  7. Phantom Battery Drain

    Ended up a bad battery. Because similar happened about 8 months ago, with no real known cause and a software update seemed to fix it then, we suspected something other then the battery this time around. Had this been the first incident of a drained battery we would have suspected the battery...

    Dealer just called .... they replaced the original battery but claim, which I question?, that the Garmin dashcam was draining the battery? it shuts down when the truck is off.

  14. Pro Trailer Assist

    Agreed ... Used the stickers with our 2018. We did use feature on empty skidoo, small boat trailers and PWC trailers, just can't see them to backup. Now our 2021 only works with a sensor. We aren't going out buying sensors at $300 a pop so might as well delete the Pro Trailer Backup feature from...

    Got my truck back Tues, as of Fri. all good?? I tried both leaving a rear door "ajar" and then next leaving the drivers door wide open In both cases the interior lights, and everything from I could see, shut down after about 10 minutes, as expected. So what caused the battery to drain completely...
  19. Phantom Battery Drain

    Agreed, the literature would lead you to believe accessories like an interior light, courtesy lights, would be shutdown after a time period if left on by mistake. When we get some half way decent weather here I'm going to try things like leaving a door ajar or the glovebox open and see if in...
  20. Phantom Battery Drain

    Dealer returned my truck, the only fault registered was "Left Rear Door Open", so drained battery might have been my fault, self inflicted. Dealer did adjust the rear door latches (Super Cab) I was very impressed with Ford and the Dealer's, Cotrac, customer service Five Star all around.
