    Transmission issue - 2019

    Agreed. We had the cam phaser issue too about 5K miles ago. Luckily, it was still under warranty. Just figure how many people get stuck with these two major repairs after the warranty is expired.

    Transmission issue - 2019

    The dealer ended up offering to cover 60%, so it's going to cost $4400. At least it's not $10K, but still not happy about putting that much money into an SUV with 60K miles. Might be a good reason to not get a Ford next time around. Though many MFG's haven't been reliable within the last 5+ years.

    Transmission issue - 2019

    Dropped it off at the dealer Wednesday. They called today and said it does need a new trans. Since the warranty just barely expired (I think 61K), they are trying to get it approved for warranty work. I assume they will tell us to pound sand. Probably look around for an independent trans shop.

    Wife's 2019 Limited - She had issues with the transmission today on 1 hour round trip drive. She was heading home on the freeway and it was seemingly stuck in Neutral and wouldn't move right away. She braked and started to pull off and then it corrected itself. Appointment to take it in to the...

    Tire recommendations for 22"

    Ended up buying her Cooper Discoverer HTP II. Never had these before, but they were priced decent at the time. I had Coooper Discoverer STT Pro on my Jeep and those were wearing well and ride smoothly.

    Tire recommendations for 22"

    My wife still hasn't bought tires lol. I was looking at the Black Friday specials and saw these at Walmart. Seem really good for the price, $155 each. 60K warranty. Anyone try these? I read that Walmart has exclusive rights to some of the Cooper models. They didn't have what I want for my Ram...

    Tire recommendations for 22"

    Well she did kill one of her tires in her previous car by mis-judging where a curb was while going into a parking lot. So rim protection sounds like a good idea.

    Tire recommendations for 22"

    From searching on here, the Pirelli and Michelin appear to be the most popular. I have a Ram 1500 and the Michelin are a popular replacement as well.

    Tire recommendations for 22"

    Looking for tire recommendations for my wife's 2019 Expedition. It has the OEM 285/45/22 which have lasted about 55K miles so far. No real complaints. Street driving in CA, some rain but never snow. Figure if I don't stop her, my wife would go to the tire shop and by the cheapest China special...

    Noise on cold start

    What's wrong with the thermostat? It's my wife's Expedition and she's very cheap lol. Doubt she would do it unless there's a really good reason.

    Noise on cold start

    Dealer confirmed cam phasers. It will be about a week to get the part in. Picking it up today until parts are in.

    Noise on cold start

    Dropping it off late tomorrow. They want it to be cold for the morning, makes sense.
