Be careful with this lock. I tried to open tonight to fill gas. I’m down to 35 miles and the key cannot push all the way in. I fiddle with it and put some oil inside and now the key can only goes in 3/8 inch.

i may have to drill the lock out or call a lock smith lol.

I did see reviews saying that they had to lube it (though to be fair I saw the same reviews on the Ford OEM spare tire lock). Guess it's important to do so before it locks up. Sorry you had to deal with this!

Thanks for your concern. Last night i pryed the top cover up and with gun oil, i got the lock to open. I keep my fingers crossed while i travel next Tuesday to Vegas- Utah for Raptor Assault.
