  1. Interesting Developments on "Repurchased" F-150

    My 2022 F-150 Powerboost was "Repurchased" so I went to the Dealer and told her I wanted another truck like the one "Repurchased". I had a lot of trouble with my 2022 but was still impressed with the design and engineering of the truck. She said I could no longer get a 2022 but would have to...
  2. My job here is done

    I think my time with Ford trucks, which began about a year ago, has ended. My wife and I went to the Ford Dealer to buy her a Ford Edge. While there, the Sales Lady mentioned that I should look at a F-150 since she noticed I was driving a GMC Sierra. I told her that the Ford always cost much...
  3. Phone Apps

    I have read that some people are able to watch YouTube and other video on the display screen and I would like to see this happen on my screen. When I open Android Auto, I get some Apps but others do not display. How do I make an App that is on my phone appear on my Sync Screen?
  4. Powertrain Vibration --3.5 L Turboboost operation

    I am asking the community for information on the Turboboost operation. I have a 2022 Lariat with the Powerboost hybrid set up. I notice that when climbing a fairly long and steep mountain (I live in the North Carolina mountains) at about 55-mph using Cruise Control, I will periodically get a...
  5. Logistic woes of FMC - especially the Dealers

    I have a 2022 Ford Lariat that has an air conditioner that freezes up. Normally AC units freeze up due to LOW refrigerant level so I went to the dealer. He said he could "work me in" on August 2, about a month later. I met the scheduled date and still the truck sit in the Dealer's lot waiting...
  6. Nothing is Ever Easy

    I bought my 2022 Ford Lariat Powerboost this past February. In march it spent 29-days with the Dealer for the Exhaust Heat Exchanger Leak. I got it back and other problems developed. At a stop it would stay in 8th gear, the AC would freeze up and fail to work, collision warnings would sound...
  7. Such is life these days

    Drove to my Dealer this morning, August 8, and found my truck in the parking lot behind the dealer. I discovered it had not been moved since I dropped it off on August 1 for a scheduled appointment, one week just parked at the dealer. I had waited for almost a month, to August 2, to get an...
  8. Dealer Maintenance Scheduling

    Suddenly it seems that it is extremely difficult to get an "appointment" for repairs on a vehicle. I have a 2022 Lariat Powerboost that had a coolant leak two months after I bought it so I took it to the dealer where I bought it. There I am told it is not drivable, leave it, and we will try to...
  9. Articulated sensor slightly behind driver-side back axle?

    I have a 2022 Lariat Powerboost and I notice a sensor with a small articulated arm slightly behind the driver-side rear axel. Does anyone know what that device does?

    When I am in ECO mode in a 2022 Lariat, I get a little gold colored leaf symbol in the lower left corner under the tachometer. Does anyone know what this means?
  11. 2022 Powerboost Lariat Warning Sounds

    Is there a source that describes the various warning sounds that come out of the systems in the 2022 Powerboost Lariat? Today I just driving along a two-lane country road when, for maybe one second, I get a warbling and loud warning sound with no lights or other indications of a problem...
  12. 2022 Lariat 3-tone beep when door open & system off

    I have a 2022 Lariat Powerboost and just today it started giving me a 3-tone repeating warning sound when the system is off and the door open. I get no information messages or other signals. Does anyone know what this means? I have checked that with all of the doors are closed and no lights...
  13. POWERBOOST transmission stays in 8th gear at stop

    This is a Powerboost problem but Admin moved my post to "transmissions" -- but it is a POWERBOOST problem. In February 2022 I bought a F150 Powerboost Lariat. After 39-days the Exhaust Heat Exchanger failed and it was in the shop for 29-days. Today it has started staying in 8th gear when I...
  14. Transmission sticks in 8th gear when stopping at an Intersection.

    In February 2022 I bought a F150 Powerboost Lariat. After 39-days the Exhaust Heat Exchanger failed and it was in the shop for 29-days. Today it has started staying in 8th gear when I come to a stop. It takes a bit of throttle to get it moving in 8th gear until I am about half way across the...
  15. Lane Centering Hands on the Wheel

    How does the steering wheel sense hands on the wheel? My 2022 Lariat works great and I drove from Asheville to Waynesville a few nights back using "Lane Centering". Everything worked perfectly except I would occasionally get the message to put hands on the wheel but they were already there...
  16. Air conditioner operation in electric mode.

    I was visiting at the top of a very steep mountain here in western North Carolina. My trip down the mountain was 3.6 miles of Electric Operation. It was a hot day, the AC was running and I wondered what was turning the AC Compressor. Does the AC have an electric motor on the compressor?
  17. Installing Interior Work Surface?

    I was disappointed to find my 2022 Lariat came without the Interior Work Surface. I thought it was part of the 502a package and found out the hard way, it is a totally separate option. I asked my Dealer Parts Guy if I could order the Interior Work Surface lid and he said it was the impossible...
  18. Blurred Image on Instrument Panel

    I have a 2022 Lariat and I notice that sometimes the truck image on the instrument panel is blurred and sometimes it is not blurred. Does anyone understand what is happening here and why the image is sometimes blurred out?
  19. I am puzzled about people buying a vehicle from Ford Motor Company

    When I was in HS, my twin brother and I owned a 34-Ford and it was a hazard on the road. I have owned many other vehicles in the ensuing 70-years but never bought a Ford. Here in Western North Carolina I see lots of Ford trucks so I thought I would try another Ford. I bought a 2022 Powerboost...
  20. 2022 F-150 Lariat Powerboost Coolant Leak

    A week ago I was exiting I-40 when I heard a loud roaring sound from the engine compartment. I checked the gauges and saw the engine overheating. The roaring-sound was from the fans in front of the radiator. At lower speeds the fans went off and coolant temps were normal so, the next day, I...
