Hi, I had no luck with a search so here goes: AA has worked well until just recently when it went AWOL. Normally when I'm on the Sync screen and plug in the cable , AA boots up and switches to app screen (Waze, Spotify, etc) but lately, nada. It stays on the Sync screen. Sync shows it recognizes...
Ford recommends checking engine accessory drive belts at 100k miles, and changing coolant at 200k. These mileages seem unrealistic to me, what say you?
A strange icon popped up on my dash (2020 XLT) a couple days ago, anyone know what it means? It is the orange symbol that appears just above the red "P" (for Park) in this photo.
My window trim molding on both sides has faded from black to a scuzzy grey. It looks like there is a clear protective strip over the molding which has faded to a cloudy grey, causing the discoloration. I was tempted to peel that protector off, but thought twice. Has anyone experienced this, and...
There is a huge live oak over my driveway that loves to drop leaves and other crud on my truck, and much of it ends up in the large panel gaps between the roof and windshield. This pic doesn't show much, but in Jan/ Feb (aka Autumn in Fla) the buildup is pretty impressive.
After scraping out...
I installed Auxito low, high and fog light bulbs in my XLT about a year ago. Been super happy with them, excellent light spread and never get flashed. However, last night I turned my fogs off and noticed that the low beams were barely lighting the road. Almost seems like it is in DRL mode...
System seems to work fine for outgoing calls, and I am able to use the voice prompt to call persons listed in my phone's contact list. But on an incoming call I cannot identify whom is calling, it only shows the phone number of the caller on the touchscreen. I receive a fair amount of robocalls...
I'm looking to install a dashcam and came across this item for a clean install:

Apparently there is a multipin port on the backside of the mirror module...
Just wondering how everyone is cleaning their Rangers these days. I always hand wash and dry, and have for every vehicle I've owned over the past 35+ years (too numerous to recall). May have used an automatic car wash once in that time, and it was for a rental car. I always believed the brushes...
Did an oil change today (2020 XLT), and noticed the lack of any sort of plastic splash pan under the engine. Is this kosher? The electric water pump looks especially vulnerable with its exposed connectors. Wondering if this item was left off during a service or just not there to begin with.
This is more of a curiousity than a concern, but every now and then I hear a single " ka-ching" sound from outside the truck near the front. For lack of a better description, it sounds like a tiny cash register. It seems to happen at random with the truck parked, (engine off and doors closed)...
Thinking of buying one to capture some of the silly stuff I see on the road, but not sure I want to mount on the windshield. Has anyone mounted one in the dash tray?
