I wanted to see if anyone else is getting some rain/water inside of the truck after a really hard rain?
It's only happened after a few hard downpours and I've only noticed it when I go into the truck just after. I felt the parking brake and the water is def coming down from it but I don't know where it originates from?
Has anyone had this issue and or know where it is coming from?

You have the sunroof? If so sounds like drain tube has come undone. There are some internet how too’s on the fix, or you can take it to dealer

I had the same issue on my 18', it ended up being a broken clip on the passenger side air extractor in the back wall of the cab. dealer had the truck for a few days, bed had to be removed to replace part.

Coincidently I noticed a puddle of water in my 19 drivers side matt after a hard rain yesterday. Keep us updated on what you figure out. Not sure when it is going to rain again here!
Interesting for sure!
It's not a lot of water but its enough to make me a bit nervous especially after reading the issues some have had with their sunroofs.

I have also noticed that after a rain there will be considerable moisture in side my ‘18. Not so much full puddles and there heavy condensation on the interior glass surfaces.

here, on frf
you need to pull the plastic trim under the floormat and check to see if the carpet is wet. a small amount there doesnt mean it hasnt gone elsewhere. if the carpet is wet mold and mildew will set in and the truck will always stink. i have had 2 scenarios of this problem. first one is a manufacturer error. the moonroof leaks and water gets inside. i had one of my guys spray the truck with a hose while i sat inside and pulled the headliner down around the moonroof and waited until i saw water. thats a dealer fix. take it back to them and have them repair it along with any subsequent water damage. the second one is that when some shops install equipment, instead of going through a rubber gromet, they push the gromet through and leave it loose. this will usually be on the drivers side since its easiest to access there. so if you have had any aftermarket work done, thats the place to check. make sure the gromet is sealed up properly.
