Hello Folks,
Having an issue with my 2022 Lariat ER, about a month ago, I believe right after an OTA update, my front parking sensors started to displaying an error message. I looked and saw there was a recall for exactly the front sensors, so I called the dealer and scheduled an appointment two weeks down the road (first available). Long story short, they kept my truck for almost the whole week, on the second day, they gave me the truck back supposedly with the problem resolved.
I drove two blocks and returned with the same problem, fast forward to last Thursday, after back and forth conversations with Ford engineering they again delivered me the truck, again supposedly fixed.
This time, I didn't even left their parking lot, the fault showed up as soon as I moved the truck.
Reading thru the dealer reports, I can clearly see the technician was very doubtful of his findings... I kept the truck, because it was at the end of the day and they were all gone, called next day and am coming back to leave the truck for further troubleshooting and hopefully a fix, in two weeks when I'm going away and can leave the truck there.
I've attached the dealer's report here, if any of you would like to take a peak and also a photo of the dash warning.
Would love to hear if someone also had the same problem and what was the remedy... Thanks in advance for your help
Cheers, (What a beautiful weekend we're having up here, hopefully everyone is enjoying it...)

I can't help with the resolution of your problem, but maybe I can assist with avoidance for others. A few months ago I took my Lightning to the dealership for the second replacement of the rear light bar. When I pointed out that the Front Parking Sensor CSP was open, the Service Advisor recommended, "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." He said they had issues with the CSP and recommended not doing it. I took him at his word.
