Water leaks on passenger side floor and panel area whenever there’s even a moderate amount of rain. Trouble finding the source of leak. ---

If you have recently replaced the bulbs in the third brake light or cargo light, I’d check there, common problem with Fords. Might need a new gasket. ---

You need to check the Drain line from the HVAC case.

Try spraying water into the owl vent with a hose. If water shows up inside, you know where to start looking.
