    3rd row seat not folding

    Are you trying this with the car off? One time, mine didn't go down until I started the engine and then it worked. It could be a weak 12V battery.

    Battery Life PSA

    FordPass App reports car going into PowerSave Mode. Same for Owner's Dashboard on Ford.com website. You lose Vehicle Location and other functions of the App. Just hook up the weak battery to a tender when parked. All functions return to Normal when battery returns to fully charged state.

    Help, I don’t want to have to get rid of!

    So, you're saying you press the hard brake pedal and press the power button, but all you get is battery on, not crank? As if you pressed the power button without touching the brake pedal? With the car at dealer, these suggestions will not do you any good, but: when you press the brake pedal, do...

    Battery or other question

    I don't think you said how old your car/battery was, but mine is a 2020, so 4 years on the original battery. We bought it December 2022 and my battery started doing this power save thing the day I purchased it. At first I didn't bother because it always started without any hesitation. The only...

    Edmunds Comparison

    A lot of this comes down to brand loyalty. We rode in a long wheelbase GMC Yukon(?) and I thought the ride was awful. At the time, Jeep only had the standard wheelbase, though I think that's corrected now.

    2019 New Owner Questions

    How many miles on her? Just change the rear diff lube. Have you tried drive mode gravel/grass/snow to see if there's a whine from the front diff too? In this mode, the front diff is always providing torque to the fronts. You can see it if you go to the off-road power distribution display.

    No complaints

    My first Ford was a 2001 Excursion 7.3 diesel. It rode like a buckboard. My first Expy was a used 2015 EL Limited 4x4 Towing with 110K miles. It was beat to sh*t and rode like it, bouncing like a roller coaster literally throwing passengers out of their seats! Traded it on our current 2020 MAX...

    Smaller Wheels for Softer Ride

    I live at 7,000 feet on the Palmer Divide and we got 14 inches yesterday! I have the factory 20's on mine and bought four new Kumho Crugen HT51 All-Season with 3-Peak Snowflake rating last summer. I never do off-road, but need good winter traction as our streets are in shade and keep ice until...

    Auto Start Stop Damage turbo's?

    On my car, if I don't keep the battery on a trickle charger, the AS/S will not engage due to battery charging. My drives are short, less than 20 miles one-way so driving never fully charges the battery. Kind of a poor man's AS/S delete!

    Glass lift gate unlatches sporadically

    Physical latch adjustment is out of whack. When you close the lift gate, is it snugly fitting with no movement? Perhaps it has been slammed a few times causing adjustment to go out of spec.

    I don't own one, but apparently Tesla already removed the physical shifter from their new Model S and X,

    Dial Shifter - Let Me Vent!

    I'll tell you what I like about the new shifter: because there's no physical connection between the shifter and the tranny, you don't have to move to P when you stop. Just stop the car with the brake pedal and press the Power button to shut off the engine. Voila, the system switches to P...

    2019 Expo XLT sways all over the place after hitting bumps

    Perhaps your car was in an undisclosed wreck that damaged the suspension/frame. My 2020 MAX Limited with 76K miles is stable as a rock. Couldn't be happier with stability and ride.
