Water issue
I somehow have water coming into the cab and can’t figure out where it’s coming in. Water is pooled up under the carpet in the footwell on the front passenger side and soaked through. I never noticed it until it started smelling musty in the truck. I removed the carpet and used a wet vac. It’s mostly wet in the front with water also in the cable tray below the sill.
I never noticed water coming down the pillar and don’t recall leaving a window open in the rain.
has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas where the water could be coming in? I might have to sit in the truck while my wife sprays water in various areas outside.
it’s a 2019 crew cab F350 SRW
thanks,
jim

definitely not antifreeze. I was wandering if it could be condensate from the A/C.

did you have wet carpet in back, too? I think mine is only in the front….or could it travel in the cable tray?

I purchased the elbow that's used in the TSB just in case I experience that problem.

That HVAC drain has been a problem for years
Use whatever you can to direct the water down and away
They used to leak on the #4 plug and cause a miss 97-03
Now they just soak the carpet
You put a used spark plug boot on there for 50 cents and be done with it
