2024 AC Failure tracking thread
8/18/24 IT'S BEEN OVER 2 MONTHS SINCE I STARTED THIS LIST.
I am going to no longer update the list since it seems that dealers are receiving parts more quickly now.

How do I find the actual day it was built? Build date on the door says 4/24
2024 F-250 Lariat 7.3L
800 miles when AC went out
Waiting on compressor. Dealer said they have another new Super Duty in the shop for the same problem. The other day there were 6 dealers in the country with compressors in stock, but my dealer could not get any of them to sell one to them. Probably because they know they will need them for their own service department sooner rather than later.

2024 F250 Lariat 6.7L Crew
Build Date: 3/25/24
Purchased: 5/3/24
Mileage when AC went out: 940 miles
Date brought to service: 5/31
Parts arrived for repair: 6/14
Took truck home: 6/15
Had new compressor, TXV and desiccant bag installed. Tech noted metal shavings in system after refrigerant flush.
Has been blowing cold the past week and have put about 600 miles on it since picking up.
Good luck guys. It F-ing sucks Ford let this get out of hand and have/had us all waiting weeks for parts but I left my truck at service the whole time and insisted on COPIS and emergency tickets for those parts and they did eventually end up getting there.
Go to a solid dealer too and show them this and get the right parts ordered.
Seems like the ticket for most is the compressor and valve.
