[QUOTE="Nospell, post: 1276671, member: 28264"] I have been lurking here for a while and this is my first post, unfortunately not under positive circumstances. I bought a 2018 raptor at the very end of 2017, build date is 11/17. I really enjoy the truck and had 14615 trouble free miles when my transmission went out last Saturday. The dealer did a good job getting me into a rental F150. The first prognoses was a bad valve body. This was replaced mid last week, but didn’t solve the issue. The transmission was removed on Friday and the current prognoses is that some gear in the front housing was installed wrong, this produced shavings that took out the clutches and valve body. Unfortunately, the dealer wants to repair and not replace the transmission. What do you folks think? Shavings through the transmission and a dealer rebuild on a pretty new truck don’t sound right to me. The dealer told me to contact Ford corporate with the issue. I tried the online chat, with no progress. I have read in other treads that folks have had success raising such issues with corporate. I understand there is no email address? How are folks getting access to a higher order in Ford? PS, I don’t need any tips about drilling 1/16” holes in things….I have already read all those threads;) [/QUOTE]
