Yeah I ended up selling my '22 Raptor in little over a month because of QA issues that made me lose confidence for long term quality for an expensive product.
1. Transmission cooler connection loose, towed to dealer because lost all transmission fluid.
2. Pedal vibration and notorious "clunk" issue with the rattle over bumps.
3. Uneven tailpipes ( I know this is minor but just lack of attention to detail).

Was a little disheartening after waiting almost 7 months, but convinced just unlucky compared to many of those issue free and maybe one day when another truck won't take over 7 months to get, I'll try for a Raptor again.

Article mentions that it’s been going on for years. This was why Ford had so many leadership changes over the last decade as the new regime was tasked with solving the problem.

Kind of a clickbait article because they didn't compare percentages against the competition. Just numbers and no comparison. Does Ford have two or three or ten times the recall rate, or is it 10% higher? Because they didn't do the actual comparison, I suspect that the 10% number is more likely.
