Hey Screwbuilder, this is not directed at you personally but if there is some program at work for complaints could you mention one for me? The door handles on my new truck are mismatched. One is painted gloss black and the other is flat. I don't know if you have seen the pics I posted but if you look close on the passenger side you can see it. I'm a retired auto worker and it's silly stuff like this that gives us a bad name. Again nothing personal but WOW.
Unfortunately, when we build 600 vehicles a day on a moving assembly line, we periodically put on the wrong part, but that's why we have quality control inspectors. I guess if we both have a brain fart on the same vehicle, the customer gets a truck with different door handles. And that's why we have a warranty I guess. Still, it's an amazing looking truck, and I'm jealous I didn't order the 20's. Mine will be built later this week. Take Care.

Once it hits the gate at the factory, your dealer should be able to track on the carrier (either RR or truck) by VIN.

Hey Bossey, the truck looks awesome, and I'm sorry to hear about the door handle. I'm an auto worker as well, and can't beleive that the mistake wasn't caught on the inspection line in KC. When you take your truck back to the dealer, a warranty issue report will be sent back to the plant, and hopefully the problem will be dealt with so other Ford customers won't have to deal with this type of thing.

One other question. The picture you provided of the black fill in for the reflector on the side mirror, how does one go about getting these from Ford. I talked with the parts department at my Ford dealership and they were lost. Had no idea. Also does anyone know if you can order a locking gas cap for the 2010 F 150. Once again parts department had no idea. Not sold on the new gas filler. No gas cap. Thanks.
