Water leak TSB

[1Fast05Turbo]

While I was at my local ford dealer, my mechanic friend was looking in the computer for any manual transmission related TSBs and I saw the water leak TSB.

Some of you don't drive in the rain, and maybe you should to make sure your stang is ok. Both of my stangs leak and the water ends up in the same place, front passenger side floorboard and the box in the kick panel. When the 05 gets wet, the door locks start acting up.

I don't remember the number but it was just released. Maybe Casper can post it for us.

Don't know if this helps, but I had same problem and the dealership found that my cowl seal was not correctly installed at the factory. It would never leak say washing the car, but as soon as a rain storm would come I would have a wet floorboard. The body shop found it by doing some sort of water pressure test???

Where does it enter the car from? I've never had a problem in the rain.

Mine entered @ the base of the windshield in the center

Sweet Jesus! My 05 GT Vert has been leaking (sometimes in the rain, never when I wash it) and the dealship replaced everything related to the other TSB's that pointed to the A/C causing the leak. I owe you a beer~!

Mine was leaking through a bad window seal on the pillar. When the window closed, it was pinching the weatherstrip open. Take a look there too.

Followed the hotspot to ATTACH 1444 and got attachment not found.Can you reattach it or cut and paste it. Dealer claimed water leak caused buy aftermarket accessory but now I see many 05-07 mustang owners have the leak. Replaced the SJB and did NOT INHALE/EXHALE data from old SJB causing DRLs to COME ON and keyfobstoi NOT WORK. What is the TSB NUMBER? If not here WHERE can I find it?BIGHANK

So what does this TSB mean to those of us who are out of warranty? (I've got an early build 05.)

Basically, we're SOL?

No...you can PAY them to fix it

 

[1Fast05Turbo]

By reading the TSB, it doesn't seem to be to difficult to locate the leak and fix it yourself.

 

[Big Top Gt]

I'm stupid. Can someone take pictures of the exact areas they're saying might leak?

Should I just run a bead of RTV Black along the base fo the window?

My 05 was leaking from a grommet that had wires running in right above the brain. Every time it would dew hard or rain electrical gremlins would show their faces. Ex.: CD player would only work with clutch pushed in. I used about a half a (large) tube of RTV to seal the grommet and the wires that came in. No more prob. Sux being outta warranty.
