I saw some posts about water in the 3rd brake light on the backs of cabs. I have a 2013 FX4 SCREW and when I wash it I notice that there is soap and water in the brake lights. I have not closely inspected the 3rd brake light, but notice it pretty easily on the regular brake lights.
Curious if anyone else has seen this issue, and if there are replacement gaskets or something that can be done. I hate to put sealant in there if I don't know what specifically to use, and make it end up looking like garbage.

I previously had a 2004 F-150 XLT and it did have some water that would get into the 3rd brake light, and I ended up replacing it. But with this being a much newer truck, I was suprised to see it after the first wash or 2.

Thanks for any feedback.

Is it still under warranty? Take it to Ford if so. If not, take it off and inspect for any cracks
