC. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THERE CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE WARRANTING A RECALL, MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THOSE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL YET MINE IS NOT COVERED. I ASKED WHY THAT WOULD BE AND THE CSR ONLY ANSWERED WITH HIS SCRIPTED RESPONSE OF 'THIS IS A VIN SPECIFIC RECALL'. DESPITE THIS, I ORDERED A NEW DOOR HANDLE AND WAITED FOR IT TO ARRIVE HOPEFULLY THINKING THAT IT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER ONCE THE NEW HANDLE WAS INSTALLED, THE DOOR STILL WILL NOT OPEN.

SEATBELT CHIME/ ALARM IS DEFECTIVE. SEE ALL YOUTUBE VIDEOS SHOWING SO. SEATBELT LIGHT AND CHIME CONTINUOUSLY STAY ON AND CHIME ALARM CONTINUOUSLY RINGS EVEN WHILE SEATBELTS ARE ON & LOCKED IN POSITION. THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING AND A DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR DRIVERS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE IT GO OFF/ WORK CORRECTLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS SEATBELT CHIME IS DEFECTIVE IS BOTH WHEN DRIVING / IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. BODY/WINDSHIELD AREA STRUCTURAL DEFECT- THERE IS A HOLE/OPENING THAT ALLOWS RAIN/ WATER TO LEAK INTO INTERIOR OF TRUCK, LEAKING WATER INSIDE TRUCK INTERIOR FROM UPPER BUILD SEAM, THROUGH THE GRAB HANDLE LOCATED AT SIDE OF WINDSHIELD IN FRONT OF FRONT PASSENGER, THEN LIQUID DRIPS DOWN ONTO CARPETED FLOORBOARD. THIS BODY STRUCTURE DEFECTIVE OPENING/ HOLE IS LOCATED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN UPPER WINDSHIELD SEAM AND THE INTERIOR FRONT PASSENGER GRAB HANDLE AT WINDSHIELD FRAME. WATER DRIPS THROUGH THIS HANDLE. THIS WINDSHIELD LEAK DEFECT OCCURS WHEN THE TRUCK IS IN MOTION AND WHEN STATIONARY. ELECTRICAL/IGNITION SWITCH- TURNING ON TRACK WITH IGNITION KEY, IGNITION SWITCH DOES NOT ALWAYS PERFORM CORRECTLY. IT OFTEN DISALLOWS THE AC, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND BACKUP CAMERA TO WORK, WHILE EVERYTHING ELSE IS WORKING. BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE MAY BE WORKING, THE DRIVER MAY NOT NOTICE THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH HAS BEEN TURNED ON INCORRECTLY.THIS DEFECT, ESPECIALLY THE BACK UP CAMERA NOT WORKING, AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS, IS DANGEROUS. THE SWITCH SHOULD BE MADE TO CONSISTENTLY WORK AT ALL TIMES THE SAME WAY. THIS DEFECT IS NOTICED WHEN STATIONARY, BUT OFTEN WHEN IT'S TOO LATE AND IN MOTION.

RUSTING HORRIBLY LAST 2 YEARS BY REAR DOORS AND ROCKERS

THE DAY I WENT TO PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEN THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THAT HAS CAUSED THE RADIO NOT TO WORK. THAT THEY WILL FIX IT NEXT DAY.

2012. WENT TO GREAT LAKES FORD LUDINGTON MI. PAINT ON ROCKER PANEL WAS BLISTERING UP WITH WATER UNDERNEATH. AT WHERE THE DOORS LATCH ON HOOK .THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING.IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY. NOW RUSTING VERY BAD CALLED IN 4/17/18. FORD STILL WILL NOT DO ANYTHING . I NOW PUT OIL ON IT TO SLOW IT DOWN .IM VERY WORRIED THAT IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THAT THE DOORS WILL COME OPEN. IT'S. ON BOTH SIDES . I HAVE 103000 MILES ON IT. THE SEAT BELTS GO THROUGH THE DOORS SO IF THE DOORS OPEN I WOULD BE OUT OF THE TRUCK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

THE ROCKER PANELS ARE RUSTED BADLY. THE ROCKER PANEL KEEPS THE DOORS CLOSED. WHEN THE RUST GETS TO THE POINT WHERE THE LATCH IS THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY CLOSED. IT HAS NOT HAPPENED YET BUT IT APPEARS THIS WILL HAPPEN IN THE NEAR FUTURE. WITH THE RUST THIS BAD I AM VERY CONCERNED IF THERE WOULD EVER BE A SIDE IMPACT TO THE VEHICLE. I FIRST NOTICED THE RUST IN THE LATE FALL OF 2017.

