Left the truck outside overnight. Rained pretty heavy. Went to get in the drivers side and noticed water have migrated into the cabin and onto the mate. See photos. Has anyone else experienced this?

do a search Several members have had leak problems. Mostly related to clogs in the roof drains, open seams in the firewall door area, and issues with drain lines that run down the a pillars on both sides.

Been there, done that. The search feature of this forum is not very good. Someone one may have posted something, but it is most likely buried in a thread somewhere, thus I posted my concern.

I had a very leaky pano roof. Water filled both floor mats and came out the phone mic on the headliner. There was a misalignment with the sunroof tracks. The dealer hired a 3rd party to run leak down tests and resolved the issue with the tracks themselves. The 3rd party tested once completed and I’ve had no issues since. The location of the water appears to be drain tube related on your truck.

I've been having the same problem but I don't even have a sunroof. So unsure but I've definitely had water on my driver side floor mats when the truck has been left in the rain over night.

Read this F150forum.com thread: https://www.f150forum.com/f118/water-leak-cowl-seam-474781/?ispreloading=1

It is the same problem that exists on our trucks. Water is making it's way into the cabin via the firewall cowl or the body seams at the top and bottom of the windshields. This is why even on trucks without sunroofs, water still finds it way into the cabin.

Well I dropped the truck off today to get in Monday morning.

Took a lot of pics and video looking around the cab, removing my stuff, etc. I'll probably make a thread for informational purposes after talking to dealer Service rep on Monday.
