    Recommend repair shop in Connecticut?

    Will verify Rory. Excellent work. Trustworthy. Had some injury this past Spring but if he has recovered you won't find a better person to work on you truck.

    E brake light not turning off

    FYI: There may be an issue with your E-brake rear actuators. There's a TSB on it. Had the same problem last year on my '13 Raptor. Actuators needed to be replaced. Solved the problem.

    2013 Raptor would not start - fuel pump?

    Fuse 27 FYI y'all: Just had my dealer install the fuse kit on my '13 Raptor, 99.6 K. Had no issues (the original fuse was pristine). Charge $147. The peace of mind is well worth the $.

    Shocks leaking?

    What determines when to rebuild? Is it something you can see. Is it a specific performance reduction? Is it just the milage? I've got almost 90K on my '13 with very little offroad use. I can't feel any problems with the original Fox shocks. Need advice.Thanks.

    whirring humming noise '13 SCREW.Drive train?

    Yes. Rotors & pads installed 3 months ago. Sounds have been there from before. Regular maintenance & tire rotation every 5K. Regular inspection too. Dealer tech says they just had 2 "13's traded in with same issue. Nothing seems wrong. They had to decide if it was worth it to put new rubber on...

    whirring humming noise '13 SCREW.Drive train?

    Been having whirring & humming whenever my '13 SCREW (65K) is rolling. especially noticeable when just rolling up to a stoplight. Only heard when the wheels are moving.