TRUCK WAS BROUGHT IN FOR MINOR RUST ON INSIDE PANELS OF BACK DOORS, WHERE THE DOOR CLOSES. BODY SHOP STATED THAT MAYBE THE DRAIN CHANNEL WAS BLOCKED. UPON PICKING THE TRUCK UP AFTER REPAIR I WAS TOLD THAT THE ROCKER PANELS ON BOTH SIDES WERE SO RUSTED OUT THEY WERE BEYOND REPAIR. THEY STATED IT LOOKS LIKE THE TRUCK SAT IN WATER FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW FROM A DEALER IN AMELIA OH 43011 I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I HAVE LOOKED ON THE WEB AND IT SEEMS THIS IS COMMON ON FORD TRUCKS. I WILL COST ME 4900$ TO REPAIR; THE TRUCK LOOKS BRAND NEW AND I HAVE KEPT IT IN VERY, VERY GOOD CONDITION. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD BUT THEY WILL NOT HELP, THEY STATED NO RECALL OR WARRANTY ISSUES HAVE BEEN REPORTED AT THIS TIME. WHY HAVEN'T THEIR ENGINEERS CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM?

THE SNOW WAS FALLING AND THEREFORE MY REAR WINDOW HAD A LIGHT AMOUNT OF SNOW ON IT AND WAS HARD TO SEE OUT OF. I TURNED ON MY REAR DEFROST FOR MY POWER SLIDING WINDOW, AND APPROXIMATELY TWO MINUTES LATER I HEARD A LOUD NOISE. I NOTICED A FEW MINUTES LATER MY LEFT REAR WINDOW PANEL WAS NOT DEFROSTING. I PARKED MY VEHICLE OVERNIGHT IN MY GARAGE AND IN THE MORNING REALIZED THE LEFT REAR WINDOW PANEL HAD BROKEN. UPON LOOKING AT IT FURTHER I FOUND THAT THERE WAS NO IMPACT FROM ANY OBJECT, AND THE GLASS FRAGMENTS WERE BEING HELD TOGETHER BY THE TINT. I BEGAN RESEARCHING FOR A PRICE TO GET MY WINDOW FIXED AND DISCOVERED HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE WINDOW EXPLODING WHEN USING THE DEFROST. THERE HAD BEEN NO DAMAGE TO THE WINDOW PRIOR TO THIS EVENING AND THERE WAS NO IMPACT TO THE WINDOW WHEN IT OCCURRED. THE WINDOW DEFROSTER WAS BEING OPERATED AS I HAVE IN MULTIPLE VEHICLES. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS, I FOUND IT WAS A VERY COMMON ISSUE.

I AGAIN CONTACT THE FORD, BUT WAS TOLD THE REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVE MADE THE DECISION AND NOTHING MORE WOULD BE DONE. ON 1/13/17, I PAID $585 TO HAVE THE GLASS REPAIRED.

IT'S STATED THE LEAK IS MORE OFTEN THAN NOT FROM THE TRUCK'S 3RD BRAKE LIGHT, AND THE PASSENGER SIDE HANDLE LEAK IS FROM A LEAKING SATELLITE ANTENNAE. THIS HAZARDOUS CONDITION CAN LEAD TO MOLD, ROT AND RUST ISSUES WITH THE TRUCK, AS WELL AS POTENTIALLY SHORT OUT ELECTRICAL DUE TO WATER RUNNING DOWN THE VEHICLE'S INTERIOR FRAME AND COLLECTING ON THE VEHICLE'S FLOORBOARD AND ELECTRICAL CHANNEL AREAS.

