    2019 CDF Drum replacement…didn’t fix issue

    Also try and get an OASIS report from the dealer on your vehicle. It will provide a host of information on what was previously done to the vehicle. Oh and by the way, it is much easier for aftermarket warranty work to be denied (even if it is a Ford ESP) than it is for the OEM / Dealer to deny...

    2019 CDF Drum replacement…didn’t fix issue

    I have had / and in some cases still have good relationships with service writers and managers at some of the dealerships I use. However, over the last 5 years the rules by which dealers are mandated to operate and be reimbursed by OEMs have changed substantially. Where it used to be the service...

    2019 CDF Drum replacement…didn’t fix issue

    Sorry, but I disagree with the above. Years ago this was the case and if you returned your vehicle to the stock factory tune before taking it in for service there was no issue. I know for a fact that today both GM and Ford can tell if the ECU has been flashed, when it was flashed (the last 3 or...

    Rear brake pads worn

    My Gen 3 Expys (have 2) are the first of the dozens of vehicles I have owned where the rear pads ALWAYS wear out before the front. What S20 said above does make sense though, if that is the case, where the rears are being applied by the vehicle AdvanceTrac / ABS system without drivers knowledge...

    Expedition Going into Deep Sleep - Battery Low

    Excellent Advice. I have a battery maintainer with a quick connect pigtail on every vehicle we own. If any of them won't be used for a week - or we will be loading for a trip over a period of days with opening and closing of doors and hatches, they are on the battery maintainer.

    Expedition Going into Deep Sleep - Battery Low

    Does your Expy have power running boards and when sitting around are you opening and closing the doors (activating the running boards) and / or the rear hatch. I have found that when loading / unloading or cleaning my Expy over a period of time, the running boards and rear hatch activation will...

    General Grabber tires on brand new 22 Expy

    Last time I traded an Expedition, I had the dealer swap crappy Hankook tires on the new vehicle for the Michelins on my trade in. They were happy to do it as they could then sell my trade in with brand new tires, which they obviously did not recognize as low quality.

    Will my brake rotors need to be replaced at 60k?

    Did the bolt back itself out or did it snap off in the bracket?

    Will my brake rotors need to be replaced at 60k?

    I torque mine with a torque wrench in a cross pattern, but I'm sure the dealer mechs that did warranty work on my trucks from time to time did not, just blasted them on with an air wrench in a circular pattern like a NASCAR pit crew, LOL

    Will my brake rotors need to be replaced at 60k?

    Ford Expy OEM rotors are known to warp and cause slight pulsing on soft braking and a vibration / shaking when hard braking (my 11, 14 and 17 all had this "undocumented feature" from early on (10K-15K) miles. I had the 2011 cut at 12,000 by Ford under warranty because it showed no pad wear. and...

    CLASS IV TRLR TOW PREP PAK?

    Here is everything you need to know about 2019 towing and how to tell the difference between the base tow (included with the vehicle) and the HD Tow (option code 536) which includes the items listed. I've also attached the full 2019 trailer tow guide in .PDF format below as well.

    Securing large heavy cargo in the back

    Rather than screw around with the interior of the vehicle, I would do what is suggested above and rent a trailer. If whatever you are moving needs to remain clean and dry, I would rent an enclosed trailer. Small trailer can't be much to rent.
