2021 question

[THOMAS F Smith]

I just picked up my 2021 Expedition max and I noticed that there was no engine cover on it. I called the dealer and they check the 3 others on the lot and none had it. It seems wired that the clips are there for the cover but the stopped putting it on in 21? I also noticed that the dashboard does not display the transmission gears and current gear. Does anyone with a 21 have the same issues?


Thanks Tom

Hit the ‘+’ to get the gears to show up.

By default the transmission gears aren’t displayed. Press the “+” button by the drive selector on the center console and that’ll make the gear display appear on the dash.

My 2021 doesn’t have a cover either.

With this cost cutting, I think in 10 years we will be paying extra for tires!

It could also be a supply chain issue, like the plastic piece under the roof rails for some 2019’s.

When you say engine cover, are you referring to the plastic cover under the hood over the engine, or the splash guard thing under the engine?

Thanks for the gear display tip.... I asked the dealer and none on the lot had it, They were trying to check to see if it was a supply issue. I looked it up online and its 70.00 for the part...it looks like sh*t without it so i guess im buying it....ts

I ‘d bet someone hit their lot and they have missing parts. The engine cover on my 19 is a high temp Foam it’s part of the noise management aspect of the vehicle. I highly doubt it left the factory without it. Someone pilfered it between the factory and you buying it.
