SERVICE PROCEDURE

WARNING: When jacking or lifting the vehicle, block all wheels remaining on the ground. Set the parking brake if the rear wheels will remain on the ground. These actions help prevent unintended vehicle movement. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

Never place your hand between the power running board and the vehicle. Extended power running boards will retract when doors are closed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.

NOTICE: When raising a vehicle on a hoist, use care when positioning the hoist adapters prior to lifting the vehicle so that hoist arms do not interfere with the surrounding suspension or steering linkage components.

Chronology :

August 2022: On August 18, 2022, an issue pertaining to 2022 model year F-150 Raptor vehicles equipped with 37-inch wheels and tires was brought to FordeBay logo’s Critical Concern Review Group (CCRG) for review. During a routine inspection, on August 10, 2022, a technician (FordeBay logo Employee) had identified low wheel lug nut residual torque on a prototype 2023 model year F-150 Raptor with 37-inch tires and wheels (T&W).

The Dearborn Plant Vehicle Team informed CCRG that a new 37-inch T&W option was introduced for the 2022 model year F-150 Raptor. On April 18, 2022, an automated three-spindle DC lug nut tool replaced a manual process. Manufacturing engineering determined that the new DC lug nut tool was incorrectly set to a nominal torque of 170 Nm instead of the intended 200 Nm. Dearborn Truck Plant audited 477 vehicles and found 236 with low residual torque. CCRG did not identify any reports of loose road wheels or separations.

On August 24, 2022, an off-cadence FRC was scheduled for August 31, 2022.

On August 31, 2022, FordeBay logo’s Field Review Committee reviewed the concern and approved a field action.

FordeBay logo is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
