Just above the rearview Mirror assembly where the two port holes come together, there is daylight coming through. I found this after going through a car wash. Looks like the MIC recall is just not cosmetic as we are told.

Maybe an arrow or something to designate? I don’t see anything in the pic. Did water come in at the car wash? If you can see daylight then most likely you’d already have water intrusion. 🤷‍♂️

Ford practicing the “how to say it’s a design problem without actually saying it’s a design problem”

Mic can be damaged by rain. Rain ffs.

Hope you don't live in a rainy area like me, that would sure suck waiting until Oct or Nov for new top , well you can use what we have a need for up here in the PNW , lots of silicone.

I think Ford lists this as a “day time map light” feature of the MIC top.

<insert joke about waxing here>

I laughed when I saw those words in their email... Cosmetic, not functional issues... Ha!
The line that got me was "When exposed to extreme water and humidity." Press release b.s. to downplay the reality of the situation. But Ford knows most of the press won't call them on it as they haven't read the first hand customer experiences posted on the forum.

Try a vacuum?

I may be wrong but that looks like a piece of debris stuck to the fuzzy headliner. No? Can you see that on the outside of the top???
He said he went through a car wash. I’m assuming that means water came in through it. Likely not a piece of debris stuck to it.
