Can't tell by looking at your profile.............

Yeah, I don't usually fill them out very much.  I'm in the same area.

I wonder if anyone has answered with no leak without actually looking back there for any signs. When I was dealing with the brake issue I ran across the rear window leak thread. I said to myself, I'm glad mine isn't leaking. But then I went and looked around and sure enough mine was also leaking and I didn't really even know it.

You don't look, you feel. Seat cushions up and press a piece of paper toweling against the top surface of the rug...........comes up bone dry = no leak.

Fortunately or unfortunately for me when I checked it was raining pretty hard and it was on the top of my rear seat by the headrest. no feeling necessary. I did feel around after that and luckily the floor and seat cushions were dry.

Glad to see everyone voting on this one.  I do wish that if someone voted "no leak" and later experienced one they could change their answer.

So I wonder if the reduced occurrence of 10% on the 2020's is due to the problem being fixed somewhere along the line, or just due to the fact that they haven't been owned long enough.

I check mine every time I wash the truck or drive in the rain. My 19 with slider is leak free so far.

 

I've also purposely flooded the spoiler/rear window with water when rinsing the truck to try and get it to leak. :thumbs:

Good question, wondered that myself.

 

Currently the 2019's are around 70% of those polled, 2020's are 15.4% of those polled.

I didn’t have the option on the first poll question to answer “Yes my truck had the rear cab window leak- resolved by the dealer however I am not satisfied with the results” 
 

Such as the dealership using seam sealer to cover the 2 spots they are aware of fracturing/ cracking and making small holes allowing water to enter the cab. Even after a discussion was had that I did not want this to happen.

I'm using the Tapatalk app to view this forum and there is no poll showing. Is this something you have to go to the website for or am I missing something?

I logged on to the website. I feel like I was not properly counted. Since my 19 and 20 both leaked and I could only submit one vote!!

I have seen several polls on the Facebook group as well that seemed to be in the 30% range but really hard to tell how genuine some of the votes were by people with no leak sick of hearing people with leaks complaining about their leak

    • I was the GM of a Lincoln Mercury dealership back in the 80's. The service lot was always full with "broken" ones. Plenty of transmissions, power windows and a/c repairs. The only one I'd consider owning would be the Marauder at this point and it certainly wouldn't be a daily driver.  My 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate is my "Lincoln Town Car" in my retirement. I want all the "stuff". Big infotainment screens, one touch power windows, Supercruise (I won't buy another vehicle without it), hands free pretty much everything. I'm going to swap my current truck for a 2027 Yukon Denali Ultimate so I can have the air suspension and surround vision recording along with all the other "stuff". 
    • Yep mine is on backorder also.
    • The Denali Ultimate's grille is tinted, but the "regular' Denali has a bright chrome grille like the current models.
    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
