Parking brake boot.....Genuine Pleather

[7Boomerang7]

I've got a mint one in my garage.

Saving it for when all the factory boots are ripped and Redline can't get boots from Poland because of WWIII.

I'll list it at $100 starting bid. Profit

Pretty sure a truck boot won’t be worth anything then

I disagree.

When the apocalypse happens and the whole family is piling into the Ranger for their bug out vehicle, the driver will look down at that torn factory boot and think "I've gotta buy a new one of those and you can't get them anywhere now. I wonder if Dr. Z still has that mint one? I'd be willing to pay a handsome price to get rid of that eyesore. I'll have to hit him up with some smoke signals once we get away from the carnage"

My dealer in NJ says it's not covered under the 3yr 36K 'Bumper to Bumper' factory warranty......

Did you point out that it is indeed located between the bumpers? Given the number of these things that have been replaced under the warranty, I'd have to say the evidence points at your dealer being wrong. Either open a claim directly with Ford, or just avoid the hassle and send some money Redline's way.

Its not covered. A $2 part with two minutes labor. Find a new dealership and definitely complain online

Well that doesn't seem right or fair. When my Mountaineer was still under warranty, I had a crack develop in the driver's leather seat in the area where you slide out. Dealer replaced leather seat cover under warranty. I'd be making a phone call to the higher ups!

How long did it take to get the leather boot from Redline? Did you have to sign for package?

Mine took a couple of weeks. Did not have to sign for it.

This is definitely covered under warranty, I've had mine replaced. Either there's something specific to NJ or the dealer is just clueless. (Or, I suppose, it is possible that Ford has issued a TSB saying that cracked parking brake boots are normal for the ranger and will no longer be replaced under warranty [because they've already cost ford too much money], but I'd want to see that in writing before believing a dealer.)
