My dealer is still holding 19’s.


Congrats! Glad you got your truck!

Tailgate vs Carpet

Like others,
I lost the tailgate recall, but I gained a carpet recall in my Ford Pass app.
The recall folks are having a field day !!
This is some crazy S___t !!!!
I still have the "too bright" lights thing going as well.
Who knows how all this will turn out !

The carpet one isn't an actual recall, it's an FSA like the freezing door locks.

Breaking news

Update:
I just ran my BIN on Ford Owner, and it came up with 2 recalls, and an FSA.
Recalls are Lights, and Tailgate.
FSA is Carpet & Insulation.
There is no detailed description of the carpet thing.

It comes up as a recall for me on fordpass, for some reason I can't get in to Ford owner, it just sits and spins or kick me out.

It doesnt even show on my FordPass. Ford Owner site sucks, I was having issues then finally got it to load the page. It shows 2 recalls for me, tailgate and LEDs, and 2 FSA, Carpet and Door locks.

Had my truck already scheduled for work in Yuma, AZ and they just got the parts in today for the tailgate recall. Here's a picture of that section of the worksheet.

Bill Alexander Ford. I dealt with Nick who said they have 20 kits on order and I was just lucky to get one of the two that came in on Monday. I think the owner got the other!
