Moisture in the 3rd brake light, paint chips, windshield quality
A few questions for everyone. 42k miles, paint chips on hood, fenders, front bumpers. a couple on the driver’s side A pillar, one all the way back by the drivers side rear wheel well. My question is, is this just a me thing? City and highway driving, avoid gravel when I can.
Also on its second (aftermarket) windshield due to a rock hitting it. Originally would’ve been repairable, spread to the size of a golf ball, then halfway across the windshield. Is this a common issue as well?
Finally, 3rd brake light. Noticed moisture in it somehow. I have done nothing with it. This was also an issue I dealt with multiple times on my 2007 Sport Trac, so I am curious if others have experienced this and wth Ford is doing with their 3rd brake light development team lol.
I had already painted over several paint chips and today I did a full detail, clay bar, wax, the whole nine yards. Noticed numerous all around the truck.
