You can transfer a vehicle with the ESP intact but you can't transfer an ESP to a different VIN if you get rid of the covered car. For example, when my '22 was bought back Ford paid me for the ESP that was on it and I had to repurchase it for my new Lightning (and it was almost $2K more...

hahaha, I'm sorry I'm still having trouble understanding but what always after what? does that mean the BMS reset is always after the charge or the charge is always after the reset?

Are we supposed to charge the battery to 100% and then do the BMS reset or perform the BMS reset before charging the battery to 100%?

Are you talking about these (phoenix connectors)?

I don't remember those parts in either of my boxes and I received my FCSPs straight from the source. Maybe they are already inside the unit itself but I'm not even sure what you're referring to, tbh. Are you certain these parts don't come with the home integration system?

This is clearly false. "Blue Cruise" includes everything from the mapping to the sensors to the logic involved under the hood. Ford knows customers won't pay $50/month for "maps" and even discussing it like GPS mapping providers is a misnomer: BC "maps" are the overlay for BC to function as it...

I always find it strange when adults, who have surely had similar mundane life experiences as I have, so firmly claim things not to be true even though they clearly happen to be true. The fact of the matter is BC is not free--it's a subscription service. And unless I've been living a very...

I still haven't received the BCM update, tried to toggle WAL via FORScan, the toggles wouldn't stay (kept flipping off), and then I get this update today and my toggles are still there and still won't stay on. I guess this won't work until I get a BCM update so it's weird this rolled through...

It's only 8/100K in CA. 10/150K is for PZEV *only*. If anyone is looking for massage seats there's a button right in the middle of the seat adjustment on each driver/passenger seat. The adjustment will have four detents instead of the usual two. It may be hard to see and the selling...

Received an OTA specifically for WAL but the toggle keeps flipping back to disabled whenever I try and turn it on.

I already explained why this isn't accurate. Tires do not sit on the road "evenly" and they don't wear "evenly." Rotating them doesn't ensure maximum rubber contact with the road--it does the opposite resulting in less contact with the road surface.

Sure, which is why Tires also wear faster on one side of the vehicle than the other...but it's not worth getting into the weeds as to why or what to do about it the same way it doesn't make sense for the average consumer to worry about UV/age unless the tire is visibly cracking and/or many...

Well sorry but I just checked and they're General Grabbers.

Forgot to mention I never rotated my Lariat's wheels for the three years I owned it and the wear pattern was nearly identical across all four. I don't intend to rotate my Platinum's wheels, either. I disagree that rotating to account for microscopic wear is only beneficial. The counter argument...

I have a spare tire that I took off my left when I caught a jack handle in my right tire and replaced both tires. It's 275/60R20 but I have a platinum now with 22" wheels so no use for it as a spare anymore. I'm in LA. Message me if you're interested and I'll measure the exact tread depth. I...
