SSM 49650 - 2021 F-150 - Fog Lights Flashing When Auto High Beam Control Is Turned On
Some 2021 F-150 vehicles equipped with automatic high beam control may experience the fog lamps flashing when the automatic high beam control feature is turned on, the fog lights are turned on and the vehicle...
Anyone else notice the exterior door lock buttons are stiff and not very user friendly? They seem to take a lot more pressure to lock the truck than I’d expect.
I noticed on my platinum that I have what appears to be some rattling or creaking coming from both front doors. At first I thought it was the door sales, so I put some Krytox on them, but that didn't change anything. Today I pulled off the triangular trim pieces at the front of each door and...

Some 2021 Mustang Mach-E/F-150/Edge/Nautilus vehicles may require a reboot of the SYNC 4 system.
For vehicles equipped with a volume/power and right seek button, press and hold both the volume/power and right seek button for 10 seconds and the system will reboot.

I thought I'd start a thread to see what people thought of the shift characteristics of the 10R80 in the 2021 F150.
My general feedback is that at nearly 300 miles, it's considerably improved from my prior 2018 F150 FX4 with the 3.5L and 10R80. Here's where I feel it excels:
1. Cold shift...
Some 2021 F-150 vehicles equipped with zone lighting may exhibit a key off battery drain when the zone lighting power button is left enabled in the SYNC4 display or FordPass app. Inform the customer that Ford is investigating potential causes of battery drain. To reduce the risk of a battery...
With all of the tech in this truck and so much to monitor, why did Ford not install a basic heads up display? My 18 had the flashing red light on the dash for the driver assistance, then they removed that for the 19. It just seems like a great optional item or something to charge a bit more...
Some 2021 F-150 vehicles may experience intermittent remote commands from the FordPass mobile app. Intermittent command behavior may also lead the customer to believe there is no cellular signal or coverage. FordPass mobile app commands may become operative again after starting the vehicle with...
Some 2021 F-150 vehicles built on or before 29-Jan-2021 and equipped with a console gear shift lever may exhibit a condition where the gear shift lever is unable to come out of the park position. Some vehicles may also exhibit the gear shift lever stow function is delayed or inoperative. This...
Some 2021 F-150 vehicles may experience the anti-theft intrusion alarm system activating when there is no evidence of an intrusion. This may be due to the intrusion alarm system sensing vibrations that are characteristic to other vehicle systems. To correct the condition, update the body control...
Pedestrian Alert System - Overview
Overview
Due to the quiet nature of vehicles operating in electric mode, pedestrians may not be aware of the presence and operation of the vehicle, thus risking potential injury to pedestrains. The pedestrian alert system provides an audible sound from a...
So a week ago I wasn't thinking about a new F150 and a week later I brought one home last night. Picked up a fully loaded Powerboost Platinum with all options in Star White. I traded in my 2018 F150 Lariat SE FX4 which was fully loaded as well. The tech improvements and this powertrain...
