VERY specific but when I turn left, uphill and accelerate at the same time there's a loud grinding sound coming from the front driver side. I've taken it to the dealer a couple time and they keep saying nothing is happening and they can't replicate it. I notice it most when I first leave my...
The UHaul Trailer has surge brakes on it and I think I used a 2" drop. I do have the FX4 package (removed the stickers)
Also, my torino is for sale if anyone is interested ;)
Honestly the Ford Dealer Maint is really turning me off from ever buying a Ford again. Not sure if it's just the SF Bay dealers who don't give a rats about service because they know there's plenty of people who keep them busy or what.
My rear armrest has been "stuck" in the up position basically since I bought the car. I've always gone through the fast lane and they don't fix things like that. So today I took my truck in for it's 20,000 mile tune up and the rear brake light recall so I asked them to look into it.
They just...
Here's my sequence of events:
Plug in phone
Setup maps to go to destination
Have the screen on the maps/guidance
Listening to SiriusXM
Phone on vibrate
Passenger will be scrolling through twitter (app) or instagram (app)

It happens, a lot for...
Hi all, I love to use Apple CarPlay for navigation but I don't want it to take over audio! Whenever something with audio pops up while using my phone and it's connected to carplay the audio switchs from SirusXM to the phone. Is there a way to stop this from happening??
Every once in a while my GPS will go wonky and tell me I"m driving somewhere I clearly am not! IN this case, I wasn't even driving in the direction it had me going... I was going west and it said I was going east!
IS this just a bug or should I take it in for service?
This past weekend I did a 1,400 mile road trip to go pick up my 1971 Torino which as been in storage for 2 years... SF Bay, CA -> Kennewick, WA -> SF Bay
On the drive up there I managed 24.1MPG and on the drive back while towing I managed 15.9!! I was super impressed with how the truck handled...
Ford announced Sync 4, will we be able to upgrade or are we always stuck on Sync 3?

Wow, glad i"m not the only one with this problem... I keep mine in auto but when I get out I bump it into the ON position and then drains the battery down.
Is anyone else SUPER FRUSTRATED by the location of the headlight switch. Nearly every time I get in and out of my truck my Knee hits it and I turn on my headlights!!
I hope they move it somewhere else!
Sorry. Yes, i am looking at renting that trailer.
So the weight would be pretty close to the max of the truck. I tow a lot, but the heaviest thing I've towed is a 3500lbs RV camper. So this might be a bit of a challenge for me!
Hi All,
I have a 1978 full size Bronco that I need to tow from WA state down to CA... I was going to rent a flat tow trailer from u-haul but they are saying their system won't let me rent because it "exceeds my towing ability" on the Ranger.
The curb weight of the bronco is 4700lbs. What are...
Thanks for the replies! Interesting to see how things change between dealers/regions. I called three other dealers all had appt wait times for 1+ week... I finally found a dealer that was 20 miles away with an express lane. Went over there and one hour later it was done.
Just amazes me that the...
Hi All, I'm coming from Infiniti, for the past 15 years I've been driving Infiniti vehicles and this is my First Ford... Today is my first experience with Ford service. With my old dealer, I could always get service appts within a few days and the basic oil change with a free car wash was...
