Thanks for the info. Would you say the 4wd system is "delicate" in a sense that it could develop issues again for no real reason even though yours is fixed and working now? As mentioned earlier, I don't do offroading and here in Houston, TX, I don't see myself probably ever needing to engage...

Did your dealer at least explain to you what the issue was and what they did to fix your 4x4 issue? I don't off-road my Raptor so I very likely will never use the 4x4 function. However I would still like that to be fully functional regardless. Before I bought my Raptor a couple of months...

Brother, I truly was not insinuating you were bragging or anything of the sort. God has blessed you with your means to have what you have. Nothing wrong with that. I was just impressed with the list of rides under your ownership. David

Hey brother. I just now read your list of rides in your sig. Money clearly is not an issue for you. Good for you.

Pardon the side question here, but I'm considering purchasing a 5-star tuner for my 2013 SCREW. Would a tuner void my extended warranty in any way? Thanks David

Yeah the fine print in the extended warranty does not cover light assemblies. Ford Service is an actual Ford rep that can escalate your issues/concerns. The guys at the service dept of your dealership are employees of a privately owned dealership. They can decide whether they will warranty...

I just got mine replaced today but I had to call Ford Customer Service to cover it. My service rep would not cover the third brake light replacement under my extended warranty. I would recommend calling Ford Service: (800) 392-3673 David

Well that's good to hear at the very least you didn't have complete LED burnout like I did. Was it the same LED that burned out both times?

Hey Brother not sure if you've already gotten your rear defroster issue resolved. I just got mine replaced and picked up today on my 2013 SCREW. I called last week and just told them over the phone about the rear defroster light not coming on and they told me to just bring it in on an...

Hmm strange. So in your cases, not all of the LEDS burned out? So you still had 2 working LEDS for running and brake lights? David

Just curious, how bad did the inner housing leak get on your previous brake lights when they went out?

So I'm assuming the replacement housings you've received over the course of ownership were all "improved". Your brake lights still got destroyed by water leakage even with the reinforced washer seals? How much if an improvement is the design now compared to the old? Honest question.

Hmm. Oops I sealed all around. So I should go cut out the seal along the lower edge tomorrow huh? By the way, after I picked it up today, I drove around town and it rained a bit during. Low and behold I decided to take look and I noticed some moisture bubbles ALREADY around the inner...

I just picked up today. I had to get Ford customer service to step in and cover the third brake light replacement. The dealer would only replace the rear window defroster under the extended warranty. I sealed around the outer edge with silicone today and I hope that'll do it...

Does this latest update fix the iPhone 6/7 incoming call issue? I was told by a SYNC rep that the latest IOS firmware were not compatible but perhaps the latest SYNC updates bridges the gap?

Saw this today in the I-10/Eldridge area in Houston. Not the best pic I know.

Sounds wonderful. So the Ford Customer Service "circumvented" your service dealership's stance on the housing not covered by warranty? David

Well I'm at the service dept now. I had called Ford Customer Service earlier today and the rep heard my story and called my service dealership. My service rep at the dealership just now told me that he ran the replacement part number in his system and it came back noted as "not covered under...

Great I'll call Ford Customer service about the 3rd Brake Light. On a side note, my raptor is at the service dept now about to get a warranty replacement of the rear window pane for the rear defroster repair. I asked the rep earlier whether he's heard of issues of cracking and he didn't...

Yep, they told me if I were to get it fixed through them it would be $500+ + labor which would be a total of $700+ (I don't remember exact figures). So what you're saying is I should call Ford customer service to file a claim? Because to me that's ridiculous. It's a safety feature on the...

Hi all, I've read/heard about the OEM Third LED Brakelight having issues because of water leakage into the housing. I have no idea if that happened with my Raptor as I took ownership of it a little over 2 months ago and I have to assume it was not working since. Long story short, I...

Very informative, thanks. So basically rules state all stock as a requirement (barring some well clearance and lift mods). Where can I see results of a Raptor stock race against others? David

Has there ever been a desert race set up for Stock production trucks? or did I kinda just answered my own question because there has not been a stock production truck to rival the Raptor, therefore the race wasn't possible? lol David

Gotcha. Thanks for the clarification. How come the Baja Raptor didn't fare well against the Modded Tundra? It sounds a bit underwhelming and surprising that on a "modded" playing field the Tundra won. David

First off, please forgive me for being a newb with dumb questions. I love my Raptor and feel (in my opinion) it's the best truck to get, even though mine is a pavement queen. I've looked on Youtube and Googled "Ford Raptor Baja 1000" and the majority of the searches lead to either the gen 2...
