i have a water leak leaking from the 3rd brake light(i'm guessing) or the back glass. its actually dripping from the rear center of the headliner which makes me think its the 3rd brake light seal. ideas?

thanks in advance ;)

I have the same issue. Mine looks like it's the gasket around the back window itself. It doesn't leak unless it's a big rain. It seems to sit there in the crevice between the black plastic surround aroung the back window and seeps in through the gasket and ends up puddling and then dripping right in the middle.

I'm not sure how to fix it...I assume you can replace that gasket...well someone can...window repair guy ??

Mine did that when it was new. Warranty took care of it though.

i'll check f-150 and post response
buddy has a upholestry/glass shop...he suggested the 3rd brake/back glass gaskets..

when it rains, it pours
:flaming: :mad: :( :crying: :bs

guess i should be happy it didn't start a fire :rolleyes:

My '97 F150 developed a leak at the bottom and top passenger side about two years into ownership, and warranty replaced it. Haven't had the problem yete with my L (knock on wood)
