Many of us who have updated to v3.4.22251 (including me) via USB are not getting the XML when the update is complete. The update is successful, we just can't tell Ford.
Call the company. At the very least to inform them of their screw up. In my opinion, they should pay to have this professionally repaired and refund the cost of the product.
There is another location with a similar "indent"....on the hood up near the windshield. I don't have a close up, but I've marked where it is on the attached photo. It's on both sides. Bugs me a little because I see it when I'm driving. I know it's not damage, it's just the stamping process.
I really miss the Bull Ring tie downs that I had on my F-150. I'm not aware of anything similar for our Rangers, but I'll be following this to see if there is something out there.
Hood/fender alignment at the corner near the windshield. Fixed it myself by loosening fender bolts and pulling fender out. Apparently, a fairly common issue.
