  1. Michelin Primacy OEM tires not holding up

    I didnt really have strong feelings about the stock tires up until they started dry rotting after less than 3 years and 11k miles. They seem to use a pretty soft rubber that grips okay, but has had some gouges and cuts in the treads. I used the graphine tire protectant from turtlewax...
  2. How long is the factory battery good for?

    I have a 2022 f150 bought new in May 2023. How long would the battery be replaced under warranty? I drove the truck about 25 miles today at noon and got a "remote features disabled to save battery warning by 5pm. I really think a battery should last more than 2yrs. Would a dealer replace it for...
  3. Ford Truck Month- Meh

    Just got the email. The ranger was laughable.

  6. HPP framed Lariat?

    I noticed my parents frame had the HPP sticker. They have max tow ccsb with the regular 3.5 lariat high built jan 2023 with the bed camera too. I thought that frame was only for hdpp XL and XLT lows? My 2.7 XLT ccsb high has the HD frame sticker.
  7. Ford Pass Rewards- GARBAGE

    I just found out they now expire instead of building perpetually, so I went to take advantage of the 25% off sale with my 10000 points. 1st, 10k points buys you basically jack shit. 2nd, their own stupid coupon code doesnt work. I was trying to get a shirt basically. 3rd, it looks like you...
  8. Pretty sure I need a new transmission after new shuddering issue

    I pretty much baby my truck, but have always had rough shifting in the lower gears when cold. I tried to fix this with a reset, which seemed to get rid of the worst jolts, but it still isnt good at all. Its usually 3-1 and 4-3 downshifts, but can pretty much be any gear relationship up or...
  9. Alarm Missing?

    I'm seeing some posts about the alarms going off and people showing alarm security settings both on the infotainment and in the app. I checked out my truck (XLT 302a) yesterday and didn't see anything alarm related in the vehicle settings on the infotainment. I checked out the app today and the...
  10. Transmission Backlog

    Im still experiencing some very hard 4th to 3rd downshifts and weird torque converter behavior after 2 table resets. I went to the quicklane at the dealership to see if fluid was low and they couldn't do it because they didn't have a master tech available. The regular dealership shop wanted to...
  11. Ford Fn Ranger-Who is this competing with?

    Looks like these are getting into hands finally. I was super excited because my wife is looking into these to replace her Cx30 which has been flawless. I like the looks, but would put it just behind the canyon for the segment. What I can't understand is the fresh EPA numbers. 1 less mpg than...
  12. 3rd Gear TC Lockup Behavior?

    Okay so my 2022 2.7 has always done this and last week's battery disconnect reset didn't change it. When accelerating slowly, the TC lockup seems to hesitate or "bounce" kinda like a manual. The truck surges when it happens. It happens at all temperatures. It doesn't happen when accelerating...
  13. Rental Ram Limited

    Aight so I just put 300 hard miles on a new Ram Limited, which truly is a very highly specd trim. The mileage is 26k. Good: 0 rattles ect smoother and quieter trans than the 10r80 the entire drivetrain is overall better from an NVH perspective good power, but much less low end grunt than the...
  14. Anyone disassemble a grinding EIWE?

    Hi guys, Anyone break down one of these sticking EIWEs? I'm trying to understand how bad the damage gets and around what mileage the failure was observed. Id imagine the grinding is leaving metal shavings at a minimum. Are they even able to be disassembled? Is there a way to check, clean, and...
  15. Black smoke on startup?

    Hey guys, I took my 2.7 120 miles Friday through the mountains to go ski, parked it until Sunday (today), started it in 13 degrees using the app (remote start on keyfob doesn't do anything) and noticed black smoke for the first 10 seconds or so, then the relatively normal white. I tried to...
  16. Kinda off topic, but wet belt related. Ford recalling the focus engines with wet belts

    Pretty interesting write up blaming RTV breaking loose and damaging the tensioner as a primary reason for belt failure. Interesting to note it looks like they're replacing the belts with a revised material...
  17. Front wheel rubbing the fiber after recall?

    Hey guys, I had a headlight recall done and didn't notice immediately, but I think they might have messed up the fiber barrier that goes in the right side wheel well just behind the bumper. I only noticed it because I'm definitely getting tire rub when at lock, which didn't happen before I don't...
  18. Door trim removal?

    Hi guys. Anyone know how to remove the decorative plastic panels on the doors? I bought some better looking replacements for my xlt that have some adhesive strips on the back. I tried using a plastic pry tool to remove the existing panels, but didn't want to break my factory ones trying to...
  19. Finally got my truck back and it has updated! Feedback mechanism!

    I just picked up my truck for the last and final round of hail repair. I noticed the backup warning sound is different. Idk what else is really new, BUT I noticed there's now the best feature in any ford Ive ever seen HANDS DOWN. A feedback mechanism! There is now a way to record and send a 45...
