Seats problem #1

Instrument tech here. I checked all fueses. Ran wire traces and found no brakes in wiring. Faulty seatbelt pertitioners. This should be a recall.

Seats problem #2

Trucks automatic tailgate opens by itself. I had the recall repair performed, however, the issue continues. The tailgate opens by itself even after the recall repair. Issue #2- passenger seat headrest bracket is broken and rattling loudly. Numerous complaints on the internet.

Seats problem #3

The driver and passenger seat massage do not work properly, the lumbar and seat portion work intermittently and for a shorter duration than twenty minutes (2017 Ford f250 platinum). The vehicle wiper blade rate of action randomly increases and decreases on it's own. I was told today by the Ford dealership in redding, California that a technical service bulletin had been issued for the seat massage problem, but that Ford would not correct the problem unless I pay $800. 00 for this repair. If Ford is aware that the vehicle seats have this issue and know how to correct it, why am I being charged to correct it and make it right?.
