    Tire Recommendation(s) - Texas (no snow) - 12/2023

    I did quite a bit of searching, and have a few tires noted, but hoping that someone in the southern US (or at least someone who has recently purchased tires with snow as a non-factor) can chime in. I have a '21 Premium AWD with about 26,000 miles. The tires are pretty worn (car was required to...

    Is rental only covered by warranty for 10 days?

    Try calling 866-631-3788, unfortunately their training is not top notch (or at least things are changing so quickly that they do a poor job of keeping everyone informed and on the same page) so you will get very definitive answers from reps that turn out to be completely untrue.

    Ford Connected Services Dept - how to contact

    I did a search of the forum before chatting with Ford chat (web) and eventually getting the contact phone number for Connected Services: 866-861-0420 Hoping this might be helpful to someone else doing a similar search in the future (took me nearly an hour to get to the point where the...

    Delay in shutting down of parking and rear lights

    The first part of what The Black Horse wrote is correct - I had this same issue, then realized that the car was acting as if I left the lights on (despite them being in Auto mode). Flipped to off, then back to Auto, no more people coming up to me saying that they thought I was sitting in the car...

    Does anyone else miss a paper Owner's Manual?

    I don't know how dynamic it actually ends up being (as this would obviously be based 100% on Ford keep it updated), but I'd think part of the beauty of it being digital would be the opportunity to continuously update as things change/move. For instance, I'm guessing some of the directions/steps...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    Thanks so much for the photos! The red film on the exposed side of the strip is covering adhesive, correct? Has anyone who has done this/is about to do this considered peeling it off and trying to either cover the adhesive with something more permanent than the film/or remove the adhesive...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    Nice! Did you order the shorter or longer one? When you do install, would love to see how you connect it to the (and which) wire. Once I pull the trigger I'll be sure to document as well. Thanks and good luck!

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    Ah, got it - you did mention that, I guess I missed that white=DTRLs. Your concern was pull, correct? I can't imagine that strip pulls much in addition to whatever the car already keeps on, right?

    UPDATE 85k!!!! SOH INFO

    I appreciate your post, but as an owner who has spent (and is currently spending) an inordinate amount of time trying to even get the local service dept on the phone I think you (as an EV-focused employee of a dealer) have avoided a tremendous amount of the frustration many here have gone...

    Also interested to know if this could be wired to turn on with the DTRLs (not only when the headlights are activated)? I really love how this looks and agree that I'd want it to do it's thing everytime I turn on the car - just too bad that I'd rarely see it myself, lol.

    YouTube app updated and improved

    Hoping someone can verify my understanding of in-car internet (specifically for iOS users). If you want to have the car utilize your cell phone's hotspot, you need to disable wireless CarPlay - but, if you want to use CarPlay, you can utilize the wired (plug-in) USB option (while still...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    I guess I always worry about the dealer/manufacturer looking for reasons to nullify an actual issue - say there is an issue with the latch down the line, easy to point to the additional resistance introduced by the the light strip etc. Full disclosure, I've never been a big mod guy -- so in the...

    Trunk opened on its own and hit the garage door... Come on Ford!!!

    Just to add to the reports, I have had the trunk open three separate times (in about 2 years of ownership) on it's own. I exclusively use PaaK, and do have the foot kick enabled/working. It has happened in the parking lot of a store, and twice at home (once with the car in the garage, once on...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    I guess what I was wondering is if you could get the clips somewhere where they wouldn't interact with the closing of the hood = victory. So that extra length would allow for it to close on just the strip, not the extra width of the clip(s). I do agree, however, that your 59" install make for...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    I'm wondering if the longer length option (70") would solve this - by using the extra slack to move the ends away from where the hood seats? You'd have an extra 5-1/2" on each end to "turn" it into the frunk, moving the thicker clip ends out of where the hood comes down?

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    Thanks a ton - is the thickness of the strip what contributes to the minor issue (that you described) closing the hood? I don't see a thickness listed on the product page, as I'd be curious if there are other options available that may be even just a bit thinner (and not cause any undue stress...

    Silly LED mod, but I like it... sweeping lights

    No problem, that makes sense.....can you snap a pic or two of the actual strip up close (curious how/where it is mounted (that results in the amount of visible effect you show in the video))?

    I'm Done - 2023 Powertrain & High Voltage Battery Failure

    Take this for what it's worth, as I'm neither a forum regular nor do I have a lot of expertise (compared to so many great resources here), but your behavior (and/or the way you express yourself via your posts) makes it very hard to have much sympathy for you. Many here have had incredibly...

    Thanks - I like it, too. Would you mind taking a pic or two of how/where you installed, as well as your electrical connection? Nice job!

    Different Key Fob Cover

    I finally received my second fob - after months of requesting it from the dealer's service/parts dept. I suffer with the frustration of using PaaK, so don't ever use the first fob (other than when I have to take the car (ironically) to the dealer) so the months it took to get the second one...
