  1. Noise in 4A and when below 30 degrees

    After 6 weeks in service my truck is fixed. They replaced steering components and more bearings (they didn't say where) but apparently wherever it was there was metal shavings that needed cleaned out as well. Still not exactly sure what the ultimate issue was, but the truck is no longer making...
  2. Noise in 4A and when below 30 degrees

    Apparently it wasn't the bearings either as it still makes the noise. So we're back to "coordinating" the next step through Ford's "hotline" (whatever that is). Over five weeks, no truck, no loaner, no concern on Ford's part about customer service. I had a 2015 XLT with 60,000 miles with the...
  3. Noise in 4A and when below 30 degrees

    Just to follow-up. I took the truck in and the new service manager could hear the noise and they replaced a 4WD actuator. Noise was still there, maybe worse. Scheduled another appointment and the 2nd time around they took apart the trans-axle and there are three bearings that are bad. So, I'm...
  4. Noise in 4A and when below 30 degrees

    I have two noises on my 2021 F150 Eco-Boost Lariat. In cold weather (below 30 degrees) I can hear a rhythmic ticking or rubbing sound (sounds similar to brakes grinding - but it's not that) coming from the front end when in regular drive mode. Engine noise will mask most of it but it can be...
  5. Dash cam options?

    I've been researching dash cams and currently thinking about the NextBase 522GW. Does anyone have that and does it work well with the mirror tap on this link? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088P4VFQ7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_M845C2HGC3DXGB294RSK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 If no one is using that camera...
  6. Train Carrying New F-150s Derails!

    Sorry you were caught up in that.
  7. Train Carrying New F-150s Derails!

    How long will it take before Ford provides a list of VIN's that were on that train? Surely some people are going to get some bad news. I suspect I may be one of them.
  8. Kansas City plant are they up and running

    If you can get a rail car number from your dealer, there is a phone number you can call at Norfolk Southern to track it. You don’t even need to talk to anyone. I’m waiting on my dealer to provide the rail car number.
  9. Kansas City plant are they up and running

    Palsapp shows my truck shipped from Kansas City, MO and was delivered to Birminghan, MO today. Is there anything else available to track it from there?
  10. 6/28 build week thread ? ?

    6/30 Blend 7/2 Production = still not showing built 7/30 ETA Start Date 8/5 ETA End Date In Production has no check mark and the order is not marked as built which I assume means it's waiting on wheel well liners.
  11. 6/28 build week thread ? ?

    Order Date: 04-15-21 Blend Date: 06-30-21 Prod Date: 07-02-21 ETA Date: 08-05-21 Updated today! I'm supposed to get wheel well liners so I'm not sure how that plays into this ...
  12. 6/28 build week thread ? ?

    My 6/30 blend still hasn't moved off "In Production" and I have no other dates except the order date. My Ford Pass app did add two new functions (Ambient Lighting and Pro Power Onboard) within the past two days, but I don't know if that means anything.
  13. BedRug Truck Bed Mats and Liners Install and Review

    Removing the box link brackets and tie downs and installing them after the bed rug will help secure the sides - I'm sure that's in the video.
  14. 6/28 build week thread ? ?

    I originally had a 5/24 build week. I don't know when it changed because my dealer would say "no change, still end of the month" rather than just tell me the date. Some where along the line "end of the month" became June 30th rather than May 24th. I checked the tracker every day to see if time...
  15. KC Backlog

    I'm trying to gauge what the backlog will be when KC begins production the week of 6/14 (if they do). I ordered my truck on 4/15 and received a VIN on 4/16 with a build week of 5/24. The plant shut down the ensuing Monday 4/19. Who has build weeks planned in April and May in KC, what are the...
