    I have been waiting for my headlights since august 7th and no one knows when they are going to come in. They say they can't give me and ETA or anything. Is anyone else having these kind of problems?

    on certain tacos from 05-11 the daytime running light cover is melting and they said it was a safety issue so they put a recall on them.

    Don't think it's an actual recall, it's a "warranty enhancement". It applies to certain models w/DTRL. I got mine earlier this week. I went in a couple weeks ago for a service an asked about the letter I got, parts ordered after inspection and went in a week later for replacements. Even got OEM smoked ones.

    I got mine replaced the day I took my truck in and asked about it. The dealership I went to had them in stock. My dad is waiting on his though(from a different dealership).
