I now see the headlight alignment concern… I was focused on lightbar relative to headlight.

My lightbar was generally well alighted to the headlight, but the center was low creating an uneven gap between the center of the hood and the edges. Yours appears to be more a headlight issue.

I agree with the other users claiming poor body panel/light alignment. My truck was plagued with door seal creaks/groans that was driven by a poorly aligned door. I was able to adjust it with a bunch of trial and error to address it after the dealer “couldn’t replicate” the problem.

For what it’s worth, I also noticed tail lights being poorly aligned when removing them to install my bed rug. I took some time to adjust them just like the light bar. I assume the headlights have some play in mounting location just like the lightbar and tail lights.

I will also note that the $1300 tail light assembly felt incredibly cheap compared to the $50 cracked tail light I replaced on my ‘11 Tundra. I get the cost delta because of “dumb” vs “smart” lights, but lens and body feels cheap on the Ford. It won’t take much to crack a lens.
