Rear quarter panel molding

...appears "untucked". Only noticed it while inspecting my new tire yesterday. Easy fix at the body shop?

Darned Klumpikat, your hem is showing! Sorry I couldn't resist thinking that as I looked at the picture. Did you run over something? Or back into a parking lot curb? That just looks like it might not have been attached properly. It doesn't look like a major hoora to fix...But I am always hesitant to let Ford dealerships work on my car. A good body shop could fix for sure...Good Luck fixing that hem!

Nope...did not hit anything. Since I scraped the underside front molding on a short curb early in ownership I have become ridiculously careful with parking. There are no marks, dents or scrapes anywhere in that area.

I have to believe it was attached improperly.

Try pushing it back in, or get under to see if there are any fasteners near that area the can be loosened, then the piece adjusted and the fasteners re-tightened. It might have taken a permanent set by now and replacement might be the best fix (warranty item).
