The wheel wells on the front of my vehicle do not properly fit the well. One has been replaced twice the other once and recently the dealer made the decision to cut the wheel wells so they would no longer rub. I was told it was the best they could do. The other choice is to keep replacing them when they fail. I am concerned that somthing from the road may fly up in their and get lodged in the exposed under section. I feel there should be another alternative but Ford doesn't want to pay to get a resolution. If those well covers were not needed they wouldn't have them n their in the 1st place. So I know they are needed.
The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the contact noticed there was oil leaking from the rear passenger's side wheel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the rear axle bolt was faulty, and the rear axles needed to be replaced. The dealer replaced the rear axles under warranty. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 34,361.
When I took my truck into the dealership to have an oil change and tire rotation done the dealership found that the bolt that holds the hub onto the rear axle had broken so there was nothing holding the hub onto the axle and that the hub and tire could of come off the axle while driving. The dealership said that they had been seeing this issue on other truck
The 2022 Ford F-150 trucks are all having rust issues on the drivetrain and suspension parts. The Ford dealer has admitted there is a huge problem. It seems Ford has eliminated a coating on these parts which has allowed rust to develop even before they leave the factory. I took my truck to a local dealer and he refused to fix it under warranty. By checking the online forums you will see this is a huge problem. Rust does not fix itself. Over time it is very possible these parts will fail. I went online with a Ford customer service representative and was told someone would contact me the next day. That has been three weeks, no contact. I first noticed my rust issues a week after I took delivery of the vehicle
According to the dealer, Covert Ford in Austin, TX. A bolt on the rear axle holding the brakes to the rear axle is brittle and prone to failure. This bolt has sheared on my truck with just 10, 739.9 miles on it. The dealer says they cannot release the truck as the rear axle is damaged and the truck is un-driveable. The parts are not currently available to address the issue.
