I had my battery module replacement work performed at Waldorf Ford, Waldorf, MD. I'm pleased with the overall experience, aside from the disappointment of losing my truck for 22-days. Looking at my invoice, it reflects the following: Parts: $2,819.76 Labor: $1,351.74 for 26.4 hours. Total...

Just picked up my truck a few days ago after 22-days at the dealership for replacement of battery module #6. My invoice listed the repair cost total at just over $4,000. About half of that was the battery module.

Last week I got the dreaded amber charge port lights when I plugged in the charging cord. Started the vehicle and had the Power Train Malfunction/Reduced Power and High Voltage Battery Warning messages. Had my 2023 w/12,000 miles on the clock towed to my local dealership Friday morning...

Here is a brief clip from a typical drive to the office.

I just found a very large bird nest behind the shutters! I noticed some sticks protruding out of the grill found the whole right side completely stuffed with the nest. I took me 20 minutes with a shop-vac and some long thin attachments to pull it all out. I'm going to install some mesh asap...

When I restart my truck after previously shutting it down in Sport mode, I receive a prompt on the screen asking me to “press OK to resume driving in Sport mode”.

Brought her home Thursday. How sweet it is!

My hunch was correct, the truck was not yet here. I won’t bore you with all of the details, but I will tell you before I left the house for the dealership in the morning the internet sales office called me to ask if I was coming by to see the truck I was interested in. They confirmed by VIN...

Still waiting on my shipped status. This evening while clearing out my typical load of junk email I noticed an email from my local Ford dealer advertising over $10K off F150s. So I had a look. Lo and behold, my truck is listed as “in stock” (it’s my VIN) boasting a sale price, and a...

My estimated delivery just changed from 10/6/2023 - 10/12/2023 to 10/1/2023 - 10/7/2023. So much for my confidence in the estimated dates, unless of course my truck is already on a Maryland bound train.

Inching closer...updated to built! Estimated Delivery 10/6/2023 - 10/12/2023

I get the following message now when I click the Activate button: I'll wait it out. I hope to be sitting in the truck within a few weeks.

I received access a couple of days after the truck came off the assembly line…for about 7-days. Initially I received the following message in Ford Pass: “You have successfully been authorized to remotely control and view the location of F-150” A week later I received the following: “VEHICLE...

Man, I’m stocking up on the popcorn for this movie. I am starting to think that these trucks are in fact doing the “ET call home” thing, reaching out to mother Ford with diagnostics information. How else would they know that batteries, or a set percentage of batteries, require replacement...
