Ford Ranger water intrusion issue on both driver and passenger sides under troubleshooting on Ford Ranger

Problem overview

Some Ford Ranger owners report experiencing water intrusion issues on both the driver and passenger sides of their vehicles. Common problems include leaks from the windshield, particularly at the top corners, where gaps or cracks may allow water to enter the cabin. Additionally, damaged or worn door seals can lead to water seeping in, which can be identified by spraying water around the door while checking for leaks. Owners also note the importance of inspecting drain holes on the passenger side, as blocked or improperly located holes can prevent rainwater from exiting the vehicle effectively. Furthermore, damp floor mats and carpets on either side may indicate potential entry points for water. Lastly, improper drainage can cause water to pool inside the cabin, exacerbating the issue. Addressing these concerns promptly is crucial for preventing further damage.