THE INSIDE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE IS STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION. PASSENGERS ARE FORCED TO PUSH THE HANDLE BACK INTO THE CLOSED POSITION WHEN RIDING. THIS PROBLEM IS IN FACT LISTED AS A RECALL ITEM FOR THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR OF MY VEHICLE. I CONTACTED FORD AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER/ FACTORY WAS NOT INCLUDED. ACCORDING TO THE RECALL(NHTSA CAMPAIGN #:11V049000), THIS DEFECT COULD CAUSE THE DOOR TO FLY OPEN IN AN ACCIDENT. ALTHOUGH FORD DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM EXIST WITH MY VEHICLE IN PARTICULAR OR PERHAPS THE PLANT WHERE IT WAS MANUFACTURED; THIS DOES NOT CHANGE THE REALITY THAT IT HAPPENED. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THE REPAIRS DONE AT MY OWN COST. MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN A PASSENGER OPENED THE DOOR; ONLY TO FIND THAT THE HANDLE WOULD NOT GO BACK TO CLOSED POSITION.

THE INTERIOR DRIVER'S DOOR HANDLE WILL NOT GO BACK INTO POSITION AFTER OPENING THUS CAUSING THE DOOR TO FLING OPEN IF DRIVER DOES NOT PUSH THE HANDLE BACK INTO POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY YESTERDAY WHEN I NOTICED THE HANDLE DID NOT GO BACK. THEN YESTERDAY LEAVING THE PARKING LOT, MAKING A RIGHT TURN MY DOOR FLUNG OPEN BECAUSE I DIDN'T ENSURE THE HANDLE WAS STOWED. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ITEM UNDER FORD #11S15 BUT THE VIN DOES NOT PULL UP THIS RECALL. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU NEED PICS BECAUSE THE TRUCK IS AT THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT NOW WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT DOES NOT FALL UNDER THIS RECALL WHEN CLEARLY IT IS THE EXACT SAME SAFETY ISSUE.

I PURCHASED A 2010 FORD F150 XLT ON 31MAY2010. ON 15 APRIL 2015, I NOTICED THAT CONDENSATION WAS ACCUMULATING ON THE INSIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD. SINCE THE WINDSHIELD HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN REPLACE, I ASSUMED THAT IT HAD A LEAK, AND HAD A NEW WINDSHIELD INSTALLED UNDER THE WARRANTY. AGAIN ON THE MORNING OF 4 MAY 2015, WATER WAS ACCUMULATED ON THE INSIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD, AGAIN THE WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED. ON 2 NOV 2015, THE INSIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD WAS DRIPPING WITH CONDENSATION. I GOT ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF ANYTHING OTHER THAN A BAD WINDSHIELD WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. I LOCATED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS INDICATING PROBLEMS WITH THE SATELLITE ANTENNA LEAKING AND THE THIRD BREAK LIGHT LEAKING INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. I THEN TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER, JOHNSON BROTHERS FORD WHO CONFIRMED THAT I DID INDEED HAVE A LEAK AT BOTH THE ANTENNA AND BREAK LIGHT, THE TRUCK WHILE ONLY HAVING 31000 MILES, WAS 5 1/2 YEARS OLD, AND OUT OF THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY PERIOD, THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE PROBLEMS EITHER.I WAS QUOTED A COST OF $740. TO REPLACE THE LIGHT AND ANTENNA. I REPLACED THE LIGHT MY SELF, AND THEY CHARGED $440.00 TO REPLACE THE ANTENNA, I INCURRED ANOTHER COST OF $304. TO HAVE THE CARPETS REMOVED DRIED OUT, FLOOR TREATED FOR ANY MILDEW, OR MOLD, AND REINSTALLED. I COMPLAINED TO FORD, THIS IS A DESIGN ISSUE THAT HAS GONE ON SINCE 1998. FORD SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL. I ALSO HAD A GALLON OF WATER ON MY FLOOR AFTER THE CARPETS WERE REMOVED. SOMEONE AT THE FACTORY PLACED TAPE OVER THE DRAIN HOLES OF THE FLOOR BOARD WHEN THE TRUCK WAS MADE. WHILE WE DID HAVE A LOT OF RAIN IN TEXAS THIS YEAR, WHICH MAY ACCOUNT FOR THE AMOUNT OF WATER IN THE VEHICLE, IT STILL STANDS TO REASON NO VEHICLE SHOULD BE LEAKING THRU ANTENNAS, OR BREAK LIGHTS. EVEN THE TSB'S DO NOT WORK AS MY ANTENNA HAD SILICONE ON THE ANTENNA FROM THE FACTORY. *TR

