I owned a 2018 Gen 2, put roughly 60k miles on it and it had all of those issues. With an added bonus of leaking coolant from one of the turbos which caused it to overheat. I always loved the Raptor but the build quality was subpar and I got rid of it. Best of luck with your truck.
@@rickeyb450 they way it looks they all eventually get the leaking coolant lines. Mine's been leaking for years but very little at first. It has recently started to get worse.
I had the hard shifting transmission issue on purchase of my 2017 with 48k miles. I got the Cobb tuner and put on their transmission tune. 20k later it is still shifting smooth as butter.
Hey with the Cobb tuner you purchased, which transmission tune did you find works best? I thought Cobb had a few different transmission tunes to choose from. Thanks!
@@michaelschuerman2847 I am using simulated stock right now. It is like what you would expect Ford to do on their OEM TMC program. OEM+ was only marginally different and as I am putting in some longer trips right now I just went back to the sim stock. I have not tried sport yet. Tons of threads out there with more information than I have too. Cobb has been great and the Accessport is easy to use too.
Cheap fix just get for scan and turn off adaptive transmission can fix the hard/slip shifting for free.
It's supposed to shift fast in sport mode. That translates into it feeling hard. It goes through the gears fast. If it's not doing that then something is wrong.
Hey man. Love Raptors. One of my dream vehicles. There’s a 19’ with 114k miles, maintained meticulously, and has even had new shocks installed by the dealer. I’ve heard these trucks last for 250k miles with no problems, but I’ve heard horror stories as well. Was wondering if you think this is a truck o could trust long term, especially with me running 91+ octane fuel with oil changes every 5k miles
@@ItsZeebs It can be hit or miss. I fell like the 19 and 20’s are a little better for kinks being worked out. I plan to drive my raptor for quite awhile so time will tell on longevity. Biggest thing is just get a Ford ESP warranty so if anything happens you’re covered. But overall I have no regrets with mine!
I had hard shifting on my 2019. Took it into ford (warranty) and they replaced the torque converter. Reset the transmission and tbh it still shifts hard. Just don’t want to leave my truck at the dealer for weeks again. Maybe I’ll take it to a better dealer.
My 2017 has had every single one of these issues. I reset the shift tables using forescan worked great, have not addressed the sunroof or oil pan yet
I need to try do the resetting of the shift tables!
100%get the longest warranty you can with any ecoboost. Speaking from experience. Also if you get the oil pan replaced try to get the aluminum one. The plastic ones will leak again.
Ya I’ve heard trying to get the aluminum pan can be a hassle.
Had my truck for 3 weeks and the phaser rattle started .... Glad I have a warranty.
Ya Is what it is. The worse of it all is just going without the truck!
@@f1fiftyjimmy agreed! That’s the worst part mentally preparing for the worst (waiting on parts etc) so it ends up taking weeks. I take it in tomorrow so we’ll see.
@@VanWohow’d it go??
Ford warranty is definitely key! Crazy what dealers will sell used and not even knowing everything that's been done to it. Buying an offroad purpose truck is definitely more tricky in some ways.
I really want a Gen 2 Raptor, I’m actually in the market for one but I have so many concerns due to the problems I keep hearing about these trucks. It just seems like they have too many problems to be 40 to 60K premium truck. Reliability is my number one priority and I don’t sense that on this truck. Wondering if I should get a Gen1 or Gen3 instead.
I was in the same boat but after getting my 2019 raptor I feel pretty confident in it being a good daily/road trip truck. Biggest thing is just get a Ford ESP warranty.
Did you paint your rear wheel wells or how did you make them black instead of white?
@@gymbalaya I have actual plastic wheel wells
Hey Jim ! Should I spend 45k on a 2018 raptor with around 50k miles, or is it ok to buy one used with around 80k miles for just under 40k? That’s my current dilemma, debating if paying more for fewer miles is worth it. Not financial advice, but what does your gut tell you?
I was in that same dilemma before I bought mine. I’d say really depends on how long you think you’ll keep it. There’s no harm with an 80k mile raptor, just get that ford esp on it. I knew I would keep it for some years and drive it so I was trying to buy one at the 50-75k mile range. Mine had 59k when I bought it.
What do u think about the Cobb access port? Do u think it’s safe to do a tune with it ?
If I could get your opinion or anyone’s for matter; I actually just dropped off my Raptor at the dealer cause while on the freeway I was cruising at about 80. When I wanted to pass a car and I gave more gas, my transmission started shifting to random gears. It went from 1-4-8-5 etc. RPMs went extremely high, then back to 10th gear then drove normal. This happened to me several times but it’s not consistent. It just happens out of nowhere. However this time, my transmission overheated and started leaking trans fluid. Is this random shifting also known as issue? If so what’s the main issue caused by it? Luckily I purchased the extended warranty but I’m just hoping there’s an updated part or something just as Ford updated the cam phasers. Any input would help a lot!!
I actually every so often get jumpy rpms but its only a certain time. Say I get to work wait 3-4 hours to drive my truck and itll do this right away one time and then it doesn't do it anymore. My guess is for my truck either a tune or getting the transmission memory reset would fix it.
Do you know can you put an ESP warranty on a 2017 with 90K miles? Your videos are really good!
Thanks bro appreciate it! You sure can, you’ll just have to get a used vehicle inspection for about $100-150 and then you can purchase one!
how about dont even buy it if they dont replace them cam phasers
would you guys buy a raptor again knowing about all these issues?
You betcha, just try to look for one that's been taking care of if possible and get a Ford ESP warranty. I know someone with two gen 2 raptors.
Definitely, my 2017 has been flawless, zero issues and always fun to drive.
It’s a Ford that’s why
I had a 19’ all the problems…The conclusion I came to, FORD makes garbage products!!!
