Angry It's in the shop!!!

Had my FX4 SC two weeks and it is at the dealer. Ran it through one of those high pressure spray car washes and I got drenched . Water was coming in between the upper driver's door and the body. The dealer looked at it and everything seemed to be fine. They gave me an explorer to drive while they check it out. If anyone else had this problem I would appreciate letting me know what the fix was. THANKS

I went through a touchless high pressure wash once and didn't have any leaks. It's been too cold here to take it through again. Will let you know if I have any problems.

Hey Fishead, did you notice any wind noise before or after you saw the waterfalls?

Same thing happened to me, but- oh, wait a minute. My driver's door window was down at the time. Yeah, that was probably it. Never mind...........

Dealer called today and they found the problem. They took it to a place that has a rain machine and found the rubber molding was bad. They are goin' to express the molding in tomorrow and will be able to pick it up tomorrow afternoon. They also gave me a 2004 explorer loaner. I love my dealer , and I really love my TRUCK.
