'23 Lariat Tail Light Replacement - a personal saga

[DeePagne]

Would the Ford ESP extended warranty cover that? If you add the LED add on?
That’s a scary amount of money for a tail light. Starting to reconsider purchasing

I believe so. It was one of the reasons I decided to purchase it along with the giant screen I use daily that I never want to pay to replace.

It will not cover collision damage or abuse.

Seems like pretty cheap insurance for that stuff. How many miles did you get it for? Originally I thought I’d do 100,000 but now I’m thinking maybe more just in case I keep not longer

Agreed.

Didn’t even think about that. Good point.

Just brought a new Lightning home and am a little sick to my stomach as I begin to understand what I've just opted myself into. Great to mostly sidestep that $5K scam, I mean bill. All that said, does the EBay replacement assembly come with its own sensors/ electronics? Was the successful procedure to swap back to the originals or to go with what came with the lens? Thank you.

The Ebay assembly I bought did have its own sensor, but the truck did not recognize it and threw an error disabling all the proximity goodness. Solution for me was to swap the sensors. I did not contact the dealer to see if or how much they would charge to program a new sensor.

I did this also. Used my original sensor, installed it into the lens housing I got from EBay, and everything worked with no programming or issues.
