GEN 2 Why does this thing have to be a *************?

Does Ford do a 1 year lease on Raptor?

many get traded in around the 1yr mark
owners frustrated w/service departments
dealers would jump at the chance to nail a 1 yr lease

I'm thinking a white 802A SCREW would do wonders for our marketing, but you guys are talking me out of it. LOL

Does Ford do a 1 year lease on Raptors?

Geeze, the truck comes with a warranty, buy the extended warranty if it helps you sleep. Sounds like it's time for you to put on your big boy pants.

1 year 15k miles. No squeaks or rattles. 0 issues.

I have a 2017 fully loaded, drove it cross country from Tennessee to Las Vegas towing a dual axle Uhaul trailer in the summer without a single problem. The Trailer Sway Control works great! The trailer backup steering control is also fantastic for us non Semi Drivers. My Raptor has had zero issues to date. It has 6,000 miles. The 2 things I do not like are the Timing Chain Rattle on startup, and the cheapo plastic oil pan and drain plug. The EB engine has amazing power and fuel economy too.

I got no issues. Thing is tight, no rattles or squeaks or anything.

If you are reading this thread and its talking you out of a raptor then I guess you don't have much experience with the internet. You have one or two folks with some legitimate issues and then add the trolls on and you get this. Happens with almost every vehicle out there, although this forum has its own kind of special trolls. Think short bus. Very special.

I don't like the Timing Chain Rattle on start-up.

worrisome & annoying...common ecoturd issue

 

[Clockton]

Some issues but to be expected.

Interior rattles are one thing I absolutely can't tolerate. Exterior rattles are ok, I can always close the windows. Which one does the Raptor suffer from.

It suffers from the engine rattling known as the cam phaser failure.

Can / will Ford fix it under warranty? I have 18 months left...

You don't consider the cam phaser rattle a problem? You realize that the rattling is the non-oiled cam phaser chewing itself up, and you will have a stretched timing chain very soon.
