  1. Key Fob Accidental Alarm Press Silenced

    I put up with 5 years of the alarm going off on my 2019 Lariat. Every time I went inside a store and sat down the alarm would go off if in my pocket. The annoying part is when it would go off you couldn't just hit the button to turn it off, you had to get within 50 ft of the vehicle to...
  2. Extended warranty for '19 Ranger?

    I just went through an episode with extended warranty. My 2019 Lariat Started developing problems in the 3rd year. Heater box, Sync3, parking sensors and cruise control problems. In April I got an email from Ford saying my extended warranty expired at 60k. The very next day the heater...
  3. Thanks and Farewell!

    I told them about the climate control system not the history.
  4. Thanks and Farewell!

    No one understands getting rid of a Ranger more than me. When I first got my 2019 it was good for 2 years. The third year it was the transmission surging that I put up with for 2 months. The end of the third year it was the heater box. 16 months later it's the heater box again after...
  5. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    I realize a vehicle is hit or miss but I thought there would be more not singing the praises. I will say mine was trouble free for 2 years, the 3rd year it just started to disintegrate and showed no sign of stopping. Also not pleased with the dealer I used as that heater problem should...
  6. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    It's posted on here under bucking/surging. The part that goes bad is something with the EGR. Drove me nuts when it malfunctioned. The dealer told me it was normal until I showed them what was posted on this site.
  7. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    To my knowledge this only happens on the climate control system where you set a temp and the system maintains it (at least till it fails). Both times on mine the driver side got nothing but heat while the passenger got AC at the lowest setting. The time I got it repaired the dealer had it...
  8. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    This was another thing that I learned with the Ranger. That truck was fine for 3 years and then it fell apart. With that thought I leased the Tacoma for 3 years. I'll drive it for 3 years and turn it over to someone else.
  9. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    I got 24k for the Ranger. As much as I liked that truck I was never so happy as when I pulled out in the Tacoma. There were way to many things going wrong with it. I never mentioned how any time the temp dropped below 36 degrees here in the winter the parking sensors quit working and if...
  10. My Observations of the Ranger Lariat After 5 year.

    I purchased my Ranger on 4/20/19. I was in awe of the vehicle from the time I sat down. The first year I made 2 trips to Raleigh with it and loved how it handled on the WV Turnpike. The hills were unnoticeable. The Ranger did me well for 2 years. The2nd year I put up with the...
  11. Anyone say, I should have purchased a different truck?

    Looks like "El Dung" got me again with another nail in the coffin. Yesterday I stopped over a Friend's house to help him move to a new home. After a couple hours we came back to my Ranger. Started just fine but the vehicle would not let me shift out of P and the steering wheel was locked...
  12. Anyone say, I should have purchased a different truck?

    I've had my 2019 Lariat for 4.5 years now. I'm not all that happy with it because of the problems I've had since it hit 3 years. First the transmission. I put up with the bucking and surging for about 2 months, very annoying. Within 6 months of the bucking the climate control would send...
  13. Sync3 Issues

    Haven’t had a problem since I got the vehicle back.
  14. Sync3 Issues

    Sofwae Version 3.4, build 22251
  15. Sync3 Issues

    I know it's probably hopeless but can I shut off updates or will they still sneak some in?
  16. Sync3 Issues

    You'd have to tell me how to look that up. I haven't done that in months and don't remember where it is.
  17. Sync3 Issues

    Ford dealer took my truck this morning and just returned it. They replaced the APIM and everything is working great now. We shall see if it continues to work correctly but it now stays on the radio source after restarting. I'll know better tomorrow once I give it a good workout.
  18. Sync3 Issues

    My truck is going in Wednesday to the dealer. I have very little faith in them correcting this problem. There are times when I just get a black screen now. I hate to say it but my vehicle has been troublesome and I'm getting tired of repairs. In the last year it was transmission...
  19. Sync3 Issues

    I knew they were nuts wanting to put another APIM into the vehicle. I'm going to try what you did. Thanks for the heads up.
  20. Sync3 Issues

    Just got off the phone with my Ford Dealer. High ups at Ford are saying it's the Atim or something like that which is the interface. Made the appointment but I expect no change. After 40 years of working with computers I can tell you it's software related. Problem is Ford has the vehicle...
