I was doing a pre-buy inspection on a 2021 Fleetwood Fortis with approx. 1300 miles on it. As I walked up to the vehicle after it was brought up to front of dealership I could hear what sounded like noisy lifters. I looked at engine from over front passenger side front wheel and could see arching across a separated ignition wire. I know Ford has had an issue with ignition wires on their new 7.3 Triton engine. But why hasn't a recall been issued? I would think that this is a serious safety issue. The other question I have is - Did Ford authorize the faulty wires because the right wires were not available?

Loose Lug Nuts (7 total) 2021 Fleetwood Fortis 36DB Ford F53 Chassis. 26k . While walking my dog and passing by my RV, I happened to look at my passenger side rear wheel and noticed a lug nut extremely loose. I walked over, and by hand, with one twist, I removed the lug nut. After proceeding around my vehicle, I removed 7 lug nuts in total... BY HAND... NOT with a tool. Passenger side rear (1) passenger side front (1) drivers side front (3) drivers side rear (2). I have had the vehicle since 2/12/21 and it arrived with about 200 miles on it. (Delivery from plant in Indiana to Ohio) It now has almost 3000 miles. It has the 22.5 aluminum Alcoa wheels. Not sure if those wheels are installed at Ford during chassis build or at Rev/Fleetwood during coach build. Reported to Ganley Ford ( Ford truck service center) June 22, 2021.
