Hey @Ford Motor Company bought a 2022 F-150 Tremor that I love! I've had it two months and now its broke down and the part is apparently backordered with no date. I know parts and everything are tough right now but how can there be no inventory reserved at least for warranty issues? Have a $71,000 truck paying $1,100/month that I can't drive and have no date when I can. Need my truck for work. This is great........

I don't know the exact part but something that controls a bunch of electronics and the part is above the headliner towards the rear. They took all the trim apart and the headliner down and then said the part failed and it's backordered. The keys to the truck wouldn't work and a bunch sensor faults.

I'd say lemon law after being out of service for 30 plus days, but that does not put in a replacement truck. Maybe they would make the payments for you while the truck is out of service with the backordered part?

i know other manufacturers if you call them becauseof a life changing event and can’t make payments, they will defer those payments to the back end of your lease/finance… not insulting that you can’t make a payment, but at least May be an option as it can be months waiting. Hell took nearly 2 weeks to get a Clip my dealer broke for a harness during the insulation recall… a CLiP!! Hahaha and the truck had to sit at the shop

You describe what I think is the TCU module. I could be wrong, of course. But if it is the TCU I didn't think even a dead one would cripple the truck from running.

In the 5 months since I got my truck, it's been in my driveway 2 of the 5, in the Dealership's Service Department 3 of the 5.

Everything is on "back order". Once they finally got the parts my truck was fixed in 2-days.

That is correct. It will run if I can get them to put it all back together but they are hesitant to do that. There is so much stuff taken apart. Supposedly the part will be here this week.
