Rear wheels locking up

[Deleted member 12951]

Powertrain is 5yr/60k miles

I don't go very far maybe a few feet. Tire drags and makes the burning out sound.



pushed in



I never get that far, its usually when I'm parked and put in drive.



Emergency brake is off. I'll prob be taking it in after Christmas. This should be covered under power train warranty? 100K? I have 42K

You should get Crystal involved when you take it in, she usually helps with warranty problems.

Brakes are not usually covered under the 5yr/60k powertrain warranty.

... I'll prob be taking it in after Christmas but wanted to see if anyone here had this issue before.

Hi fish_scales,

Definitely let me know how things go at the dealership; I'll be able to check out options to help once they've looked over your truck. I'd recommend speaking to the service manager about warranty coverage as they'll be in the best position to give you a definitive answer. I'll keep checking in here to see when you have any news.

Mine was locking when in reverse then freeing up ended up grenading the rear before ford could find the issue

update
the 4wd switch was bad and my truck was stuck in 4wd mode.
ford installed new switch.

I had this same problem, but a little more EXTREME. I called Galpin Ford (where we've had good service before), and they completely gave me the "Heisman". They won't take any appointments and the can't even look at the truck until SEPTEMBER. Mind you, I have the switch in hand. This is a 5-minute switch out! Now I'm FORCED to buy the part MYSELF.

This is our second Raptor and it's my wife's street machine. Never off-roaded, always in SoCal. This part is just two small, cheap, pieces of brittle plastic holding that switch in there.

Would be nice to work with Crystal on this... If you're out there Crystal, I'm sending out the bat signal....

Crystal is no longer active on the Forum. I'd take it to another dealer. Don't know whether or not its an easy install as I took mine to the dealer when I had this issue. If you bought the truck from that dealer (Gaplin) you could blow them up on yelp or something else passive aggressive. Mine was covered under warranty so it may be worth waiting till September. Wonder why they'd make you wait so long?
