Nope, my local dealer takes a week to look at my truck, they say that I didn’t buy it there, so they put other people in front of me.
It was there for a low oil pressure problem (and other issues) and they said it was the sending unit and replaced it (took over a week from drop off to pick up, no loaner car).
The dealer I bought it at is to far away to work with.
The best place I found is a dealer that is about 45 min. away and treats me with respect.
They fixed my brake warning issue with new computer software and looked over the entire truck without me even asking (brakes, tire pressure, lights ect.)
I don’t think I am going to take it to the dealer for this starting noise issue unless it gets worse.
I just wanted to add my experience to this thread.
Thanks for taking an intrest.

I completely understand. Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any concerns in the future!

Update everyone: I now have the noise on video! I let the truck sit for 3 days (it will not make a sound after only sitting overnight) and I recorded it starting with the remote start. Now I am going to the dealer to express my concerns. I will keep you updated with my findings...

Well I haven't been able to make my truck make the sound since my last post, but it has started making a different sound, referenced in this thread:
https://www.f150forum.com/f38/2013-f...-noise-234342/
I think they may be somewhat related and the noises have originated in the same side and spot in the engine. So I am closer to finding out a solution...

Get it fixed?
Took a video of my truck doing it yesterday morning.. right around 15 seconds you can clearly hear it. Its been doing it every start up ever since I received it. Has 7100 miles

Did you ever figure out what the noise was or get it fixed? I am having the same problem with my 2013 F150 5.0 @ 34,000 miles. I've taken it to two different dealerships. Been in there three times for the noise but they "couldn't replicate it". Typical.

I will attach a short video.
the noise can be heard only at the start of the video
it seems to be coming from the front of the engine.. in the pulley area
a metallic wooooo
noise
again it only started last winter and this winter at 4 years and 120K miles
it doesn't do it when warm
