Some Ford Escape owners report experiencing roof leaks near the sunglasses holder and right side grab handle, which may be attributed to several potential issues. These include problems with the sunroof seal, where wear or damage could allow water to seep through. Additionally, leaks might occur around the roof rack or roof rails if these areas are not properly sealed. Water pooling near the grab handle could indicate a clogged drain hole, particularly during or after heavy rain, necessitating an unclogging for proper drainage. Another possible source of the leak is the windshield seal, which should be inspected for gaps or damage. If these DIY solutions do not resolve the issue, some owners find it necessary to seek a professional inspection at a Ford dealership or with a qualified mechanic to accurately identify the leak's source and recommend appropriate repairs.
