F150 STOP SALE

[RaptorFan1988]

Just rolled around underneath mine for a good bit. I don't even see how the heat shielding could make contact unless it was entirely detached and hanging. It's a good 4-5" away from the driveshaft. Happy to report nothing on my end but sorry to hear others trucks are victim to this.

I think thats the point. If it detaches, it will contact. It could detach from the lack of strong adhesive/ weak tab/ whatever insufficient choice they chose to attach that to the body with.

Another member in the other thread said he rolled under his, and it was pretty close to touching.

I put my VIN on the NHTSA recall checker, and didnt see one for mine, but mine is a canadian VIN.

Going to check under my truck and see if any issues.

Don't take that truck if there is any marks on the driveshaft, they need to replace it, no matter what.

yeah, i'll take a look at it as well before I take it. My luck at this point it will fail...FML

I'm sure that the lead time on a new shaft is less than 18 months.

Since the truck hasn't been driven at all yet, i'm sure it won't need a new shaft...if anything they'll need to fix the way the shields are attached and that's it. worst case

Good point! Only driven onto the rail car and the truck to the lot.

Haven’t looked at the heat shields but they found a panel dangling and brake line rubbing on tire ‍

I saw this on the Facebook group as well. . Crazy to think this isn't a recall if there are multiple trucks with brake lines rubbing on the tires.

How does that get past QC? Our grandkids will be asking us if we lived in the Covid years!
