How much is vehicle being driven? Length of typical drive both time and miles? Could be situation it isn't being driven enough to keep the battery at full charge between drives or trips are too short. If nothing else is found and vehicle sits for days at a time, I'd put a trickle charger on...

Ahh, missed that. In that case, 100% oversight and workmanship. I'd give the dealer the chance to correct, if possible, because sure as shit you pull the motor something stupid like glass crack or studs pull off and relieves them of all responsibility.

AITA..... If they replaced the cap shell it wouldn't be necessary to pull the motor off the glass. Not saying they didn't just as a matter of caution but all that was needed is unhood wiring to motor, heater grid, washer jet and unbolt at the top hinges. Not excusing it not being caught but...

If you replace the frame the entire drivetrain, suspension, fuel system, wiring has to be swapped over which would get into a ton of time. Some of the guys on our dealer forum have been pulling bodies to do engines like we do on trucks to save backs and allow easier access. Can't remember what...

DM me a pic or the numbers.

It's done if they go by OE repair procedures. Don't think a shady shop is going to risk the liability to try and repair the body even if they do the whole frame. Dealers/repair shops have become a prime target for huge lawsuits and everyone is going "by the book" which is why you see a lot...

When the vehicle arrives at the dealer there will be a tag with 5 digits which is the code. A lot of dealers don't keep this with the vehicle or record it in the DMS like we do. The only method, beside locksmith is having dealer do a key code request with Ford which is a PITA. Have to get a...

As long as you have the key cut code, just about any locksmith can cut one. They can also decode from the original but it will save your rear if keep the code written down somewhere in case of lost fobs.

Yes, the diagram uses partial base numbers for part callout.

Don't know if this is going to make any difference as the dealer should've already done a used car inspection and either fixed which is in the cost or have a list of needed items. I'd definitely make sure they perform the two open recalls if not already done and ask them to update all of the...

Just checked OASIS and there's no warranty history. Shows two open recalls (rear camera and wiper motor) which I can't understand why they haven't done them yet. Previous owner had a premium care ESP which may be transferable if they didn't initiate a refund. The 2.3 may feel underpowered...

Try finding new aftermarket or good used early bronco rear lift glass latches. Unobtanium!!

Shows 18 in Detroit warehouse?????

It's the crappy stock pics Revolution uses until Ford releases stock images to pull over or the dealer actually takes a pic and uploads it to their site.

Were the axles removed from the hubs when you did the work? Need last 8 of VIN to verify the correct axle part number.

As long as it hits the damage threshold % and you don't have some sort of attachment to it, I agree. Yes, it's a FE but there really isn't any real collector added value to these so if the numbers work, take the buyout and look for a newer model.

If the body shop follows OE procedures, meaning they put it on a laser frame measuring rack, hung targets and measured the amount of diagonal, it's toast. Beside the front and rear repair sections, there's no provision for these frames to be straightened/pulled according to Ford. Good chance...

Here's the '24 Premium Care ESP brochure. Make sure to look at the bottom for what is generally excluded. Unless you purchase additional coverage, it doesn't include stuff like wheels, tires, brakes, body panels, exterior trim, glass, interior trim, seat covers, carpet, trim panels, battery...
