TSB/Safety Recall 23S30: Rear Light bar Replacement for 2022-23 F-150 Lightning

[RickLightning]

Yep, went to pick it up today and dealer confirmed that they cannot release the vehicle until the recall is cleared. That means that the factory is shut down again. let's see how long before we see a press release.

No, the factory is not shutdown. Read the recall. Everything made from March 29th forward is fine.

His truck blended on 2/4/23 but didn't get it's "BUILT" date until 6/9. aka gray zone truck, Dave get a snapshot of the load & pressure sticker from the door jam when you're visiting your baby today

I get that and I totally agree, however when looking at NL34-13N466-AC, it points to NL3Z 13434A and when looking for NL34-3N466-AE... nothing shows up (which is expected since they didn't produce it yet). This is why I found the ebay listing, and it showed NL34-13N466-AC right on the sticker.

The last letter is probably a revision. The parts are interchangeable so the base number (up to the A) is all you need to specify the part. Apparently they tried a Rev D but that didn’t fix the problem and they ended up on Rev E.

Showed up this morning and dated yesterday.

Just noticed water in my taillight yesterday, I guess the monsoon resurgence the past couple weeks finally did it in. Emailing my SA to see what they want to do. Last thing I want is my light failing and I get rear ended.

My dealer got the new replacement Monday. My truck goes in tomorrow Thursday.

Reply I got was to wait for part but let them know if the lights stop working and then they'll replace with parts in stock. Kinda what I expected, hopefully the light holds out.

@Maquis That's good news! Encouraging that the new parts are starting to make their way around.

The red light bar and Reverse lights completely out, used to be just dim, how I'm supposed to back up with no reverse lights.

Jerry rig a lamp using the trailer plug & aux white lamps.
Take it to the dealer and have them replace the light bar, either with the bad stock or the revised part if they have any.

Take it in and have it replaced.

A simple part inventory check is all that's needed, it's a RECALL and any vehicle could be confirmed defective in 30 seconds by the service writer, no tech involvement needed, WTF are these people doing?
