I did several searches and didn't find any threads on this topic.

Not sure how this happened, as I parked way away from anyone at Fred Meyers to prevent door bangers. I bought this truck 2 weeks ago, 10k miles on it, and I love it. Still getting used to it, but the tail light lens is frustrating.

I think someone did it on purpose as there are no scratches or scraptes at all on the paint. Maybe it's the suspicious truck in the background.

After looking online, looks like the tail light with BLISS is $1,200! I don't want to turn it in to my insurance because I bought this truck with the money from my totalled Fusion. It was the other driver's fault, but USAA has been good to me, and i have a $250 deductible.

So my question is, does anyone know if I can buy just the lens? If not, I'm probably going to glue the cracks and call it good.

Sad that this happened. ? Unfortunately the lens cannot be had as a separate part. That taillight with the LED lights is a one piece assembly, not serviceable. Yes, New it is $1200 and that does not include the BLIS radar sensor which is a separate part that mounts to it. Gluing may be your only option unless you can find a salvage one. That may be hard with the current part shortages going on.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Good luck in you search.

My wife backed my truck into the garage, like I always do because we have two vehicles. unfortunately she broke my tail light in the process. Been all over internet this morning and here, where the best info is. Looks like insurance time. Unless local Ford recking yard has one. Truck also has Blind spot. Oh boy....
