Driving mode selection at startup

[birrclan]

When driving in eco mode, when I turn the vehicle off and then return to start up, an option to stay in eco mode pops up on the dash with a yes or no. If I use the right steering wheel selector, it doesn’t move far enough over to make one of those selections and then reverts back to normal mode. Anyone experienced this or is there another way to make the selection?

Don’t drive in eco mode

I'm assuming whatever mode you choose to drive in other than normal will produce the same option to resume. I'm guessing there's a software glitch preventing the ability to make a selection with the steering wheel control. would be infested to see if anyone else has tried it.

Perhaps make an appointment with your salesperson and see if they know the answer - or the service department?

We drive in Eco mode occasionally and have never seen this. Our Expy always starts in Normal mode.

It might help people answer if you told us the trim level of your Expedition.

Platinum trim

Can any 25 expy owner confirm you are able to start/select the drive mode you were previously in after a new engine cycle? 24s and below this was not doable.

On mine, at start up, a screen pops up with a yes or no option to keep the mode in the last used mode. Initially its hidden by the seat belt warning but when that disappears, you see it but there is no way to navigate the selector to a position to make a selection. Then it disappears.

This occurs in my Tremor as well. Message pops up to stay in Sport but won't allow me to select it and reverts to Normal mode but leaves transfer case in 4A.

SW bug..

It works for me. You have to select Up Arrow then OK. If you slip up, you can miss the window and it disappears. I wish it could just start up in SPORT mode.

I've seen the same thing, but not consistently. Time to try and make it show up.... Drive in SPORT/ECO/TOW....Stop, turn off, open door (to trick truck), get back in, seatbelt, THEN start - and see what happens.

Use the LEFT side steering wheel buttons. Verified this AM
