I'm investigating a battery drain issue with my truck. When the battery drain is in progress with the truck off, I see that the instrument cluster display is on but only shows "PRNDM". None of the letters are highlighted in any way. So, the display seems to be powered, but it isn't receiving...

Have you noticed any kind of reaction from your truck when it is off and you approach with your cell phone, but no key/fob? By off, I mean the truck is parked, turned off, and has been sitting there for some time. I have my phone connected to the truck with Bluetooth/Car Play. I assume if the...

Last week after work, I left the building and walked to my truck, which I could see had the head lights on. I always have the lights set to automatic and even if I had accidently turned the lights on, I think the lights automatically shut off after a period of time. Fortunately, the truck...

I'm trying to diagnose some odd behavior I'm experiencing with my truck, which I'll describe below. When I turn off my PowerBoost, there has always been (I assume normal behavior) a clunk-clunk sound coming from in front of the driver under the hood after it has been shut off. This happens...

After reading another thread here, I thought it could be helpful to others to briefly describe how to use the on-board scales beyond what is shown in the Ford promotional video. The images below are from my 2022 F150 Platinum, so there may have been changes to later model years. Enter the...

I recently towed a U-Haul trailer ~2,500 miles. It was full on the way there and empty on the way back. The trailer was 18 feet long from the back of the trailer to the rear bumper, and the total weight was 5000 pounds when full, so a smaller trailer. Although I have towed many times over the...

Is the 12 volt battery charged when the Powerboost is in electric mode? Also, is the AC compressor in the Powerboost electric? By the way, I had my truck sitting for almost 3 weeks and the 12 volt battery still had a good charge.

The one-touch up on my driver's windows doesn't work, and I just thought that was how it was intended to work for some reason since one-touch down does work. However, I recently read the following technical service bulletin, and now think that one-touch on the driver's window should work. I...

My 2022 F150 had a small transmission oil leak in August. 2022 Transmission Oil Leak Under warranty, the dealership replaced the transmission output shaft seal and the differential input shaft seal. The problem was straight forward to identify and the dealership did a great job. I verified a...

When changing the motor oil on my F150, I noticed a drip of transmission oil on my skid plate under the transmission. I wiped it off since it was small, and kept an eye on it. The next day there were a few more drips, and this morning there was probably a tablespoon of oil on the pad I placed...

I had four modules in my SW Updates list including the PCM update. All of the update seemed to work successfully including the PCM update, but the PCM update continues to show up in the SW Update list. I've clicked "Run" on the PCM update four times. The first time took some time to complete...

Besides or in addition to this site, where have you listed you vehicle for sale for a private party sale? I've used Craig's List and just parked it in a high visibility spot in the past with success. I'm wondering if there are better options. I have a 2019 Honda Ridgeline RTL-E that I'm...

When my Platinum order (see most details in my signature) went into production, the "module" count jumped to 1069 and stayed that way until it transitioned to "Built". The module count now stands at 1884. Below is a table that shows the count of each type of module (based on the first three...

I recently asked my dealer about the status of my F150, and with their response, I was sent a VVR, which I show most of below. It says the primary status is "In Production" and the secondary status is "Produced". It does not say anything about chip hold, but I haven't received a "Built" email...

TSMC is the largest semiconductor manufacture (chip manufacture) in the world and recently reported that it sees demand for chips slowing worldwide including in the automotive sector. "Automotive, server and network IC demand growth is slowing while demand for notebooks, smartphones and TVs...

I'm sure someone has mentioned this maybe many times, but I don't have a lot of luck with the search function here sometimes. What is the transport method for F150s from Dearborn to Granger and how long does it typically take? My window sticker says CONVOY, but I think I read here that convoy...

I just received my "Scheduled for Production" email message from Ford! Two months from now seems like a long time, but I'm just happy to have received the VIN and production date. It was a nice surprise since I wasn't expecting anything on Monday.

Granted, this forum isn't really a forum about finances or retirement, but I do see many retirees on the forum. I also really appreciate experience/advice from real people who are actually doing what they are talking about instead of reading about retirement from someone who isn't even close to...

Have you used Costco for your recent purchase of an in stock truck? What pricing did you receive? I would just go through the process, but I'd like to avoid wasting my time (fielding phone calls) if there is no discount at this time.

The following thread listed several options that would be deleted by Ford from orders on May 9th. If your order was affected, have you confirmed with Ford or your dealer that those items have been removed/deleted from your order...
