Is there any way to make this a living list? Where we can update the main list and not just keep adding posts.
If I knew how to do that I would, I'm hoping someone smarter than me can do that.

I took my truck to a body shop to have some paint cleaned up after someone decided my new truck was too pretty and that keying it would make it look more appropriate; they had another 2015 from the local lot that apparently had a defective windshield -- we had a pretty bad rain storm a couple weeks ago and apparently the whole interior was pretty much ruined by the leaky windshield.

If I was visiting this forum for the first time and reading this list...I probably wouldn't even want to buy one anymore :-\

This thread is a joke!!! Why not just have the whole truck torn down and reassembled to your specifications. Many of these issues are unique to one truck. Many people only find this forum because they have a problem and then post it. Some of these issues are not true issues but people being overly picky about a new truck. Lots of these issues also would never have come up if the selling dealer had done a proper pre delivery inspection.

Yes there are some recurring problems that even Ford admits to and they are working on an effective fix. IE the rear armrest.
