Anyone else getting rocks between brake disks and covers?

Default Anyone else getting rocks between brake disks and covers?

Either this is a design flaw or I should be playing the Powerball?

For the third time since purchasing the truck a month ago, I've gotten a rock stuck between a brake disk and its inner cover while driving over a dirt road. It has happened in different wheels, so obviously all covers are too separated from the disk. I've been driving for 32 years and this never happened to me before--I know because the screeching noise this makes is just unbelievable.

Has anyone else experienced this problem with the new f150?

Put her in reverse and they usually pop out on applying the breaks.

This happens more with brand new tires and will lessen in short order.
