Just replaced a 1.5 year old battery on my friend’s HRV (not AGM). Costco replaced it free since it had a 4 year full warranty. BUT not any more for new batteries. Totally prorated from day 1. Costco said that too many people taking advantage of Free Replacement. I would imagine that customers...

Just used Forscan to change the Battery SOC to 87%. Didn’t work with car just set on Ignition. The change only proceeded to 11% and I got errors. I started the car and it worked. See pic.

On Forscan my 2020 XLT said 600 CCA but had it replaced under warranty with the 760. See pics.

Is this the correct Forscan cable for a PC?——The OBDLink EX USB? Then how do i find the location to alter the Battery Charge %?

Dealer replaced battery and all is now fine again.

i heard that Interstate provides the Best Batteries. Not true?

I did a Load Test and the battery was Marginal. Told Dealer I wanted a new one since many are in same soon to be warranty expiration. They gave me a new one. Don‘t know what tests were done. They kept the paperwork since my A/S/S system issues are still not solved (per them). I‘ve had no...

Just had mine replaced by Dealer at same timeframe. My warranty runs out in August. Have only seen that screen once.

Who makes Interstate batteries?

After 6 hours at the dealer to finally replace the battery and download new files (supposed to take 2 hours!) the dealer said the A/S/S still didn’t work. They would contact Ford. Well, well, it worked fine for me on the way home. Now the FORScan route to change to 95%. Gotta reread the...

Finally got my Pre-Collision to work after NOT being successful with using Cardboard on the Ranger or a Highlander. Just drove up the long driveway at about 10 mph and came close to the other car. Flashing and Audible Warnings!! No braking assist but didn’t want to push my luck.

OBD adaptor to laptop? Pic or spec? Ipad?

OK just tested with cardboard. Collision Sensitivity is set at High. Windshield is clean. Ran tests with cardboard 28” x 58”. Tested in horizontal and vertical positions. Car at 10 mph in driveway. Drove at speed within 2-3’ of cardboard 3 times each. NO Warning on Dash or Alarms. No...

Yes. I read about that. Gotta find some other Ranger owner in DE since that would be all I ever need to do with it. Versus buying it, then other charges?

I always leave that Screen On. It always says Battery Charging despite driving 10 miles or so on a highway. Load Tested battery and it’s Marginal. Will ask Ford dealer for new battery or install new one to prove that ASS system only works with a new battery. My 3 year warranty expires in...

My Pre-collision never activated when I almost needed it. I stomped on the brake and avoided collision. Wondered why it didn’t send any warning. Then a few months after that I got the display warning but no audible for no reason at all. Dealer “checked” it but gave the excuse that no codes...

I also installed the Bestop one. Expensive but looks more rugged and larger than the $99 one plus it retracts when pushed up slightly.

It always says Normal Operation. It’s what is said UNDER that when you Stop that you have to be concerned about.

My auto stop worked fine for the first 1 year+. Last 6 months, no longer works. Display always says Charging. Of course it worked at the recent dealer’s appt!! No idea why. Did a Load Test and battery was Marginal. Smart charger would not charge over 12.72 volts. Don’t know why...

And even CO2. Imagine that we exhale it and plants use it.
