    Vid: Found a place to take the Raptor offload in FL

    I found this spot about a mile away from a development I'm building out in Florida. This was my second time out, tried to get some video while holding my phone, next time I'll take the gopro. I liked it better my first time when it was dry and you could blast through some decent sand whoops...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    This is the response my service advisor gave me when I asked about the 2 misfire alerts I received on Ford Pass yesterday. "He had to reprogram all modules to the new trans." Does that make sense? Engine misfire because of a reprogram?

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Just received a text from my service advisor that my truck is done. Seriously crossing my fingers that this is it for problems... Regarding my last post above, does anybody have any insight on this? Is it something I need to be concerned about?

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    I have yet to see anything in writing from the Ford rep who promised to email me the offer. I'm more concerned with the transmission, engine, and turbos than service. My dealer told me last week that they are waiting on additional parts for the transmission which should arrive Wednesday...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    I highly doubt I will keep the truck for 7 years or 200k, however if it’s transferable that would certainly help with resale. I still have yet to see anything in writing and as someone mentioned I would hope a power train warranty woild cover the turbos.

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Update: Ford rep called yesterday to inform me that my local dealer received the new transmission Wednesday and they are supposed to receive the seals today. He told me that because of the problems I’ve experienced he is “authorized” to offer me either an extended power train warranty 7 years /...

    2017 Raptor Turbo Leak

    I had something similar happen in an old twin turbo RX7. The problem was a leaking hose connected to the BOV. Sorry to hear about your dealer, did you buy the truck from them?

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Ford Rep called Friday and basically reiterated what he has already said, will have an answer on a buy back Wednesday. I’m fully expecting it to be turned down. Still no ETA on the tranny, and he couldn’t promise he had the ability to pull one from the line. He said the guaranteed trade...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    smurfslayer can you explain what a guaranteed trade is? As an update the service advisor confirmed that Ford is recommending a new transmission. I asked what the ETA would be and she replied that it’s on backorder with no ETA. I left a message for the ford rep. MJslasherADMIN recommended that...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    I spoke with the call center yesterday, today I spoke with a regional rep out of Orlando, is there someone else that will contact me? I’m calling my service advisor next to let them know I want to clear any repairs to the vehicle prior to them working on it. My guess is they will offer to...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Update: Ford called regarding my claim. I explained the issues I've been having with the truck and explained I would like a buyback and another Raptor. They told me the dealer is doing an inspection and they will update me Friday and give me a decision on the buyback by next Wednesday.

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Yes I want another one, I understand shit happens, and shit happened to take a dump in my lap this time. I would bet any amount of money that if they do a buy back and I get a new one I will not have catostophic issues like this one. Just a funny honorable mention for my wasted day. I finally...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Sign of protest. I spoke with the service manager for a while. Explained how the dealership has had the truck longer than I have and how concerned I am about the transmission failing for the second time. He told me he would get with Ford engineering to figure out what the problem is. I’m...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Just got off the phone with Ford and opened my case. Horrible timing having truck issues when Hurricane Irma stopped my work schedule for almost 3 weeks.

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    I just tried to send you a PM with my #, not sure if it went through. If possible would you mind giving me a quick call. I’m getting the truck towed back to the dealership I purchase it from and I’m curious how you handled it.

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    Bad news.... noticed smoke driving down the highway, cars started flagging me down and had to pull over at the next exit. Prior to pulling over I noticed the truck was not shifting out of 10th gear, I believe before I stopped it got down to 8th. Looking under the truck it looks like a ton of...

    650 Miles and a cracked Torque Converter

    They finally finished my truck and I picked it up Tuesday. Last night when I pulled out of the garage I noticed some kind of fluid leaking. Looked under the passenger wheel well and noticed what seemed to be AC condensation dripping quite a bit. I also noticed pink tranny oil on the underbelly...

    I was not able to claim the Range Rover under Lemon Laws as the truck was 3 years old once the numerous problems started happening. I ended up trading it in. ---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ---------- This looks like what I found on my truck. I...

    Yes, and if you look at my last thread I took pics of the leak. You guys are on the lookout for trolls hard. Maybe that's not what you were getting at, but if so I'm happy to send pics or whatever proof you may need. I love the truck, but unfortunately I had bad luck with my first Ever new car...
