ok, so frustratingly, I have a similar complaint. WAL for Ford is awful. I can leave the truck in a parking lot, walk away, it will not lock 50% of the time. I come back to the truck, only to see it is unlocked. (dont get me started on why the app does not show status). however, in my...
This. It is very clear. The videos sent to the mobile device are highly compressed, but from the USB/dash screen they are clear and easy to make out details.
As for Battery drain, as shown in the statement from Rivian, Tesla and Rivian drivers know the implications to battery. You can...
I have had this same issue with my truck since I bought it in 2022. No fix for me as of yet, but I have not taken it in yet for the CarPlay no sound issue. Maybe that fixes it. @TaxmanHog - I have not received an OTA since August of last year. Trips to the dealer updated the modules to the...
Did the same thing with a 2016 Yukon Denali. Pandemic shortages earned me $40k in 2022. Bought a Tesla Model 3 while I waited on the delivery of my Lightning. Traded it in on the Lightning for what I had in it. Cost me insurance and electricity to drive for 4 months.
Gone are those days...
Ford changed the onboard charger for 2024 to 48A max for both Standard and Extended range. This shows up in the at home charging speeds. A shame really as you are trying to fill a battery that is almost 2x the size of the model Y at the same speed.
EDIT to add link...
not sure how you Lariat worked, but my 22 Platinum rips, maybe I need to try a Lariat. I believe overall, the Platinum is slightly slower than the Lariat due to the added weight.
Wonder if they are tuning the 24's differently with the energy pedal.
Congrats on the truck. Agree with...
This is a similar pet peeve of mine. I tell the dealer before I sign that they must remove all references showing their dealer (Stickers, license plate, etc) or credit me back $1000 for an advertising fee. I did this after the decal damaged one of my vehicles many years ago as I tried to...
This to me still seems silly 1 year after launch of the Tesla access. Tesla and Rivian nail this perfectly.
Also, anyone else have an issue with CarScanner showing an inaccurate SOC? Mine is off by as much as 5-7%.
I have the same VeePeak and it stopped working with ABRP for some reason. I went to the OBDLink CX and Paid for ABRP as the only real way to trip plan in the Lightning. Cannot with built in Navigation as it still cannot navigate to a Tesla charger, Apple Maps does not allow any customization...
I would 1000% agree. I love my Lightning and do my fair share of bashing, but Tesla software and updates are light years ahead of ford.
Being a tech person myself, I find it infuriating with Ford. Over 2.5 years into ownership, and I still cannot tell you the version of software or...
Yes, it is listed for the older trucks, but is the part number shown in my order confirmation and the front did fit on my truck. I used my FordPass rewards.
Hopefully it is more efficient than GM. I had originally ordered a Silverado EV First Edition. It rolled off the line 5/9/2024, marked ready to ship on 5/24/2024, marked awaiting shipment on 6/2/2024, arrived at the dealer 12/13/2024. I had long since moved on due to the quality issues...
Bought them on ford parts website:
This one I did for the front, the website says it does not fit, but the front does as far as I can tell with mine.

I have done this on several cars. I have not on my lightning, mainly because I updated my ford emblems with the black versions. the results are great and last for years in my case. My 21 Tesla MYP still has the one I did when I first got the car.
As previous poster stated, dust with many coats...
