6 weeks/ 1.500 miles.
Likes: Power, handling, comfort, a ridiculous number of electronic toys (features). Bluecruise seems intriguing if I can get comfortable with it over longer trips. Tows great (22' Wells Cargo toy hauler). It replaced a 2013 Armada, so a huge step up.
Problems: Upholstery on third row seat not properly installed (middle lower corner has a 3" flap exposed) and declared to be "normal" by local dealer. Has anyone else had a similar issue? The dealer claimed to have multiple vehicles with the same issue. Shouldn't make it right/normal.
Calibrating/setup of Pro Backup Assist is a nightmare. Error messages are useless (turn tighter). Instead of guidance to complete setup from the dealer they started clearing codes and realigning cameras. Neither helped. The setup process only asked for trailer length from tow ball to trailer bumper, and its width, before pulling forward and then turning. I filled out a sheet with several different dimensions before my first attempt, but the setup process does not ask for any of it. From what I've read, these issues are not unusual. Is this process different compared to the '22s and '23s?
There is no engine cover. All the mounting points are still there, but no cover. Probably just cosmetic, but a stupid cost cutting move. I was told this was also "normal". I wonder when this happened.
Last and least; the configuratble gauges above the steering wheel are not sticky. Switching boost for transmission temperature seems to be a great alternative when towing, but it has to be changed every time the vehicle is started.
Full disclosure, I took the truck to a local (close) dealer, not the one where we bought the vehicle. Probably need to make the 45 minute trip and let them take a shot.
Thanks for comments/feedback.
