  1. Does anyone have a "Gap" policy for new vehicle?

    Progressive insurance charges me like 10 dollars extra every 6 months for 20 percent gap coverage. It's really cheap.
  2. Rear motor rattling with red fluid leaking

    I originally posted this when it happened to me at 6700 miles. Ford replaced the rear motor. Now I'm at 20,000 miles, and haven't had any issues. I was hoping when I got the new motor, that maybe it was a newer version of it. My truck is a 2023 XLT ER built in September of 2023.
  3. Rear motor death by exsanguination.

    I don't know exactly what part failed in mine to cause it, but I just let the truck decide if it needs the parking brake on or not. It does engage often for me, as my driveway has a slight incline to it.
  4. Rear motor death by exsanguination.

    Sorry that happened to yours. I have a post on here when my 2023 XLT ER rear motor had that same failure at around 6700 miles. Took 3 weeks to get the truck back from the dealership with a new motor installed. I've put 10,000 miles on the new motor, and everything is going well. Ford...
  5. Ford Launches New Electric Road Trip Hub Site

    It's nice seeing Google maps routing now preconditioning the battery enroute to the DC fast chargers.
  6. Garage too small. Anyone park outside? In the snow?

    My garage is 8 inches too small to fit my Lightning. I'm in WI, and it's sat outside in the cold and snow. My Emporia charger is mounted outside as well. No issues with the truck being outside in the cold. I just start it up 10 minutes before I have to leave so it's nice and warm inside. I...
  7. Would You Buy A Lightning Again?

    Yes, definitely. It's a fantastic truck
  8. Is the Official Ford Motor Company account for issues/repairs on this forum legit?

    Yes, when my rear motor failed, they promptly responded to my inquiries through private message on here, and I was then connected through them to someone else who called me and gave me updates. They even called my dealer service department.
  9. Miserable Ford Parts experience rant

    If it was me at this point I would do a credit card dispute, over the wrong items sent, and unable to resolve with seller. Get your hundred bucks back, and don't worry about the points, there are worse things in life to stress about.
  10. Speaker Upgrade Advice for Non-B&O System

    I got the Infinity Reference REF-6532ex for all 4 speakers. Sound is really great. Then they throw in the Metra 72-5602 Speaker Wiring Harness sets which let the speakers plug right into the Ford wiring harness, the Metra 82-5605 Speaker Mounting Brackets, and the Metra 82-5607 Speaker Mounting...
  11. Speaker Upgrade Advice for Non-B&O System

    I upgraded the 4 door speakers, and it was really easy. Bought from crutchfield, and got the foam covers from Amazon that surround the speakers, claim to give more bass, and give them extra protection from any moisture. I didn't do the pillar tweeters, because after doing the main 4, the sound...
  12. Unidentified chimes when starting up

    In nav settings, turn off alerts for for places of interest, that's what fixed mine. You just uncheck the boxes next to the various things like parks, and gas stations...... Yes gas stations are on there ?
  13. Rear motor rattling with red fluid leaking

    Update. A new motor arrived at the dealer on Tuesday June 4th, they put in the new motor Wednesday, and I will be picking up the truck today. I had been looking into the buyback if this had gone on longer past the 30 days, but will be nice to have it back 3.5 weeks in.
  14. Powertrain Malfunction - No HVAC

    Yea, will call Ford for the heads up, then send them the completed WI lemon law forms by certified mail. But, they still have about a week to fix the truck....
  15. Powertrain Malfunction - No HVAC

    Parts availability for broken trucks seems to be a recurring thing. The cost of getting these parts to the dealers to fix the trucks would be so much better financially for Ford than buying back trucks under lemon laws. I'm on day 21 waiting for a new rear motor. Already decided if I hit day...
  16. Rear motor rattling with red fluid leaking

    Tuesday the 28th came and went with no motor delivery to the dealership by Ford. Dealer service said Ford is saying they didn't have one to ship, and changed the order status to backordered, with no delivery estimate. I had a feeling their delivery estimate of Tuesday wasn't happening. The...
  17. Rear motor death by exsanguination.

    Oh that sucks. Sorry to see this again.
  18. Rear motor rattling with red fluid leaking

    Sorry to see this happened to yours too. When was your truck built? Wondering if they had some bad parts in a certain run of motors. Hopefully they can get a new motor out to your dealer fairly quickly.
  19. Rear motor rattling with red fluid leaking

    That's great news! I'm hoping sometime next week for me. We'll see if the new motor gets delivered on time.
