NHTSA Complaint #10447777 — 2010 FORD F-150

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. FIRST TIME FORD OWNER BUT NEVER AGAIN. I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO EXPLAIN ALL THE TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE ISSUES. *TR
