A Pro tailgate(swing door) trim piece is missing a push rivet.

[aviator]

I have a '24 with the pro access tailgate and 2 of my push rivets have gone missing. I'm having a heck of time finding the part # as many ford sites list the same push rivet/pin as the same part. They are definitely not the same.

If it's any consolation ... I am missing three of them and one of the end caps wants to exit the scene so I have some duct tape holding it on ... my biggest issue with Ford, the basics are solid but the extras (or even add on's) seem to be done quick and cheap.

Warranty, make it their problem.

I am doing that tomorrow during oil change. That and the second air dam failure in 2 months. I made them replace FIVE of them on my '23 ... I am going to let this one go and just remove the thing, it takes five hours to replace and I have better things to do with my time. Dealer admits that the air dams fail on almost all of the F150s ...says get extended warranty for transmission ... but that everything else is pretty solid. Dealer also says the late '24s and all of the '25s seem to be much better than anything '20 to early '24 (covid time).

I share your pain, the Air dam's are all failing on the company trucks. Our shop guy has a full time job running the trucks to the dealer and swapping them out for the next one to fix. I have 3 Invoice on my desk right now for trucks being warrantied all 3 had air dams.

I probably will at an oil change. Just hoping I could get it done sooner and was hoping to have extra on hand. It seems this a common problem but no one knows the part #. Others are saying dealers are just throwing the old style in there since they usually have a bunch laying around.

I had a couple come undone from Linex when my truck was new. When I got my first oil change the parts guy took me back in the service bay and gave me a hand full from one of the mechanics tool boxes.

Anyone find a correct part number for these yet? Went to my dealer a few months ago and they had no idea. The only part number they had was the Wrong Rivet pic.
