Do I have this right? The dealer installed plates on the bumper by adding holes for it?Hi everyone... A quick update here.
Took the car into the dealership on March 5th to get this fixed, and got it back today, finally. They had to do body repair work from issues present upon delivery (tried to drill holes through the back bumper to install temp license plate rather than just using provided bolt holes, a gouge and misaligned panels). Upon opening the door the very first time at the dealership, the kickstand remained extended. No joke, the exact reason the car went in to get fixed in the first place and it happened on the first try. I tried to replicate at home but couldn't do it, in fact the kickstand retreats immediately after opening so now I get this fun thing. Seems I've replaced a door randomly swinging open with now a pinch hazard.....
Needless to say, we will be taking the car to a different dealer to try again at some point, but first I'll be putting in a call to the Ford corporate number to let them know what's going on in hopes they can guide me.
