Oh boy. Its been a minute since this was an everyday discussion on the Forum. 🤣

Im not sure what you mean by vendor. If you mean dealer, no, there was never a fix or one that was promised. Most people purchased one of the two aftermarket fixes and called it day. Midway through the '25 production the holes disappeared and no explanation was ever given from Ford.

Id honestly forgotten all about it until you posted this. If you want more info, just do a search on the forums. There were TONS of threads on it.

I was wondering when I put my steeda jacking rails on why there was so much rock and leaves etc tucked up in the rocker panel area. Well something else to put on the list to purchase and install.

You would think ford would fix this issue or build cars without gaping holes in body. Make ya wonder?!?!??! I said the same thing, hence the reason i found them dang things. Installed the steeda jacking rails and was like WTF!!!

So does a 2026 mustangs come with the upgraded fixed hole issue?? If so, maybe we can just buy 2 new fenderwell liners.

i recommend the ones from frank they bolt in vs glue
less messy and easier to install and remove if you ever have to remove the fender liner
i got mine last year from him

I also came up with my own (I think) neat and most convenient available fix for this problem. Apart from removing a screw on the underside of the vehicle, the installation literally takes 10 seconds.
I recorded a short video showing the full installation process.
If you're interested you can hit me up as well!

From the thread I dug in it said Ford fixed this at some point with the 2025 model.
