On a side note, wheel locks are almost useless. I’ve watched a bunch of videos where they get them off in seconds. Barely harder than a standard lug nut. They might prevent a casual thief and make them move to the next car, but pros won’t care one bit. This set in particular can be removed...
Unfortunately I don’t see a separate part number for the knob. Only the entire screen + knob is available online. It would be worth it to check with your local Ford parts department.
This will not show in your software updates in the Ford App if it was done at the dealer using FDRS. Only OTA updates show there. What WILL change is that after a period of time (1-14 days, depends on how often the dealer sends completed recall notices to Ford) you’ll no longer see the recall...
Most EVs are advanced cars. You’ve covered the major items. My daughter is a year from starting to drive an we are going through the same. She’s learning on a 2017 Honda Pilot that will be her daily when time comes. I’ve gone back and forth with teaching her how to drive the pony. It’s a...

I’ve grown a weird habit of pulling the -12V every 6 months. I’ve found it clears the “cobwebs”. Most modules are always on, and don’t ever reboot unless there is an update. I’m an IT guy. Always hard power cycle things every so often. It solved something twice in two and a half years. Like...
