  1. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    Keep meaning to circle back here.... I got my truck back on the 17th. After it sat at the dealer with nothing happening for weeks, and after getting a new specialist assigned because the first one went on leave, it finally got escalated to Ford for repair. From what I'm told, what they did...
  2. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    :( Mine's already back in the shop. I took it on one trip - a ~220 mile trip that I've made 30+ times without issue, and I had to charge 30 miles from home. Then after charging at home, on Sunday I drove a mile before getting the High Voltage Battery Warning / Pull over now message and had to...
  3. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    I'll send you who in a DM, but I don't want to throw them under the bus. They're still the best option around here.
  4. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    I got my truck back this morning. The notes say that Module #8 was replaced. I lost the service counter lottery and got the prickly guy instead of one of the other - nicer - people that I had previously been talking to, so I got terse partial answers to my questions. For example he couldn't be...
  5. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    Friday is here... I heard Wednesday that the part wouldn't be in until today, so I likely wouldn't have my truck back until Monday. Today the word is part Wednesday, maybe.... The dealer is being extremely pleasant and nice about it... but they don't have a loaner for me to drive, and...
  6. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    My dealer says that I do, in fact, need a module replaced. They also said it should be done Friday. ?
  7. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    Good luck with yours as well! Hopefully the parts are flowing faster these days...
  8. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    Yes. When the error first came up it didn't show reduced power (or I didn't notice?), but after a few miles it dropped down to 59%, and then on the way to the dealer 56%. I had the power reduction issue happen once during the summer at full charge, but without the error message and the...
  9. Dreaded Service Vehicle Soon Error

    This week was my week for this issue as well. Had the truck in for 30k service and tires last Monday. When I got it back my range was low, but I never trust the estimated range anymore anyway... Thursday I drove it 180 miles. I told it to charge to 100%, and had set a departure time. When the...
  10. Anyone know the going rate for a letter'I'?

    Doesn't apply in this case because it ships from Arizona, but be careful buying Ford emblems on eBay. I bought one that shipped from Ukraine. CBP flagged it as counterfeit and I lost my Global Entry.
  11. Charging Port Needs to be Replaced (New Truck Didn't Even Get Us Home from the Dealership)

    Are you a car salesman or something? Dealers should have to compete with every dealer in a 500 mile radius on price and service. If they believe that dealerships provide value over letting manufacturers sell directly then they need to put their money where their mouths are. (Frequently on their...
  12. Windshield replacement

    I've had mine replaced, unfortunately. Took a hit from who knows what on an empty back road in Vermont without any other vehicles anywhere near me, and the little chip rapidly spread to a big crack. It was, indeed, the same windshield as the regular F-150, but there are multiple versions. You...
  13. 100% but only at 90% charged

    If it's the same update I've got, it didn't actually say it improved range estimation. It said it changed range estimation to show what's possible if you drive efficiently. To me that means if you choose to drive inefficiently it will show a less-accurate estimate of your range. (I chose to...
  14. Service - the big issue that's getting bigger

    Are they not interested in a high demand job that pays well? Or are they not interested in being an underpaid apprentice to a master electrician for years before they're allowed to work for a fair rate?
  15. Frunk Not Closing ?

    Probably doesn’t apply here, but the frunk won’t operate if the truck is in gear either. If you shift while it’s closing, it will stop.
  16. How is this component secured?

    These are very common, and your dealer was being nice in his spin of why it's there. It's so it's easy to repo the truck if you miss payments. "Protect your dealership and assets with GoldStar, the premier provider for GPS telematics in the U.S. Using proprietary technology and features...
  17. Ford Recalling 18 Lightning Vehicles After Battery Fire

    I'm not worried about my Lightning catching fire AT ALL. However I hate misleading charts like this. My lightning is parked right next to my '76 'vette that has a completely custom pulse-width-modulated fuel system I built myself with no prior experience, and completely custom wiring. As such...
  18. Frunk Creek and other problems

    I found this thread after mine behaved this way yesterday. I left the frunk open overnight because I had the mobile charger in there and left it open while I charged. When I came back to drive off I would get three sets of two beeps and it wouldn't close. Button, fob, or interior button. Same...
