1700 miles....Noticed oil in my driveway.....looked under the truck and sure enough oil all over the bottom of the truck.

Took a pic of general area where it's coming from and obviously needs to go to the dealer. Highly inconvenient for me but it is what it is. Hopefully not serious....

Sorry to hear that... hopefully it's something simple and you get your ride back asap.

The truck is pissed off because you stripped off its graphics package. It's payback.

Jokes aside, it's first year build quality issues man. Hang in there, hope you get it sorted out soon.

Does the car's console tell you when oil level is low? Curious if car warned you, or if the only way you would have avoided a dangerous oil starvation state is by paying attention to your driveway.

Oil level still good....a very slow minor leak....put some cardboard under it and it was one or two drops over a 2 hour period yesterday....I haven't really looked but on some quick checks did not see any gauges for oil level on the dash....

Another member on here had a oil leak also. something about a backordered part. do a search should find it.

Thanks I will look....

After Ford fixes the issue, I would demand that they completely degrease everything so there is not a spot of oil anywhere.

My oil leak on my previous '17 @300 miles was the oil pan seal; my oil leak picture looks almost identical to yours. Sucks but I hope they get your issue resolved quickly and more importantly do the repair correctly the first time.
