    I'm guessing this had been mentioned before on another thread, but it's worth repeating. There is a video series on YouTube by an attorney named Steve Lehto. He specializes in Lemon Law and related vehicle law (among others). He has a video called "Why The Dealer Doesn't Care If Your New Car...

    '14 5.4 oil question.

    A good "oil" thread with lots of information: https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/what-oil-filter-do-you-use.30956/

    '14 5.4 oil question.

    I've used full synthetic since day one in my 2014, no issues. Almost 80k.

    Engine warm up

    If letting your car idle for 15 minutes was harmful, they wouldn't sell remote start as a feature. The articles also don't address the items others have mentioned, warming the plastic components in the engine bay, etc. In this day and age, it's difficult to know the agenda behind some of what...

    Engine warm up

    I don't know where in New York you are, but I heard on The Weather Channel that Syracuse, NY gets more snow than any other city in the United States! I think I'd be "investing" in a garage... :cheers:

    Really Ford, WTF!!!

    Years ago in the mid 2000s, XM offered a "lifetime" membership. It was several hundred dollars and had transfer restrictions. But, if you purchased it the subscription will run for a "lifetime", regardless of who buys the radio. Even though it was expensive it was actually a great deal, which...

    110v outlet and rear heated seats linked?

    On our 2014, the manual says rear heated seats are fuse no. 18 in the "passenger compartment fuse panel", and the 110v a/c power point is fuse #33 in the "power distribution box". Not sure if it's the same in the 2012, but it doesn't look like they share a fuse.

    Really Ford, WTF!!!

    If the dealer you purchased it from doesn't satisfactorily address the issue, be sure to leave reviews on any websites you can. Our local dealer calls everyone that leaves a bad review to see what they can do to fix the issue, to have the review removed or updated. On the other hand, if they...

    HomeLink Garage Opener Button - nothing works.

    I was just wondering the same thing. If it is, I could never get it to work either. Still just use the remote, easy enough.

    4WD + snow tires?

    I think you need snow tires. I'd take a two wheel drive with good snow tires over a four wheel drive with all-season tires.

    Engine warm up

    I didn't understand it that way. The original post states "when it is cold, well below freezing". I think he's responding to what he does in this type of weather.

    This is probably the most accurate description of Ford service I've ever read.

    New battery, but still won't start on 2000 EB 5.4

    Just thinking; if it's the starter, why would it start with the jump pack? Did you check the voltage of the battery you purchased at Wal-Mart?

    Stiff Shift

    I have to say, based on the posts I've read about people's experiences with their dealer, I'm hesitant to take it there. It's not just Ford, other dealers are the same if you read other forums. It seems like they don't know what they're doing, and don't seem to even care. The reviews on the...

    Stiff Shift

    Also, would you take it to the dealership, an indy shop, or a transmission shop to have it looked at? Not crazy about our local dealer...

    Stiff Shift

    No incline, it feels the same way all the time, regardless of where the truck is. If I cycle through a couple of times from Park to 3, it feels normal for a short period of time, then it's back to being stiff. But you almost have to force it...

    Stiff Shift

    Just noticed something weird... When shifting from "park" to "drive", there is resistance that wasn't there previously. Once in "drive", there is even more resistance if I try to shift into the numbered gears, 1, 2, 3. I never shift into those gears, but did so in the driveway just to move the...

    What’s with these dealers?

    It's under the category "general discussion". Move along if you don't want to read it.

    E85 in 5.4 14'

    We've used it many times. No doubt the MPG declines, but my manual calculation showed it didn't decline nearly as much as the computer said it did. For some reason the calculation for that first tank seems to always be off. It's so much less expensive, we get it when we can find it. Also...

    Dual battery ecoboost? I have the 2016 EL

    Not sure if this helps, but we've had an Optima Yellow top battery for four years. Dash cam runs 24/7. We've never had a dead battery or hard start, even if we don't drive it for a week. In my opinion these batteries are great.

    Looking for some suggestions, think we need a new one.

    Just curious, did you call the police? This is probably something they could solve fairly quickly, especially if you have a suspect in mind. Surely a camp ground keeps a log of who was there and when, possibly even a camera or two? They should be more than eager to help.

    Lost my Brakes!!!!! Waiting for Ford Roadside Assistance now!!!!

    Has there ever been an example of the BBB helping? Who pays them? I've never understood what they actually do.
