Warranty repair, qc issue

[Osco]

Was at ford and they saw that my right rear quarter panel fender edge skirt was not flush with the door bottom skirt, the plastic part.
I did notice it when I washed the vehicle a week before but it was so minor I forgot about it. They ordered me a new one.
It's here, took a month, not complaining but wondering if the parts supply line is beginning to strengthen, or did they take it out of the assembly stock at the plant ?

Parts that are at the plant would never be used for a vehicle that has already been delivered.

I'm such a minor panel alignment fix would require a replacement part?

Hahaha what's so funny is the new part is on and tight. Just like the old part...
As in it fits the exact same way. The alignment is off just like before.
It is so minor I won't nit pick it with Ford.
Reminds me of the old fit and finish QC levels of cars in the 80's.
Hey it's my Bronco II.
I like this little machine. I didn't buy a Ferrari or a $70,000 F-350 Cowboy Cadillac.
