Vehicle has a catastrophic design flaw. If water enters the LED BLISS tail light assembly even in small amounts for anreason, including due to manufacturing defects, minor damage such as a crack, e treme wet weather, or wear and tear of seals, then numerous electrical failures occur of the entire warning system. This includes not only the tail lights, and blind spot backup and cross traffic systems, but catastrophic failure of all dashboard door and window controls. The vehicle cannot be easily unlocked including with remote, climate and accessories cannot be controlled. They vehicle can barely be operated and great expertise and expense required to return the vehicle to proper service. This has happened twice to this vehicle in 2022. Both times it was from minor damage to the taillight lens. Water entered the connectors for a network system which is critical to numerous vehicle safety and critical systems which are completely digital. The part required replacing is available only from a dealer as an OEM part and cost $500 plus labor. Research shows this is a widespread confusing problem, which renders high end models nearly inoperable with uncontrollable systems other than basic engine functions and subjecting consumers to great inconvenience and expense. The manufacturer does not appear to have offered recall services and only will repair or replace if the item fails under warranty. Under any interpretation this problem is a gross failure in engineering and safety. What other vehicles with a minor taillight problem have failure of a majority of systems? So many codes are thrown that the average technician and consumer must bear great expense to repair for diagnosis, and then replacement with extremely expensive parts only available from dealer.

All, I have a recall on door latches, but a cause maybe water getting in the doors, then freezing. You try to open and bending on rods occur. I have approx 2 gallons of water in door, and ford says clean out drain...when is a door supposed to get soaked and hold water inside? This can cause lots of problems in future. Look at you tube videos 1000 having the problem. So bad it's going under the floor. In the world of flooding a vehicle and totaling does this become the issue? Im afraid to look under my floor, because I will become very unprofessional. I'm a life long ford owner and looking for guidance please.. I called corperate ford from 1pm to 215 pm on 1/12/18 and get a recording they can't take call go to ford owner site and hang up. It's the 800 number everyone calls. Why im here.. Water gets in door when raining.

Windshield cowl panels leak rain water into top of the engine where the two cowl pieces meet in the middle. I suspect looking at other 2015 and 2016 f150 models they have or will have the issue of leaking water onto the engine. Besides possible corrosion or damage to engine, this could cause the engine to stall and maybe a safety problem.
