Does anybody here have a leaky sunroof in a 2015 or newer F-150? If so, how was it fixed?

Could just be the drains clogged? Can happen if you park under trees a lot or if it was under coated and they got carried away.


Knock on wood. So far ours is fine

Gary, there is a service message for those on 2015-2016 model years:

Some 2015-2016 F-150 SuperCrew vehicles equipped with the vista roof opening panel may exhibit a water leak from the roof opening panel area. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM) Section 501-17 for water leak diagnosis. If test results lead to replacement of roof opening panel glass install part number FL3Z-16500A18-E which has a revised seal. Use casual part 16500A18 and applicable labor operations in section 12 of the service labor time standards (SLTS) manual.

If the truck is still under base warranty, I'm thinking this would be covered.

Still under base warranty and been in the shop 3 times so far. Going in again Wednesday. So far they said the drain tube was disconnected and then the seam sealer on the roof panel by the windshield was cracked. The problem only started 3 months ago after 2 years of ownership. Thanks for the info!

If it makes you feel better, my Ram been in shop 6 times in 3 years for the same thing, and it's not even panoramic.

I wonder if the truck body has twisted for some reason and that's causing it?

Thankfully Ford stepped up to the plate and is replacing my entire Vista sunroof with the updated version. Thanks Ford!
