Thumbs down Crack in the bed of truck
Has anyone else had to deal with this yet. After about 4 weeks after buying the 2015 f150 and about 600 miles. I noticed I have a 12 inch vertical crack in the aluminum. Its going vertically up the rear column in the corner near where the tailgate latches. Not sure if this is an isolated issue. Up to this point I have mostly positive things about the aluminum. I'm starting to second guess my decision now.

That looks awful, sorry you have to deal with that on your new truck. Hopefully the dealer can fix it under warranty. Let us know how your experience at the dealer goes.

That's insane! (as every 15' and 16' owner runs to check their truck)

It looks as though there's been some sort of crushing/compression impact on to of the bed rail.
