Yep! I’m figuring it’ll be in the shop at least a week so I’ll head down Monday first thing with the printed list of items and knock as many out as possible while its there.
What’s sad is you should not have to take a list and do Ford’s job. But it seems to be a sign of the times. Like was said, it doesn’t matter what it is there have been some serious quality issues on so many items theses days. Nothing is more frustrating than having something new crap out, but I hope the best for you on this issue and may it be your last for a long time.

I guess I wasn’t so lucky after all…

I was driving back home after taking delivery from dealership. Smoke billowing behind me. Pulled off interstate and trans shifted in P in middle of intersection.

Trans oil everywhere. Only 133 miles. On my 40th bday weekend. Ford better escalate this quickly. Super disappointed.

I think am gona change my mind and get the TRX. I love the ford raptor and everyone is talking highly about it but I noticed that anyone who get their new raptor complains about either engine,shocks or transmission. **** the raptor. am so mad about what happen to this gentleman
Am sorry that this is happening to you man but like you said ford better do something about it ASAP
And some of us don’t complain about anything and have had no issues but hey, do you! Don’t use this lame excuse to buy a Dodge. Change your mind…hell, you prolly already settled for one and trying to justify it.

You can always get a Toyota Land Cruiser. Then you don’t have to worry about UAW incompetence.

I drove G wagon and c300 however there is nothing wrong driving a Toyota or owning one.
But spending almost 100k on a car that’s gona break in 133 miles. Well no sir I can say f**ck American cars.

I honestly paid a deposit and I have been waiting since December the 15th and based on youtoub videos everyone is talking highly about the raptors but check the forum your self. The majority of the gen 3 owners are having big issues. I do wana own one but if it is going g to give hard time then hell no am not paying that much so I can have it sit a mechanic shop or a stealership. I advice ppl
To reconsider and please don’t hold it against me it’s a very friendly conversation.

Anyone looking to get into a Jen Tres?
