i was thinking that exact thing, bc the ENTIRE passenger side is messed up: the front bumber doesnt line up with the body, the gap in between the fender and the hood is a lot bigger then the other side, the door does not align, and the trunk on this side is higher than the other side too. and the drivers side is all PERFECT, everything aligns and sits flush. its kinda weird that its only the passenger side of the car. but i bought it brand new with 20 miles on it, and no signs of body work either

Maybe being so picky, check the entire car over BEFORE
purchasing. Thats when you have the most power to
have it fixed (before buying).
Are you sure its not dog tracking also??

And just be happy it's probably not half as bad as the fit and finish of the classic Mustangs!

you can take it to any Ford dealer you wish. It does not have to go back to the selling dealer. My guess is that the car was hit. Sorry to say

What if it had "Queef" painted in purple on the hood?

When you buy a new car, or anything, you expect it to be perfect, but it isn't always. You really have to check it over carefully before taking delivery. I've been guilty of glossing over my inspections of my newly purchased cars but have been lucky and never had a bad experience like yours.

Definitely take it in for repair... to any Ford dealer you choose.
