Take your rim to a local dealer and see if it can be repaired. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Other than the article you linked to, I am not seeing any other press reports indica that the F150 Lightning is going back into production. Hopefully, someone can corroborate (like maybe Ford Authority) or provide solid evidence that the story is false.

In a worse case scenario, would the dealer not have access the as built file, or would it be what was transmitted by the truck to Ford? I guess the question is whether Ford maintains both the original factory settings for all modules and the current. The reason for my question is the service...

Just received my recall letter telling me that the parts were in!

Have you checked to see if your ventilated drivers seat has come on? Mine has come on randomly when I start the truck and it takes me about 30 seconds t9 figure out what the noise is.

Depending on the state, diminished value may not be available if your carrier is making the repair - even if the accident is not your fault. I ran into that issue a few years back where the at fault driver‘s insurance carrier denied the claim due to an uncooperative driver.

Take it to the dealer - especially if you are under warranty.

Great, because the sun has done a number on mine and is now self destucting. Thank you Brian!

Depends on your insurance carrier and your state. Because my truck is a 2022, they will insist on aftermarket glass or require me to pay the difference.

I agree that there is nothing compelling with the 25 Lariat over the 22 Lariat. and, even if the vehicle features were switched, with the 25 having the 22’s features and vice versa, I still don’t think a trade would make sense. As indicated in a thread above, I will use the car payment paydown...

I have found very little in the 25 to be compelling and might have been interested in the Flash to get rid of the sunroof - but even there I would have to drop to a smaller battery which is a hard no. Right now, we have two EVs (Lightning and Volvo EX90) and a Subaru Outback. The Lightning has...

Was at a Ford dealer yesterday “gassing“ up my 2022 Lariat Lightning ER. The truck has 27,200 miles on it. Color is Ice Blue Silver. GSM kept bugging me that he wanted to buy my truck even though I told him repeatedly that it was not for sale. Truck is in excellent condition. Dealer offered...

The ac deodorizing and alignment should be as needed services. I think Ford has the cabin filter on a schedule if I recall correctly.

My recollection is that the seat has to come out to replace the seat bottom seat cover. Mine was done under warranty twice as the first replacement did not fit properly. Your options are the dealer or an upholstery shop. I recommend the dealer because of the parts warranty and also the...

I would ask @Brian not AI or your local Ford dealer service department.
