Warranty past 36K, and anyone had these issues, what's the fix?

[dannko58]

I have ESP extended but before I hit 36K miles Ford gave me a authorization to get warranty work done because I was going to pass 36K. Dealers wouldn't see you for weeks or months and with appointments. All my safety stuff is haywire, lane changing won't work, then does work, aid and alert. Backup stuff sometimes works, emergency braking does not work, etc...anyone deal with this and what happened? Also I get major lag or pause in acceleration with the Powerboost in engine mode, and heard this is a lawsuit issue. Transmission occasionally shifts jerky.

Sounds like some, most, maybe all of your issues are software related. The harsh shifting, for example, is likely due to out of date software in your powertrain control module (PCM). For an investment of about $650 (assuming you have a laptop), you can reprogram your truck’s control modules yourself using the same software Ford’s dealers use. Visit this thread, ask some questions there, and see if it’s an option for you. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/ecu-module-programming-guide-using-fdrs.8249/
