Hood and Lightbar alignment.

Anyone else have a misaligned hood and lightbar?

Nope, not my IBSM Lariat.

Even taper across the hood line and light bar is almost perfect.

Adjust the knobs on the side, they are located inside the Frunk. One is probably higher that the other and I believe those are for leveling the hood when it shuts, at least that’s what I believe like other ICE vehicles.

Dealer can adjust, but you can as well, two adjustable hood rest with scre shaft on each side. Raise the driver's side up and lower the passenger. See pics.

The LED above the headlight is fixed to The fender but the LED on the hood will adjust with the hood as you raise and lower the rubber stop.

There's more going on there than a simple hood adjustment. Look at the gaps on the fender. It shouldn't point up like that..

Could be I have seen camera angles make things look wonky. I would just have the dealership look at it, while I watch.

I'll take a look at that. Thanks

The reveal between the light bar and the hood looks different left and right. Driver's side has a bigger black space than passenger side. Then it gets much tighter above the headlight. It may be camera angles, but is the hood edge pushed in on the driver's side corner? The fender edge at the front certainly looks wonky. Passenger side hood should come up a tiny bit, but the drivers side hood/fender looks like a sheet metal problem. The light bar lines up almost evenly with the headlight assembly on both sides.

This is not right. The gap from the fender to the light bar gets wider and the gap between the fender and hood gets narrower. The fender needs to be straightened out.

Can someone please tell me if this was figured out? On 23MY, the driver's side headlight DRL bar is sitting too high or the center DRL is sitting too low. Is this something that needs to be fixed throigh Ford's service. Thanks in advance for any advice.

If it was this way when you bought the truck, why didn't you have them fix it beforehand? If it bothers you that much, sure talk to the dealer about it and see what they say.
If it really really bothers you, I can save you the anxiety and take the truck off your hands.

Had a similar issue. My lightbar was misaligned on the driver's side. Adjusted the driver side knob and now all is well and aligned, Thank for the tip!
