S550 2016 coupe: Found 5 water leaks into rear wheel wells.

I just got done sealing all the rain water leaks I found so I thought I'd share. At the bottom corners of the rear window there were small cracks letting water in on both sides. I had a window repair shop fix that. Water was still getting in but not as much. I took off the bumper skin and found that Ford had put stickers over holes that go into the truck and they were coming loose. There's 5 stickers in total but two of them have water that runs right over the stickers. I also found that there were cracks in the sealant over one of the seams on the drivers side that I resealed (picture attached). There's a good chance that water is sitting in peoples wheel wells and they don't even know it.

Oh Just to Be Clear I Was Not Ragging On Our Regulars! Just The Average 500+ Per Day Guests who Never Log In! Just in Case I Was Not Precise in my Comments!

It Just Gets Frustrating When I Read Some of the Old Threads and See The Massive Participation we Once Had!

I'm Grateful for Our Small But Loyal Band that Jump in None the Less when we get a New Member That Needs Help! Sometimes we still Click Like a Nascar Pit Crew!

Hopefully with some Persistence we can Expand our Regular Posters!
