Default 2002 explorer leaking water

I noticed the dome light near the windshield is filling up with water when
it rains. There is a small seperation at the upper windshield seal but it
is not near the dome light. Any theories on this? Would this be a
warranty issue? Thanks dave

If it's still under warranty, I would think so.
Have you contacted a dealer to find out?

Dont know if this is your problem but it seems my windshield wasn't sealed
correctly from the factory. I had a nasty draft in the bottom right hand
corner, so bad I had to runthe heat all the time. Svc dept found an 8"
piece of the seal missing. I bought this used, so who knows what
happened.

On another note, they also did a software update for the transmission,
which shifted really clunkily. Definitely improved the shifts.

One possible way to check whether it has been replaced is to look for
the name in the lower corner. Ford makes their own glass under the
Carlite name. If the name is PPG or LOF then it is a replacement.
