There is no luck involved here, the issue is rare, but exacerbated online by those who get victimized by it. The problem is real, but the frequency is very low in the entire model line or Raptors. That doesn’t help anyone who actually has the problem, but the total failure rate is low. We’re talking about the most popular vehicle in the USA here so we tend to see only the Raptors affected.
The latest revision parts have exceedingly few repeat issues, but, previous iterations did have repeat issues sometimes.
Once the repair is completed, you’ll move on with life and resume enjoying life with a Raptor.
