Orange Wire Housing Hanging Down Under 2025 GT

[JuRD]

When I look under my 2025 GT I see this orange wire/housing hanging down.
It looks like it could get hooked on road debris.
Does anyone else see the same and did you do anything to tuck it up out of the way?

I had the same thing and just repositioned it.

I have that same wire hanging down along with the blue wire also hanging down. And that bolt is also hanging too low. I will have the dealer address all three at my first oil change. They could easily be damaged by road debris. I am just too old to crawl under there and try to fix it myself, and why should I?

I’m also too old to crawl under my GT.
I can do it, but it’s an SOB to get up.
When I do my first oil change, I will take a look and take some photos.
Thank you.

New DHP owner. I looked under my car yesterday. The blue wire is tucked in nicely, the orange one is hanging down on my car as well. The orientation of that bolt or slip fit connector whatever it is, is also poorly positioned on my car. I'm going to address both this weekend. The orange wire is hanging down about 4 in. I have some wire conduit and tape that I can put on it to protect it even more. I haven't looked at the bolt closely enough to see what it is yet but if it can be rotated I'll do that as well. These things should have been corrected in the PDI. These cars are already low enough that I don't need anything hanging down further.

Quick update. I took a swing at this yesterday. I used my ramps and backed the rear wheels up on them. Then slid jack stands in (safety first).at two points I saw in another post. Unfortunately this didn't give me enough clearance. This was my first time under the car. I did get to check out the active exhaust more closely, the rear diff and Ford's suspension. Very different from my Subaru's. From the side, with the car raised I got a better view of the wires and down facing bolt. I was able to tuck the orange wire in a little bit with my fingers. It is very well secured, and near the driver's side exhaust pipe, but not so close that it would get damaged.

I have some engine bay conduit and cloth tape that I'm going to put on them anyway once I can get in there. Probably unnecessary but it won't hurt. Will try my ramps on the front wheels next.

I have 2, pretty narrow single car garages. Also looked at the inner frame rails to evaluate if the Steeda Jack Rails would be a good option for my situation. Car maintenance is always more challenging in tighter spaces.

This thread was certainly helpful either way.
