Have owned my '19 Expedition Limited for about 4 weeks. I just got around to setting up/configuring my trailer over this past weekend, and towing it for the first time.

For some reason, ever since, when i turn my car on it defaults the dash view to the trailer/tow status dash, despite me switching it to the "My View" tab (far left) and the digital speedometer. As soon as i turn the car off and back on, it goes back to the trailer/tow status dash.

Before towing with a trailer this weekend, it never did this, it always defaulted to whatever dash I was on before (ie typically the digital speedometer).

Any idea why it's doing this?

Or, leave the Expy running when you unplug the trailer. Don’t ask me why it’s this way, but I have learned this from several other threads and it works. It will tell you the trailer is disconnected and hit OK and it will go back to the last screen you used. I love unhooking the chains and plug with the exhaust in my face and every so often the rear door will be in my face. Nice job Ford.
