Had my '23 for a month now and apart from a couple of minor quirks loving it.
1. Found that the steering wheel was slightly offset to the right when driving and the dealer adjusted it along with the tracking. Not quite perfect but if you have OCD you'd notice it
2. It wasn't until I had 700+ miles on it that I ran on the interstate only to find that above 60mph I started to feel a shimmy in the steering and through the vehicle itself. I knew about reports that the GG tires were suspect and so it went back to the dealers to be checked.
They put the tires on a road force and found 1 wheel needed a little more balance weight and 1 had weight in the wrong position, nothing wrong with the tires. Re did the tracking and alignment, steering wheel is perfect (see #1) and runs smooth and straight even at 3 digit speeds
3. The pre collision system is over cautious. Will sometimes brake relatively hard if someone pulls out in front of you way down the road if you have cruise on. Never a chance of collision but the system sometimes thinks there is.
Also 3 times pulling into my driveway (I park Infront of another car), it's jammed on the brakes to a stop thinking these going to be a collision! Found 2mph pulling into driveway is the magic number, 3+ will activate the stop
4. Rear lift gate when operated from outside will sometimes only just unlock and move 6 inches and a second button push on the lift gate required to fully open, other times will move fully open on one push. Dealer going to investigate when I can get it in next.
5. No idea how it happens but sometimes if I touch something on the sync screen, I'm thinking the main dial, if I reach for something near the cup holders or charge pad the AC goes to Max blast and Max hot! Don't need that when it's 80°+ outside!! Any thoughts????
Apart from that l love the truck and sure has some get up and go, I especially like the driving characteristic in sport mode. I think you feel the road a lot more than my previous '18 XLT. Other than the above issues money well spent IMHO.
Considering for the most part my driving is short runs getting average of 17.5mpg on the 3.73 gears isn't to bad.
23 Limited, SPP, eLSD, Sync4a, Max tow etc etc.
