    Roof rack/ trim pieces blew off

    That is insane... we live by the Rockies and so regularly get severe wind days, but never seen anything like this. And I have a giant roof box on sometimes! As for parts... check on your trim level as some trims have black components up there, others chrome etc...

    About to change battery for first time

    I used my Noco battery charger/maintainer in 12v supply mode connected to both terminals to keep the memory saved whilst the battery was disconnected. Just don't do anything silly like trying to lock/unlock the car. You want the absolute minimum draw for the 30 seconds it takes to switch out...

    What is this ?

    Having had the wipers arms off recently, and figuring out about these alignment pins, there's almost no way under normal circumstances these could fall out by themselves. They lock into position very tightly on the arm, and then into a snug receiving slot on the wiper receiver on the vehicle...

    What is this ?

    It's the alignment key for your windshield wiper arms. They are supposed to be removed during assembly. Sometimes they are. Other times they aren't. Often they are removed and tossed onto the windshield cowl, where you found yours. Here's the shop manual entry talking about them:

    Yup, HEAVY-DUTY TRAILER TOW PKG is in there.

    For those of you who tow a travel trailer, what mirrors to pick?

    I Pull our 33ft TT all summer with the standard mirrors. Never needed anything else. Only thing I added was a camera to the back with a screen in the cab for backing up. Edit: as for blind spot, depending on your year, trim, options, and TT length, the blind spot works in towing mode once you...

    Noise coming from back door...ish

    Check the spare tire. My guess is the crank that holds it up is loose, and as you're driving the spare is swinging/vibrating/rubbing under the chassis. You could try dropping the spare out entirely and see if the noise goes away. See here: https://youtu.be/ra2dWXHfk74?si=-jSBU6lo8C8N1jka&t=132

    Am I crazy? Chime tone change.

    2020 factory battery died over Christmas. If you're in Canada, the best deal you can get is the Costco Energizer H7 AGM battery. Costs around $300 if you pick it up in store. And Costco has a 10 year warranty on it. The first 5 years are full replacement, the last 5 years are pro-rated...

    dashcams for gen4 ?

    No wires are visible. No plug to hit your knees. It’s all behind the trim panels. The odbII port is exactly where original one is. The connection to the ODBII port is concealed behind the dash panel. This is the Ford official dashcam. It comes with parts from Ford to integrate it into the vehicle.

    dashcams for gen4 ?

    I bought and installed the factory Ford Thinkware camera (rear and front). Installed myself. It plugs into the OBDII port, but it comes with a port duplicator so you still have a spare OBDII port to use. Doesn't have a screen on it - I connect to its wifi, open the app, and can get all the...

    Manual fold for third row

    Page 162 of the manual states the following. Were you thinking of that?

    Does Adjustable headrest exist?

    Our 2020 Plat has forward tilting headrests in the front too.

    Tow hitch cover?

    Primed. Painted. Top coated. Was pretty easy honestly.

    Tow hitch cover?

    Mine was stolen a few years ago. Bought a replacement, but primed and painted it myself. Was super easy. The hardest part was finding the paint colour. Went to a paint matching auto paint place and they mixed it up in an aerosol can. Looks great 2 years later.

    Poor gas milage

    Nothing to do with Google at all. Whilst I trust that you’ve done it many times, the Ford manual disagrees with you. It makes no distinction between any load type; RV, boat, or otherwise. This is what the Ford manual for your vehicle says: “You must use a weight-distributing hitch for weights...

    Poor gas milage

    I can't make one out in the photo... so just in case... you really need a WD hitch at that weight. It's stipulated as mandatory in the manual for towing more than 6000lb.

    Tire pressure parameters

    I pull a 33ft / 11ft / 8 ft travel trailer with our 2020 HD Tow up and down the Rocky mountains all summer, and I've never adjusted the tire PSI when towing. Never had problems either. The rear tires do not look squished or flat. We do have a weight distributing hitch though, that transfers...

    Tire pressure parameters

    That's only true if you are running the same dimension tires and rims the truck came with. If you sized up or down, changed to a non-standard rolling diameter etc, that sticker is meaningless and you need to find out what the new correct PSI is. If you went with another standard size (same...

    Tire pressure parameters

    As mentioned already... the max PSI on the tire sidewall is exactly that... the safe MAX PSI, not the recommended... You are absolutely driving around with drastically overinflated tires.

    Is there ANY way to have the giant screen mirror your iPhone exactly? Not with CarPlay but an exact screen mirror.

    Don't know about Android Auto, but CarPlay does not allow you to read text messages as actual text - only listen to them. Hell, half the time I ask dumbo Siri for something she tells me that's not allowed whilst driving.

    Is there ANY way to have the giant screen mirror your iPhone exactly? Not with CarPlay but an exact screen mirror.

    What exactly is it you're trying to do that CarPlay won't allow you? It comes across like the real issue isn't disconnects, but that it won't let you do unsafe things like read your text messages or watch Reels on the big screen...

    BMS bad?

    Just like OP - who kept doing it hoping for new results. Troubleshooting 101. Start at the simplest, most obvious solution, and work down the trouble tree from there.

    Fuel and water separator, where's it at?

    Crazy, but it's right there in the 2021 Expedition manual. It's mentioned twice in fact. Obviously an oversight at the technical writing office at Ford. Maybe because these come off the same Kentucky production line as the Super Duty?

    Throttle hesitation

    Another thing to try - drive it in Sport mode. This forces the truck to use every gear, and not skip any. Let us know if the hesitation goes away. If it does, it might be worth clearing the adaptive transmission tables. It could have learned a bunch of weird driving behaviour.
