    USB ports - 2017 Limited

    I have found some discussion about the USB ports but I still need to ask. 1. I see reference to a fuse or 2 of them? where do I look? Is there a #fuse to look for? 2. The 'blue' light that surrounds them is 'on' but I can't seem to get them to function? What is baffling is they were working...

    I am looking for a 2023 or 2024 Expedition or Navigator. I really need the 2nd row seating be 'bench' but that is a Very Rare find. Has anyone tried to put a cushion or something between the captain seats to imitate a bench seat setup?

    Hello, I see that Ford keeps pushing forward when they will attend to the Blower Motor Recall.

    Had to replace rear shocks in the strut

    My 2017 Limited that I bought new in October of 2017, the rear 'shocks' in the struts went bad. My vehicle is 3 1/2 years old? Just shy of 60,000 miles. And the SHOCKS go bad? I think this is a first for me. I've had many vehicle's in my life time (I'm in my 70's) and maybe I've had to...

    Tires needed..............Highway mostly driven

    Snyc3 email

    Hello, A week or so ago I received an email from Ford/Sync3 about a Snyc3 update. Something about WAZE and other things. I followed the links and did all of the 'click here' routines and ended up with NO UPDATES AVAILABLE. I see someone posted similar inquiry on the 2018 and newer forum...

    Wiper Blade for 2017 model

    I did a search and did not really find an answer for my question I am now posting. The front wiper blades on the 2017 when new seemed to work pretty well. Yes, the 'contact' on the passenger side was odd, to me, that the end of the wiper did not contact the glass. But, the glass is curved so...

    Tire pressure

    My vehicle states on the tag/sticker that my tires air pressure should be 35lbs. I've always kept it at that. A while back the Ford dealer did my one and only 'free' oil change and whatever else they do. Admittedly I had not checked my air pressure due to the tires having 'nitrogen' so...
