I wouldn’t wait to long on the AC. People are saying that part is backordered for months. I was lucky to one of the first to get it fixed before the backlog.
Back to 0. Dealership got Ford involved and they ran tests and acknowledge the noise. After 4 days they say this is a "normal characteristic of the truck". Ford has closed the case. They say the finance manager at the dealership has the same truck and it makes it as well.....
Also the dealership has my truck for another 4 days this week for more testing. They acknowledge the sound isn't right but don't know what it is or why it's making it.
I'm totally OK with the pedestrian warning system, electric motors, regenerative breaking sounds. What I'm not OK with is my "upgraded" stereo sounding like a 1980 ford with a bad alternator causing ground loop like noise. I've been in the lightning and other Hybrids and none make this noise.
I just pulled the wires off the amp in the back seat and fuse 15 for the SYNC system and the sound is still there. Maybe the amp for the pillar speakers is on a different fuse but 15 killed the screen just didn't stop the sound.
I have a thread going on the facebook group as well. A user there says the front pillar speakers and rear door speakers on the unleashed are direct from the head unit. The other speakers are on the amp in the backseat. I pulled the connections off the backseat amp and the noise continued. So...
Identical to my issue. Driving me NUTS. Still no answers from Ford. I'm also wondering if its platinum related since mine is one as well with a B&O unleashed.
