Blend Door Issues - Resolved?

[Prio]

Been reading lots of horror stories of the blend door replacements. Is this issue year specific, or has Ford made improvements to rectify it in later (Gen 6 )years.

Considering this is the first I've heard of any blend door issue, and the fact you didn't mention what vehicles this affected, yup, totally fixed.

Never heard of such a thing? Mind sharing where you read or heard this from?

I believe the previous gen had this issue.

Theres no blend issue for the new gen. I believe they did finally fix late in 24 the tail light issue that was causing chips on the driver side though.

My 2024 has started making noises that sound like they’re coming from the HVAC blend system. Happens alot when the truck turns off at stoplights and then again after it restarts. Plastic ticking noise like the door is getting jammed while it actuates. Plan to bring it up at my next service, but I’m not keen on them ripping the entire dash apart to replace it until it completely fails.

I wouldn't procrastinate if they are willing to give a loaner. Just get it done. I procrastinate it on my 2019 and elapsed.
