    Please help me find this part

    Had the same thing happen to me pretty much 5 months after I got it. Even worse my friend did it when I was helping him load a spontaneous purchase he made. Something about someone breaking your shit that makes it more annoying than breaking it yourself. I broke the little side and luckily one...

    Phaser cam

    Has your truck been at Ford for 6months or you have been waiting for them to call you to let you know the parts are in for 6 months?

    2022 Limited Max - can’t handle the bumps?

    I shopped the Escalade and the Yukon Denali. I did so just to check out the technology. The Denali was my fave looks wise but it felt like it lacked power. My favorite was the crisp rear view cam mirror. The Cadi was great looking in the front rows, then turns in to a cheap Tahoe for the 2nd...

    TSB 22-2145 - Certain 2018-2021 Expedition & Navigator, Built On Or Before April 29, 2021, + Other Models - Momentary Neutral-Out Condition In Drive

    This has been an issue on the F150 since the 10 speeds came out over 5 years, this is actually great news because they are finally getting closer to getting rid of this problem. I’ve had 7 trucks and now this Exp and only had 1 truck do this. No manufacturer is perfect, even Toyota. P.S. I...

    Going in for laundry list of issues, is this normal?

    Coolant leaves a white residue behind when it dries. You stated there was also dye in the system. I’m going to guess your selling dealer did a coolant exchange and used a wrong coolant to water ratio when refilling it using more water than required.

    So roughly 1/2 gallon every 5k miles?

    Going in for laundry list of issues, is this normal?

    1-1.5 is excessive especially for carpooling. Unless your mom is a huge Ricky Bobby fan there may be an issue. Keep track of the miles date and quantity of coolant added. I have seen 1-2 vehicles that purged themselves through a gallon of coolant before we (dealer) finally stopped adding...

    Going in for laundry list of issues, is this normal?

    Personally, if you didn’t complain about the cam phasers I would not let them do it. It could be a tech taking advantage that ford will just replace. I used to be a Service Manager/Director for Ford and I caught some techs doing this. Several times causing the customer to come back complaining...

    When to trade in?

    I personally get rid of my vehicles between 36-50k miles. Which is almost ever 1.5-2 years. It’s always worked great for me.

    2019 Platinum tow setup with enclosed car hauler

    Definitely hold on to it! Didn’t realize is was soo much Porsche, always thought of it as a VW on steroids borrowing parts from Audi. Have my eyes set on a Bentayga Speed my dealer is set to get in sometime between October and December. Dealer already agreed no more than MSRP if I like it.

    Who had success with dealership dealing with turbo rattle?

    I’m really sorry that you had to go through this crap experience. I too spent countless hours on the phone with customer care. Sucks that you got customer care reps over seas, I have always been lucky and gotten people state side. I agree paying 85k+ plus for a vehicle manufacturers should be...

    Who had success with dealership dealing with turbo rattle?

    I’m a car guy. I currently own 2 GM vehicles, 2 Ford’s, a new Toyota and a new MB. Looking for a special Nissan but might wait since used prices are still nuts. I get A plan pricing, if it wasn’t for that I probably would own more GMC’s or more German cars.

    Mahogany Interior Pictures!

    I can almost guarantee that you will be 100% satisfied when you see the color in person! I’m jealous they aren’t do that on the Platinums! Not that there is anything wrong with limited models, but I’m on a 15-16 Platinum model streak I just don’t want to break it. Im ashamed of my obsession. I’m...

    Who had success with dealership dealing with turbo rattle?

    Almost Anything done at a Ford dealer has a 24/unlimited mileage warranty. If you’re needing cam phasers done that frequently then there is something else going on, more than likely dealer related not Ford. Ford will fix those issues even after they have sent out that letter, especially if you...
