Id have the dealer tackle that. Axle is pinned but has a bit of play in the holes. 1/4 inch over gets you square. However there is play in the body mounts as well...sooo the cab and bed could be set to the left. Again easy fix (by dealer)
With that being said, measure from the frame to the tire. Then if that is the same you know it's the body

frame to the edge of the tire on both sides seems to be just about 23" they are no more then 1/8" different, and that is easily just me not measuring the same points

Mmm probably the body then. Can you make a plumb bob and see if your front is off? Hold the string on the fender and measure tire

Welcome to Ford ownership. My Raptor sat at the dealership for 37 days once while trying to unscrew a transmission issue - eventually replaced the torque converter which fixed it. I wasn't offered a loaner car until about 20 days into the ordeal.
Good luck with the fix and I hope they resolve it soon!

I own both Ford and Mercedes Benz. Their is NO comparison in these brands, the MB dealer always has a loaner,and bends over backwards for the customer. Not so with Ford. Oh, and the cost for service is not that much different, ( 100$ ford, 110$ MB) and my gen 2 wasn't much cheaper to buy than my MB. BTW, 5K miles on my truck and no problems.
Just had the same conversation with my wife... I’m a ford guy, got a 72 bronco and 68 mustang and her 2017 raptor has been an issue and the dealership doesn’t grasp customer service at all
