Can you guys check above the little plastic piece behind the rear doors on your trucks and see if you have a similar problem. Im not sure if its a paint run or just the way the aluminum is bent. Think its worth saying something?

FYI: I saw another thread with pics of the channel on the roof that looked similar.
Looked like a sealer between panels that's filled with something soft that hardens up that then gets painted over. Not sure if that's what your seeing as well.

I actually just saw that. Im pretty sure this is aluminum or a paint run. Im not a bitchy person, but I just want it right.

Has anyone noticed this on theirs? I’ve got to send an email to the dealer today, but wasn’t sure if I should include this on the list.

I specifically looked on my truck on my way home last night and it does not have anything similar

My truck is at the dealer now for the first time with a list of issues to correct. This was one of the issues, but the service manager almost immediately said that it was the aluminum. I’m torn because it’s somewhat hidden, and how much do I want to mess with the factory paint job….we’ll they put me in a brand new loaner f150 and when I got home I noticed that truck didn’t have the issues, so no I’m certain mine is a paint run….would you have them fix or leave alone as it’s not real noticeable? Also any of you crew cab guys have similar issues?
