Default Dash warp

My 2018 XLT Sport is starting to warp on passenger side defrost vents. It is noticeable from the drivers seat, and very easy to see looking through window.

also notice condensation in rear drivers tail lens, mostly looks like the clear reverse light lens.

Weird. My '15 was fine thru 3 years, so far my '18 is fine. Good to be lucky I suppose...

Default Warp

I noticed mine the first day. Coming from a BMW and being used to a certain level of interior fit and finish quality, I will bring this up to get it on record and every other time I bring it into the dealership thereafter. The 2018 rental I have has one and the 2018 rental I had for work have the same hump. My eyes dart to it every time I get into the truck.

In the area of the defroster vent, mainly on the driver’s side; this was common on cheap cars in the 70s and 80s. I used a Covercraft Dashmat on my ‘16 XLT. It seemed to help a lot. Whatever the case, Dashmats are really nice. They also help protect delicate electronics in the dash from summer heat. I’d throw my sunglasses on top of it and they wouldn’t slide off. I’m gpoing to get one for my new Lariat too.
