ALL DOORS LEAKING AT THE DOOR SEAL RETAINERS AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REPAIR DUE TO POOR DESIGNED FLAW! ALL FORD CARS HAVING WATER CONDITIONS AND STILL ALLOWED TO SELL THIS DEFECTIVE CARS ! I AM A MASTER MECHANIC AND DIAGNOSED IT MY SELF ! THIS IS STRICTLY A FORD QUALITY ISSUE FOR ALL FORD EDGES OF ALL YEARS AND MOST LIKELY ALL THERE CARS HAVE A WATER ISSUE . AND IT IS MY EXPERIENCE THAT CAR DEALERS KNOW ABOUT IT AND DUE NOT ISSUE A REPAIR BECAUSE OF COST! IT IS A SAD DAY FOR AMERICAN PRODUCTS . FORUM CARS BUILT BETTER THAT THIS! BY MY EXPERIENCE
