FWIW I tried using a black Sharpie and - surprise! - it actually shows as a dark brown when next to the black plastic.

Looks like I'm getting some great suggestions. Thanks, everyone!

Excellent, MDPE - thanks for that!

I've used 303 for a mix of boat and RV purposes...but IME it's value is to serve as a UV blocker. Restoring whited spots back to black isn't its 'thing', I would expect. Eskram, has your experience been different?

My 2021 F150 uses a fair bit of (some kind of) plastic, especially trimming out the top of the bed sides, the frontal area, and here and there elsewhere. White splotches appear randomly on these pieces and the few products I've tried don't work well. I'd welcome suggestions on how to keep the...

Re: my query about no Blue Cruise nav planning capability, I was promised a reply to my Case Number one week ago, but still have not heard from Ford's 'special features' rep in the marketing department. Apparently not a concern of Ford's that we can't plan trips to take advantage of the BC...

Ditto with Snakebitten, Wheaties. The power pole breaker at the RV Park and the F150's 120V 30A breaker share the same design limits. They may behave differently for a variety of reasons including the age of that RV Park breaker. But as Snakebitten concludes....it's simply math and 30A is...

FWIW here's an update based on my calls today: -- Ford.com's chat feature offers a 'navigation' category. I contacted them and they were clueless about BC generally and the specific aspect of this thread, namely a detailed BC map. They passed me on to "Marketing" -- As you can imagine, after...

In my personal and also professional lives, I've never seen a purchase contract for a capital equipment item where what was included in the contract was not required to be delivered as specified. Penalty clauses enforce this protection for both sides. Yet there are no (direct) consequences to...

My F150 Powerboost is now one year old...and remains without OTA since new. My 4th dealer appointment to resolve this is next week and I lack any confidence in them. Ford got my $1K BlueCruise money; I have nothing to show for it. I remain tremendously impressed with the truck, and remain...

Ken, as Bruce pointed out (above), you seem to have the classic symptoms for OTA failure. I finished Dealer visit #3 today to deal with this problem - 4 days in the shop! -and they proudly announced I had OTA capability. I got in the car and found it wasn't working. How this kind of...

Cool Rod, my experience may answer your question. My truck was caught up in the 'insulation vs. drive shaft' recall and, sure enough, my drive shaft was scored and deemed undriveable. The dealer stated their policy, when they impound a vehicle from further use, was a max of 3 days for covering...

I'm still w-a-y back on 1.4 with a May 2021 Powerboost. Been to the dealer twice for an OTA fix, at their invitation, only to get no fix. No hint - from Ford or the dealer - about the dealer uploading Bluecruise, as promised some time ago by Ford. My question: What other ways exist for...

Terry (TNKIRK) I think you are stuck in the same loop I am. My dealer has received two USB drives or flash drives with the 'fix it' software which, at least in my case and apparently yours, doesn't fix the bugs imbedded in our Sync4 software. Take a look at the TSB posted just a few posts...
