I’ve had fantastic results by writing a short explanation of my concerns, putting it in an envelope along with a twenty (or two or three) and writing “For my Ford Tech” on it. Tiny price to pay for exceptional care. Donuts work, too

You seemed to describe your issue as a total electronic failure which makes it sound as if it were undriveable? The tech did drive the truck back in to your garage to park it, correct? Again, plausible that the truck was acting perfectly fine but something didn’t save well when the truck went...

As a professional auto technician with 25yrs experience, it is entirely plausible that this was not negligence on the part of the tech. Granted I wasn’t there and don’t know the specifics, but man, sometimes sh*t happens when performing software updates. I appreciate your frustration but the...

This has been my experience - the steering went back to “normal” after a short while

And I feel like the lane centering isn’t as great as it was before. Anyone else?

This is what I’m experiencing. I’ve seen on F150 ICE forums about a few settings in the PS Module that can be changed with FORScan, one specifically dealing with return to center. I have not played with this and haven’t researched fully yet.

I tried sport on the way home today to see if it stiffened up, still felt lighter than the old “normal”

Power steering module gets reprogrammed as well. I noticed it almost immediately when I picked it up. Less of a center feel and the camber of the road pulls the steering differently. I’m sure I’ll get used to it but I liked the old power steering boost level. I wonder if the FORScan gurus can...

I kinda miss the heavier steering feel

Please understand how monumental of a task that would be. This is what the dealer network is supposed to be for. Having one person or even a small team monitor the forum to respond to all of the gripes and questions posed would be too much to handle - not to mention that if Ford did reply to...

Taxman! Where did you find this diagram?! I want more!

100% agreed. I wake up every day and get excited to drive mine to work.

I highly doubt that a sales dept exists that keeps batteries charged at 100%. Even then we’re talking what, 5% deg? And then read what Rick just said about his measured SOH read and how it changed. SOH isn’t a constant either - it can and will change +/- with use and balancing of the cells. One...

Observed by itself, you are correct

Possible, but I’d be willing to bet against it. My larger point, having been a technician professionally for 25 years is that it’s impossible to pick which vehicle will be trouble or not - unless you go buy a Maserati, that’ll be a nightmare no matter what ?. OP could just as likely choose to...

My question was rhetorical The battery warranty is 8yrs or 100k miles. Just buy the damn thing if you like the deal. For reference, I’m knee-deep in the car business. I bought my ‘23 XLT ER after it sat on a local lot for about a year. Zero qualms about battery health, and on a full charge...

As long as the dealership hasn’t “punched” them yet (marked as sold with Ford) the clock hasn’t started ticking on the warranty. If it’s under full warranty, what does the time sat on the lot really matter?

Yes I touched up the toe in the rear. I had the camber kit ready to install but chose not to. If I recall correctly, max spec was -1.5* and it measured -1.8* after the lowering. I’m not hugely concerned by that as long as the toe is adjusted well. I don’t have the load scale on my XLT
