A bit of a ran to start off, the dealer called me last week and told me to come pick up my truck while they were waiting on Ford engineering to get back to them on the SCCM DTC they were unable to solve, for the second time the truck was in worse shape when I picked it up than when I dropped it off. Interior panels were not fully reattched, generally not reinstalled properly, or missing retaining clips. They broke the connector on the washer nozzle hose when they replaced the cowl panel on the first visit and decided zip ties were the proper fix on my return visit and tried to gaslight me by saying they only added zip ties to make sure it doesn't come loose again and nothing was broken even though you could clearly see broken plastic on the connector and comparing it to another truck on the lot mine is missing both plastic retaining clips. I am not seeing the SCCM DTC so not sure if that cleared on it's own after driving for a bit and the panel fitment issues and nozzle issue I can fix myself for about $20 and a few minutes of time. I am trying to avoid going back to the dealer at this point as they have proven incapable of fixing an issue without causing more problems and this is supposedly their best tech that has been there since they opened over 40 years ago.

Now the issue I need some help with...

The final issue (I am aware of) is the parking sensors are no longer working. I have verified the dash button is on and they are on in the features menu of sync, I am not seeing any errors for the sensors. Does anyone have any ideas on what else to check? They worked before I took it in for the second visit for sure, now nothing. I have gotten the truck within an inch or two of a concrete wall and no warning from the sensors. The only DTCs I see reporting on the truck since I picked it up are both in the TRM module with code U0140:87:0A and U0143:87:08 which don't seem to be related to the parking sensors since it's the trailer control module but maybe theres some weirdness there?

Edit 1: I checked all the values in forscan against the values from this thread on adding them to a truck and they all match so I don't think any of the as built data got messed up.

Edit 2: With the help of Jesse we were able to get things working properly. Ended just needing to run an IPMA reset in forscan.
