[QUOTE="MTF, post: 1266654, member: 499"] I'm sorry to hear that you had such a problem, stuff like this happens from time to time and it really sucks when it does, for everybody all around. Whipple has always come through for us Raptor owners even though we are a small group. I'm sure you'll get straighten out in the end, unfortunately the damage is done and your bitter now. Just remember there are hundreds of others that are happy and have no issues. I know that you made a statement about the dealer not wanting to flash because they were afraid or some BS like that. The problem is Ford will not write another Tune with your security codes with matched vin numbers and keys [B][U]without paying!!![/U][/B]. And my understanding is that it wouldn't be exactly the same anyway, your original Tune would be flagged by Ford in there system. This is one of the measures that Ford uses to help with theft. And there's no way the dealer can write that up as a warranty service either, way too much red tape to go though. Unless the PCM did crap out which does happen Tuned or Untuned! And then Ford will take that PCM and destroy it and mark it destroyed in their system. This is what I'm being told by a Ford warranty specialist that is a friend of mine. [/QUOTE]
