Tailgate Alignment Issues

[jmill012]

All - new to the forum and a first time Raptor owner. Bought the truck site unseen from a dealer 2 hours away. They were awesome and even drove the truck to me for delivery. Upon arrival I noticed the tailgate looked to be misaligned and had various paint chips. The lower left (driver side corner) seems to run just a little when open and the right side bracket looks like it was moved based on the unpainted surface showing. I called the dealer and they promise it was not damaged and said it never moved once delivered.

So, questions, what would everyone do? Take it to a local dealer to see if they would fix it? Drive the 2 hours and ask the original dealer to fix? Find a reputable body shop to fix?

Thanks!

I had a similar issue when I bought mine. Take it to any dealer, it should be covered under warranty.

Thanks. I have an appointment with my local dealer Monday. They seemed unsurprised and willing to help.
