Default Headlight


Hello, I’m new here and just purchased a 2018 F-50 lariat and love it. I’m pretty particular about my stuff and when cleaning the truck I noticed what appears to be a black hair over the lens of the low beam LED headlight. For what ever reason it bugs me. What are your thoughts any way to get it out of there?

just worried about voiding the warranty by doing this. The truck has 300 miles on it.

if it is under warranty, then I would take it back and have them replace...

they will probably try to give you attitude and convince you to just ignore it.. stick to your guns and be adamant you would like something done about it
