Cool Defective bed

I was waiting for my 2013 to arrive while your thread was going on, I didn't see the issue on any of the 2013 SDs on the lot.

(Also, as far as I know.. everyone with a 250-550 has an SD from the kentucky plant.. Only the 650/750 is made in Mexico)

I just bought a 2015 F250 FX4 crew cab. After a couple of weeks of driving I noticed that the bed looked uneven with the cab. The top side of the bed next to the cab is even on the passenger side and 7/8" in on the driver side. The funny thing is both bottom sides are even. I called Ford and after escalating the case, I was told that Ford allows for a 1" tolerance on the manufacturing of body parts. Does that sound like B.S. or what? I called back and asked for documentation from engineering supporting his statement and now I am getting no response. I have a friend in the auto industry who is helping me with this and he said that their are Lemon Laws regarding new car body defects and that this falls in line with that. I will post the out come.

If anyone is having the same problem, let me know email me at jrthb1@yahoo.com

If your saying the bed is narrower than the back of cab,even on pass. Side and sticks in on drivers side. Mine does the same thing. Probably normanl, is it right? No, but normal.
