    Auto start stop

    Yes. Every time. On my 2018 Max Limited, it used to be almost seamless. I could hardly tell until I glanced at the tachometer and saw zero RPM. The restart would cause a shudder or vibration, but it was not annoying. Earlier this year it stopped working; it did not work at all. I traced...

    CarPlay connectivity issue, replace the USB ports?

    Good advice. Thanks. I installed a new USB hub today. The lady at the Ford parts counter did not ask for a VIN. She just needed to know that it was for an '18 Expedition. That tells me that this module is universal for all '18s. The part number is HC3Z-19A387-H. Cost = $60; easy install...

    CarPlay connectivity issue, replace the USB ports?

    My '18 Max Limited (56k) began life as a rental. The charging pad works fine, but neither of the front USB ports work. Blowing them with compressed air and cleaning with rubbing alcohol did nothing. i suppose somebody could have spilled something and fried them. I think the USB module is...

    Think wheel bearings are starting to fail

    The front bearings on my '18 Max (50k) started moaning, so I ordered 2 bearings, waited a week, then talked to the service rep. They replaced both bearings with only one day down time. Shout out to Hollingsworth Ford in Baton Rouge for the quick turnaround.

    SYNC Update?

    Loki, thanks for responding. I will search appropriate YouTube videos. As an update, after trying the install the map update and apparently failing, I removed the thumb drive and returned it to the case that Ford sent me. Now I repeatedly get a message on the screen asking me to please remove...

    SYNC Update?

    I have charged my phone using the rear USBs and that works fine. I also have charged my phone on the charging pad; works fine. I cannot use the front USBs to charge my phone. That is why I suspected that the front USBs were data only. Upon reading the instructions that came with my SYNC 3.0...

    Distance to empty keeps shrinking

    My '18 Max (56k) does the same thing. Not only does the DTE drop, but the average fuel mileage drops as well. I get 26-27 on highway trips, but it has dropped to 13-14 when I have a long spell of short trips with nasty traffic. I believe it is just simple math.

    SYNC Update?

    2018 Expe Max Limited (55k): I bought a Sync 3.0 Map Upgrade through the Ford website. It is a thumb drive that is supposed to be installed using the front USB ports, which I assume are data only. The thumb drive shows a blue light for about one second, then nothing happens. I took the...

    PCM software recall

    I had the cam phaser reprogram done last week. So far it appears to have quieted the motor upon cold start. The dealer did not return my customer satisfaction letter. I would appreciate it if one of you could post a PDF of the letter. Thanks.

    21B10, 21N08, 21N03 Forscan?

    My 2018 Expy (55K) had the 21N03 done last week and so far It appears to have corrected the cam phaser rattle on cold start. However, I had other issues. While reviewing elsewhere on this site, I read that sometimes the side view mirrors can't seem to find the right setting so they click...

    Android auto problem

    I have been following this thread and am pretty lost. For my '18 EX Max Limited (53K), I ordered a Nav update from Ford. The instructions said to insert their thumb drive into one of the front USB ports. Nothing happened. I have a USB charging cord that lights up when powered. If I plug it...

    Drivetrain growl

    Shout out to Hollingsworth-Richards Ford in Baton Rouge. My 2018 Ex-Max (53K) was growling. They replaced both front wheel bearings under the power train warranty (expires at 60K). They tried to convince me to have the front brakes serviced (I suppose they hoped I would agree to pay for...

    Transmission overheating after service

    John, I believe I read that your auto start/stop was acting up. Has the work done so far cleared that issue? My 2018 Max Limited has about 53K. Dealer just replaced both front wheel bearings under power train warranty. I rarely tow, so temp has not been an issue. Start/stop works very...

    Charcoal Gray Max in Baton Rouge, LA. 2018 52K starting to show some electrical issues. My initial sign in to forum.

    I purchased a SYNC Map Update. It arrived as a USB thumb drive. The instructions say to plug it into the USB port. Now I have determined that both USBs located by the charging pad do not work. How can i diagnose this problem??
