Yes, I would...and I did. Luckily, I got into my Ford dealer quickly and had the axle replaced under warranty. I'm not sure why some are able to get it done quickly and others not. But even if I hadn't had it replaced, I wouldn't have worried about it much based on everything I read.

Pretty sure this was the same message my wife sent to her besties 3 weeks after she married me. Sorry babe...too late to return me for a better looking guy. :teehee:
Anyone who buys a Lightning to tow a large boat for more than 50ish miles didn't do their research and deserves to be stranded at the side of the road. :rolleyes: :teehee:
Thanks for that tip. The auto start-stop is the worst invention ever! I just bought this from Amazon and it came same-day delivery. Installation was simple and works as advertised. Best $100 I've spent recently. :thumbsup:
I just switched from a Lightning to an ICE F-150 due to my Lightning being totaled in June. My daily commute is 80-90 miles. I always charged at home and I barely noticed an increase in my power bill. I really like my new F-150, but I loved my Lightning! I cry a little bit every 10 days or so...
Took mine in a week ago for pics and whatever they needed to do to order parts. I was notified that parts came in and had my appointment today to install the new axles. They said it was a 6 hour job. Took it in at 9:00 and got it delivered back to my home at 5:30. Pulled the center caps off to...
I actually have an appointment tomorrow to switch out the stock Scorpions to the Michelin Defender LTX M/S (20"). My truck is my daily commuter for my 80 mi round-trip to work. I want a quiet highway tire with better life and everything I've read says the Defenders are the way to go. If...
Had my service appointment today. Valet picked up the truck in the morning and returned it in the afternoon with the service invoice showing that that axles had been replaced. I popped off the center cap to confirm. Nope! Same bolt. :lying:
I immediately called the Service Advisor. He...
Interesting that you got it done in one service appointment. From other comments it sounds like it can take one appointment for a photo, then wait weeks or months for parts, or no parts until October. Seems like a crap shoot depending on the dealer 🤷♂️
Mine is a used 2024 XLT with 10K miles on it that I just bought to replace my totaled Lightning. One of the main reasons I bought this particular truck was that it was optioned with the Max Tow Rear Axle and the Tow Haul package! I guess I shoulda come here first and done more research...
Just bought a gently used 2024 XLT EB 3.5L 302A with 10K miles to replace my totaled Lightning. It was a trade-in to a Chevy dealer, so I haven't had it in to a Ford dealer for any service yet. I think it's equipped with Lane Centering vs just Lane Keeping (it shows up as a selection under...
