  1. Backup camera almost useless at night--improved camera?

    I have not had any issues with the cameras on my '23 Lariat. But I do live in the city, so it is never truly dark. And compared to my last car, Cayenne e-Hybrid, the Lightning cameras are a big step up. The Cayenne's backup camera was pretty much useless in any dark situation.
  2. Armrest/console lid padding is too thin.

    Very nice. Thank you!
  3. Armrest/console lid padding is too thin.

    Says it does not work on the workstation cover, but the two armrests appear the same size to me. Is the issue that it will not allow the workstation to unfold? That is ok with me as I do not use the workstation. Can anyone attest to it fitting a workstation armrest? I could not find information...
  4. Water Leaking Through Sunroof Controls

    It is u fortunate that you are having this problem. We have as a community made suggestions on the most common cause, clogged drains. It may be that there is a manufacturing defect with your truck. I would suggest that this is a problem for the dealer to evaluate and if indeed there is an issue...
  5. Water Leaking Through Sunroof Controls

    Same issue of clogged drains happens with convertibles. My Boxster is prone to this issue. I purchased a trombone cleaner brush which does the trick of clearing blockages, and you get to answer the question "why do you have a trombone cleaner?"
  6. Park assist?

    I have a 23 Lariat with the park assist and have used it 3-4 times. It is a very clunky system to use. I find that I can parallel or perpendicular park this vehicle just fine by eye, and using the myriad cameras and radar sensors, much faster than using the system. To use the system you need to...
  7. Q1 2026 Forum Survey Results (And what we're doing next)

    One recurring complaint. Had a software update for the trailer module last night. This morning all my dash and radio settings were deleted. Having to again re-program my radio stations. Is this just a Lightning thing, or are other Ford products affected? This seems like an easy fix, or a very...
  8. Q1 2026 Forum Survey Results (And what we're doing next)

    Dog mode Camp mode PPO on when truck off ('23 Lariat owner) Recall the glitchy folding shifter and replace with a Lightning specific rotary Automatic engagement of parking brake when parked And give everyone whom owns a Lightning a real, honest to goodness, paper owners manual But otherwise I...
  9. Cancelled Ford EV three row design leaked

    Looks like a Model Y and a Flex had a baby. Would hate to be sitting in that third row. No headroom!
  10. What the coming F-150 Lightning EREV needs (per Motor Trend)

    It is all about the range. Hybrid models are being advertised as to how much range they have, not their MPG. Because MPG is bad, but being able to drive for 8-10 hours without a brake makes perfect sense for people.
  11. Bed Rack + Ideas for holding more camping gear!

    Not sure what you are doing with your truck bed on other days, but my concern would be whether the cross bars on the racks are moveable. The Thule bars are mobile, and can be moved forward when you need tall bed access. Not sure about the other options, which do look cool, but might limit your...
  12. What is this?

    I have a front license plate frame which came with the car but the dealer did not install. It sits between the lower edge of the frunk lid and the bumper. It does not interfere with any workings of the truck. It is attached with two screws, and the plastic of the bumper has two indentations...
  13. BYD super fast charging with an interesting market comment

    Faster on-road charging, and reliable chargers, are a must. But faster at-home/destination charging would also be a key element to wider adoption. Please correct me if I am wrong. In the US we are on a 110V home standard while Europe, with much wider EV adoption, is on a 220V home standard. So...
  14. CarPlay stopped working with my phone

    No updates on the truck or on my phone in the last few days. But they decided to play nice this morning and CarPlay worked, after 4 days of failure. Hopefully they have made up and will continue to work together.
  15. CarPlay stopped working with my phone

    On iOS 26.3.1, so current. Totally perplexed. Hoping that tomorrow it will magically fix itself like it magically broke itself.
  16. CarPlay stopped working with my phone

    Has anyone else had a recent issue with their IPhone and CarPlay not connecting? I have tried multiple times wirelessly, disconnected and re-paired my phone, and have tried several cables in both the USB a and c ports in the dash cubby. Have re-started Sync and my phone. Nothing seems work. Has...
  17. Before You Schedule an Appointment for the Recall 25C69 (IPM) Fix -- make sure your dealer has the actual software update needed

    I spoke with my ford dealer when I got the initial notifications. He said they did not have parts/program, and would notify me when available. Still have not heard from him months later. Perhaps I should try again '23 Lariat ER
  18. Ford App v6.8.0 Android

    Bed cam alert? Kind of like a sentry mode? So why can't we have that for all of our cameras, and in the event of a collision?
  19. plug in hybrids rarely plugged in

    Had a Porsche Cayenne PHEV. The electric range was rather limited, 8-12 miles depending on the weather. While on gas averaged overall about 30 mpg, which was not bad for an 5500 pound 400+ HP luxury vehicle. But still had all of the maintenance expense of an ICE vehicle, with the added luxury...
  20. Calm screen making me.. Not calm

    Happens frequently on my '23. Reverts back to the default selections for MyView and I have to re-select my options. I cannot detect any rhyme or reason, and Brian from Ford has yet to respond when I have posted about this before (Hello Brian?). This has been a bug that had happened since I...
