    Common issue from what I have read.

    Manufacturing defect.

    But if they try to argue it is trim, make sure they know it is a known electrical fault as a result of a manufacturing defect.

    It has to be replaced under warranty.

    I asked the question myself, that's just for a visual & to contact ford and authorise warranty repair.

    If they have to order the part it's another booking..... Seriously?!

    I wouldn't accept that, have them check it while you wait then order the part.
