You know what the definition of insanity is, right?

Ram? HA HA HA HA HA

Research shows quality has been on the decline since the 90's/early 2000's across products. Not just a Ford issue.

Why do you keep going back to Ford if your so unhappy. Just sell it and move on.

Ram? HA HA HA HA HA

It was said on the news the other day that "Hamas terrorists in Toyota pick up trucks drove through the breached border with Israel..." which reminds me of what I read some years ago. If you want to stop terrorism, give them all RAM pickups...

I always bought ford cars and then got burned due to poor quality on my last 2. Have not bought one for 15 years and bought 2 Mavericks this past year. Bought a Ram in 2014 and it has been the best vehicle I have ever owned. Has 160K on the odometer and still going strong. I'm giving them a chance, but I am nervous about it. Hearing about the Explorer debacle and videos like this doesn't bode well:

Buy a Rolls Royce. I hear the build quality is fantastic on those. No orange peel at all.

If the bedliner is a genuine Ford accessory it should have a a warranty including for all parts being present. Document your situation with a letter to the dealer. Then file a small claims action for the cost of the item. Meanwhile, get a spray in bedliner from Line-X. I showed Line-X what Ford charges from the factory [$495] and he matched the price.. Try Line-X of Corona first. My Mav is my first Ford ever but I knew going in that even Ford CEO Jim Farley knows that quality is not Job 1 at Ford and that Ford spends a lot of money fixing things that should have been done right when it was assembled.

At this point you could just swap whatever brand you want vehicle with anything new/modern and they would be out of transportation in a year easily. It's a total toss up across every single manufacturer. Those 20-30 year old Toyota's are running on blown head gaskets and sandy blend fuel better than brand new "ingenuity" ever will. Pretty soon they are going to make the engines themselves out of plastic parts and you can assemble your $100k Geo Metro sized luxury vehicle like a set of Lego's - just make sure you do an unboxing video to generate hype and leave a review as soon as you get it - not before you actually test/use it for long periods.

You wish your Ford was not built by Ford?
