Yeah, perhaps you're right. The app was showing recline at 230. When it put me in Limp mode though I checked under the hood and you could smell how hot it was.
The fact that the dash guage wasn't showing the elevated temp was a little weird.
Just have to wait for the part to get in, whenever...
That could be as on the dash Temps seem normal but I had an obd scanner and app that was showing red line Temps of 220° and it is definitely overheating.
So my 2022 powerboost is now in the shop waiting on a heat exchanger. Much like many others.
Had the code pop up and checked out and was told it wouldn't effect drive ability but guess what?
It did. Truck started overheating and the auto shutters on the front remained closed. Had to stop by...
Well,
Picked up the new Powerboost last week and I absolutely love it.
Bought a few add ons for it to add a personal touch and a different look.
I added matte black window visors and hood protector along with the matte black letter inserts in the tailgate.
I had the dealer add a tonneau...
Ford offers some options and they bundle them to save some money. I got 5y/100000 bumper to bumper warranty and maintenance package with a tire/wheel/paint protection package for 7500.
Any tire is covered, wheel damage and they will repair scratches (under a foot long), pull dents and dings and...
Just get a forscan unit from Amazon. They are 30 bucks and can do a whole lot of stuff. Bambi mode, disable honks and chimes, turnnup the brightness of your DRLs, have your fogs running with DRLs, allow you to use the cameras while driving, allow navigation input while driving and on and on......
When I went in to pick up the truck on Thursday it wasn't ready as they received a bulletin about an instrument panel update that took a few hours to complete.
Because I was leaving on a camping trip and needed a truck to haul it and some other gear they loaned me a 2021 f150 so I could still...
Not sure. Ended up having to take a loaner due to delays with updates etc. which was just as well because Ford reccomends not towing during the break in period (1600 kms)
I'll find out in a couple weeks as we're heading down to Drumheller for the weekend.
How's your truck working out for you?
Picked up my new Powerboost today and I am seriously impressed!
Got a loaner for the weekend which was a Lariat,which had a few more options (ventilated seats, power fold mirrors, adaptive cruise etc.) but still I'm impressed with my XLT.
Not a fan of leather and the cloth seats in my truck...
I had the dealer remove the XTR stickers and not put any dealer stickers on my new PB. You'd think ford would use badges instead (my 2019 sierra x31 had badges on it.)
The stickers just look cheap and a $80000 truck should not look cheap.
I prefer the clean look and the red stickers stick out...
How likely is it to happen though, how often do other similar batteries fail?
They used to say the same thing about the turbos on the EB but how often did those fail?
Other things can fail out of warranty as well, transmissions, engines, electronics etc. Running anything after warranty has its...