ON THE MORNING OF 12/29/14, HE HAD A HEAVY FROST SO I USED MY REAR WINDOW DEFROST ON MY DRIVE TO WORK. DRIVE WAS APPROX. 10 MINUTES. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK AT WORK, ALL GLASS WAS OK. WHEN I GOT BACK IN TRUCK TO LEAVE WORK, I LOOKED IN REAR VIEW MIRROR, I SAW THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE THREE PIECE REAR WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. THE GLASS STAYED IN THE FRAME AND DID NOT FALL OUT. I HAD TO SPEND OVER AN HOUR ON THE PHONE WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY JUST TO FILE A CLAIM, AND IT TOOK THE GLASS COMPANY TWO TRIES TO INSTALL THE NEW REAR WINDOW AND REWIRE IT TO MAKE IT WORK AGAIN. FORD KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY HAVE CHANGED THE DESIGN ON THE WINDOW ALONG WITH THE WIRING TO THE WINDOW. WHY WILL FORD NOT STEP UP AND AT LEAST ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE REAR DEFROST AND OFFER TO FIX IT.

AIR TEMP STAYED JUST BELOW FREEZING ALL DAY. HAD TO SPEND ROUGHLY AN HOUR ON THE PHONE WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND MY FORD DEALER TO GET THE PART ORDERED. IT WILL BE FOUR DAYS TILL IT WILL BE FIXED. I JUST HOPE NOTHING HAPPENS THAT WILL CAUSE THE GLASS TO FALL OUT OF THE FRAME. I DRIVE MY TRUCK AT LEAST 6 DAYS A WEEK SO I CANNOT BE WITHOUT IT.

WATER LEAKS THROUGH THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT LENS DURING HARD RAIN OR AUTO CAR WASH. ENOUGH WATER COMES IN TO SOAK THE BACK SEAT AND THE FLOOR.

I OBSERVED AT LEAST 6 AREAS ON THE ROOF OF MY TRUCK WHERE THE PAINT IS PEELING AWAY FROM THE BODY. THERE IS OBVIOUS RUST UNDER ALL THE SPOTS. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED A MUSTY SMELL IN MY CAR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BODY SHOP AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT SINCE THERE WAS NO PERFORATION IN THE SHEET METAL, IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I POINTED TO THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN THAT IF IT WERE ONE SPOT I COULD SEE THAT AS POSSIBLY SOMETHING MAY HAVE CHIPPED THE PAINT AND CAUSED THE PROBLEM BUT FOR IT TO HAPPEN IN AT LEAST 6 AREAS SPREAD OUT AROUND THE ROOF THAT IT WAS A DEFECT IN MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP AND SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE TECHNICIAN SAID I SHOULD CONTACT FORD DIRECTLY BUT THEY WOULD PROBABLY DENY THE CLAIM. BASED ON WHAT I FOUND ONLINE WHICH INCLUDES AT LEAST 7 NHTSA DOCUMENTED COMPLAINTS AS WELL AS OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT PROBLEMS WITH FORD VEHICLES IT WOULD APPEAR THAT FORD HAS A PROBLEM AT THEIR FACTORIES THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. I PLAN TO GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP NOW THAT I KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT AND LEAKS AROUND IT, AS WELL AS CONTACTING FORD HEADQUARTERS FOR RESOLUTION. *TR

