water leak problem on '06+ mustangs
hello all..
anyone familiar with this and is it a major problem on '06-07 cars? thanks! |
You will need to be more specific if you're looking for help... where? leaking in.. or out? how much? when?
|
There was a post about a small hole for the cars with no shaker 1000 that needed a plug not long ago.

Just take it in to the dealer before it gets too wet and does damage to the carpet padding

If you have a SN197, do yourself a favor. After a drive in the rain; or a rainy day - pull the front passenger side access panel [small plastic panel] and with your fingers - probe down below the carpet to the mat beneath. If you have a leak, you will feel moisture here. A TSB is in the works; but frankly up until a couple of days prior to Christmas, Ford was denying the problem [although they had previously swapped out entire vehicles because of leak problems]. The source of the leak(s) is various; and not isolated to one thing. Sh*t design / manufacturing would be a good way to summary it. Some have said that the leak(s) cannot be properly diagonosed and fixed without removing the right front fender of the vehicle. I do not have this problem although many suspect that it is far more widespread than owners really know. I am simply following it closely because I have $35K sunk into a loaded 07 vert [that fortunately is a warm weather driver]. Kudos to all owners and forum members who have b*tched to Ford about this. If it were not for them, Ford would still be in a state of denial. |
thanks to adnlyn
i want to than Adnyln for bringing this issue to my attention.
i went under the driver side of my car and didnt feel any moisture but now reading the post by mail906 i think i didnt go deep enough behind there. i will try again. thanks! |
Not for nothing maybe this should become a sticky (at least until it's fixed), I know most TSB oriented problems can be annoying but this is one of the more serious ones. Sure hope the 07 I ordered does not have this problem (my 06 sure didn't).
|
agreed on the point that this should be a sticky...

It should be part of the Warranty sub-forum we were supposed to get back. See here http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=54533
You should probably post there to let the mods know we still want that; I did. Mike |
i just want people to realize i didnt get the problem til 25,000 miles(that i knew of) so those of you that say you dot have it dont get too cockey. but atleast we know what to look for and now ford ia aware.

I posted there also. I haven't noticed any moisture in my passenger footwell carpet but, after several days of rain here, I have noticed a slightly musty smell inside the car. I will investigate more thoroughly when I get the chance.
