  1. Cracked Top Window

    This isn't necessarily true. I've only had two claims in the last 7 years. One was approx $35-40 for a glass chip repair on my Fiesta, and the other was windshield replacement on the Mach-E in 2022, which was around $1,200 through Safelite but fully covered through my $0 full glass comprehensive...

  2. Intermittent error: "Adaptive Cruise Control Predictive Speed Assist not available."

    The surround view camera is just below the front lip of the hood while the camera used for blue cruise is between the windshield glass and the center mirror. I understand your frustration completely. The costs for diagnostics and repairs that may-or-may-not fix symptoms are insanely high.

  3. Tire mobility kit refill

    From Slime's web site, and I think maybe in our owner manuals, too: For emergency use only! Slime's Emergency Tire Sealant is designed as a temporary formula in passenger vehicles and must be removed within 3 days or 100 miles.

  4. Should I Get the Tire Mobility Kit?

    Correct, but mine is past those limits. I considered buying roadside assistance from insurance, but their pricing is high especially when considering that they'll penalize me in future premiums if I actually use the assistance. AAA also seems a little high for coverage I may never use. So then I...

  5. Should I Get the Tire Mobility Kit?

    Why not this option? 3. Call and pay for roadside assistance when needed. (Without membership.)

  6. Tire Mobility Kit question

    Take heed of the post directly after the one you quoted. That Slime canister looks the same but when you stack them side by side, it's a bit taller. Enough so that it will not fit in your existing tire inflator kit. You could try replacing the content of the old canister with the new one...

  7. SYNC 26.2.1.6.5.2 OTA Update Installed

    Yessir

  8. SYNC 26.2.1.6.5.2 OTA Update Installed

    Haha, ask and I shall receive lol! It was nice to see things download while driving to work.

  9. SYNC 26.2.1.6.5.2 OTA Update Installed

    Great news! Fingers crossed that MY21 Job 1 gets sync fixes soon.

  10. 24U14 AUDIO CONTROL MODULE ACM SOFTWARE UPDATE

    That seems unlikely. The ACM is just a relatively dumb sound processor (Ford sometimes calls it the Digital Signal Processor). It's one of the few components in our vehicles that doesn't support over the air updates. Meanwhile SYNC is the software for the touchscreen display and it is...

  11. 24U14 AUDIO CONTROL MODULE ACM SOFTWARE UPDATE

    It's an "audio off" bugfix for the audio module on some 2024s. Not a safety recall, but an annoying issue nonetheless: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2025/MC-11016352-0001.pdf

  12. Ford Rewards Visa Signature card -- cashback strategies for Mach-E buyers

    Yes for your situation, with the ongoing Connected Services purchases, it could make more sense than other cards. I don't subscribe to Navigation or the AT&T hotspot because I'm using my phone's navigation and traffic/congestion reporting. If the Robinhood card were truly cost free for 3%...

  13. Ford Rewards Visa Signature card -- cashback strategies for Mach-E buyers

    Last year Ford shutdown the previous FordPass Rewards Visa program and this month they announced its replacement, Ford Rewards Visa Signature. Ford's partner this time is Comenity Bank. As before, there is no annual fee. It's U.S. only. There is exactly one pure cashback opportunity, a $100...

  14. Driver door locked while key fob inside car

    I recommend setting a pin code for the driver door so you can always get in. Or memorize the preset factory code.

  15. 2026 Mach-E underhood photo with no Frunk.

    I suppose the "no luggage" sticker is Ford's way of eliminating the legal requirement for a kidnapee release pull tag.
