There was an OTA that came out, and the Pro Hitch Assist worked, no IMPA chip/Auto Park required. I'm pretty sure 23's had a new image processing unit without the magic chip. I could guess, but would defer to those who know more about it. It took ForScan to make it work for me. You might want to...

I've had some warranty work done as 36k creeps up. Namely, my 360 cameras were not aligned. The front is out about 6" - 1' from the side lines, and the bed camera has been replaced. The dealership updated software, unable to fix the alignment issues, bed camera works. The first service (Sept 25)...

So I'm a 0.5%-er, the type that did draw. The right equipment and training made all the difference. This is a thread about a DYI modification, not an Elbows and A$$hole check. Sometimes our opinion isn't necessary, and it is important to know when to leave it in your holster and when to pull it...

Zach, Speaking of Peace of Mind, I have a 22 King Ranch, under 36k and 36 mo. Looking to purchase Premium Care. Can you tell me if this covers the 360 Camera system and the BLIS system. I looked under Electrical and Hi-Tech, and don't see those listed as covered items. This isn't a gotcha...

Just a quick update. After the update, I seem to go a couple of days longer before Deep Sleep and Accessory Disable. Seems like I am digging for my remote to open the passenger door more often and cabin lights are dim. Improved, but far from fixed.

Calson, I think what you will see is 2 distinct groups, maybe 3 in the forum. 2021 model years, 2022 models and then 2023+. The 22's bears the worst of Ford with constraint deletes, industry leading number of recalls, abusive lack of communication, wilful deletions of features, and excessive...

I use Pennzoil Platinum, not Ultra. I use the Wix XP filters (XP are for synthetics). First change was at 300, then 1,000, and on the 5's there after. My latest Blackstone at 30k looks great. Wear metals are low compared to universal averages for the Ford 5.0L, and the other properties are well...

I just wanted to follow up for those who have read about using FordPass Points to buy parts at the dealership. Seems there is some confusion about Parts vs Accessories. Several dealers responded saying that you can buy parts at the dealership and use FP points while you are there. There is not a...

It seems like through the years that others have done this, and some were able to find a back door Accessories > Merchandise, but that seems to be disabled now. I just don't want to see these points go to waste. The parts I am thinking about are the much coveted Lighted Cup Holders, et. al...

Seems like I have seen through the years that members have used FordPass Points to purchase Parts. Has this changed? Am I mistaken? Or is Ford wrong again? I have points that will expire at the end of this month. My Username and Password, stored in my browser, are not recognized by FordParts...

Several valid points Bruce, but you focus on a few details glossing over the main point, Ford's prices are not commensurate with quality, amenities or service. 2024 base Cayenne is $86k, and I dare say a greater value than a F150. And when you look part for part, I am certain it cost more the...

OP, I'm with you. My 22 KR was built in Dec 21, I drove it off the lot Feb 1, 2022. May 2022, battery would not hold a charge. The dealer said there was a bad batch, but these are good. Six months later, the same failure. I put my mid-range Schumacher charger on it, and at times, it was so low...

Has anyone with the OTA BCM 24-PU0121-FTDI-FX and a 5.0 noticed improvement? I've had to leave my Associated Charger hooked up in Flash Mode to receive these updates. This is not a daily driver, but I would like to know if the truck will maintain a charge on its own. Prior to this, it would...

I stopped counting after 17 recalls for 21-22, and really thankful I did not take delivery of the Max Tow pkg we ordered. Rear axles dislodging from the carrier while driving?! Your truck would fit nicely in Norman. Boomer!

Adam, you have a 21 ... pre-Covid build? If so, that was the height of the Gen14. You and Bruce (Stuttgart Snob) are truly fortunate. The amount of recalls since 21 are staggering. Farley brought in an exec from Toyota to improve the quality ... more than a year ago? They decided to take items...
