couple of ????

I found out yesterday that my cab has a leak, might be the third break light,also my antenna broke .it's broken at the threads inside i don't think it can be tapped out looks like it might have to be replaced.here are the questions,i bought my truck at a dealer about 80 miles away,but there are 2 dealers within 10 miles of me,do i have to take the truck to the dealer of my purchase for warranty work?also should i inquire about the reflash since i have the 4.6 ?is there even a reflash for the 4.6?

You can take it to any Ford dealer. I've been dealing with a dealer that I didn't buy my truck from and they have treated me great so far.

I think the TSB for the reflash applies to the 5.4 only, but don't quote me on that. It can't hurt to ask them.

houtxstx, there have been a ton of folks who had problems with the high mounted stop light leaking. If I'm not mistaken there is a TSB out on them so ask the service advisor to be sure and check for it.

I just got my 3rd brake light fixed, take it in, tell them it's leaking, and they'll take care of it for you...shouldn't take them longer than a few hours max...