I PURCHASED MY FORD F-150 NEW IN AUGUST 2010. I NOTICED IN SEPTEMBER 2013, MY FUEL FILLER DOOR WAS NOT CLOSING, AND AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION I NOTICED AN INNER MECHANISM, THAT ALLOWS THE DOOR TO REMAIN CLOSED, WAS BROKEN AND NO LONGER KEPT THE DOOR CLOSED. THIS PLASTIC DOOR COSTS APPROXIMATELY $75.00 TO REPLACE, SIGNIFICANTLY MORE IF THE DEALER INSTALLS IT. THE FRUSTRATING THING IS MY SON-IN-LAW, AS WELL AS MY BROTHER BOTH OWN LATE MODEL FORD F-150'S, AND BOTH HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. FORD (THROUGH THEIR DEALERSHIPS) HASN'T FELT THE NEED TO MAKE GOOD ON AN OBVIOUS WORKMANSHIP ISSUE, SO THE CONSUMER IS LEFT TO REPLACE THIS DOOR EVERY 3 YEARS OR SO. I SHOULD ALSO NOTE THAT HAVING THE DOOR COMPLETELY SECURE AND CLOSED IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP WATER AND OTHER DEBRIS OUT OF THE FUEL TANK, AS THE FUEL TANK ON THE LATE MODEL F-150'S DOES NOT HAVE A FUEL CAP. WE HAVEN'T HEARD OF ANY RECALLS, OR PLANS FOR ONE, BUT HOPEFULLY YOU'VE HEARD ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THAT SOMETHING CAN BE DONE. THANK YOU. *TR

ISSUES BEGAN ON FRIDAY MORNING. HAD A WARNING ON DASH INDICATING LEFT REAR DOOR AJAR, WHEN IN FACT THE DOOR WAS CLOSED. TOOK TO DEALER WHO SAID IT WAS PROBABLY A BAD SENSOR AND FOR $400 THEY COULD FIX IT. FAULTY WARNING WILL NOT LET AUTO LOCKS ENGAGE OR ALARM TO SET AS IT IS READING THE DOOR AS OPEN. HUGE SAFETY CONCERN IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING WITH A CHILD, THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK AND YOU HAPPEN TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. POSSIBLE EJECTION OF PASSENGERS. THEN CAME OUT TO THE TRUCK ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND NOTICED THE REAR SEATS WERE WET. UNABLE TO FIND OUT WHY. FURTHER INVESTIGATION TODAY REVEALS THAT THE HEADLINER IS DAMAGED FROM WATER DAMAGE. READING SEVERAL PLACES ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THE F-150 HAS A BAD LEAKING PROBLEM FROM THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ON THE REAR OF THE CAB.

THE SERVICE REP, THEN GAVE THE CONSUMER A TUBE OF SILICONE THAT WAS USED PRIMARILY FOR BRAKE COMPONENTS AND INFORMED THE CONSUMER, IF THE NOISE RETURNED, LUBRICATE THE TAILGATE LATCH. FOR AWHILE, THERE WAS NO NOISE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS LATER, THE NOISE HAD RETURNED. THE CONSUMER WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER, TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER, THAT THE PREVIOUS DEALER PROVIDED HIM WITH THE WRONG TYPE OF LUBRICANT AND THE DEALER REASSURED HIM THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN RESOLVED. HOWEVER, TWO MONTHS LATER, THE NOISE HAD RETURNED AGAIN. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER AGAIN, WHERE THEY CHOSE TO LUBRICATE THE TAILGATE LATCH ASSEMBLY FOR THE THIRD TIME.

AFTER OWNING MY TRUCK FOR NEARLY 2 YEARS I BEGAN TO NOTICE A MUSTY SMELL. LAST WEEKEND MY KIDS WERE RIDING IN THE BACK SEAT AND NOTICED WATER POOLED ON THE CENTER SEATBELT FRAME. I IMMEDIATELY THOUGHT THE SLIDING GLASS WINDOW WAS PARTIALLY OPENED, BUT IT WASN'T. BESIDES IT WAS NO WHERE NEAR WHERE THE WATER WAS POOLING. THEN WE NOTICED IN BOTH CORNERS OF THE HEADLINER DARK WATER STAINS. JUST BY LOOKING AT THE CAB OF THE TRUCK IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE IT IS THE MOLDING THAT EXTENDS ABOUT 18 INCHES UP THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. I'M THINKING IT WASN'T PROPERLY SEALED ON THE ROOF. I AM SURE IT HAS BEEN LEAKING SINCE DAY ONE,BUT WITH THE DROUGHT HERE IN HOUSTON FOR THE LAST YEAR I AM JUST NOW NOTICING SINCE IT RAINS AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK. FORD IS SAYING IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. EXCUSE ME BUT WHY IS THIS CONSIDERED WARRANTY WORK WHEN IT IS CLEARLY CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THE TRUCK.
