Final update:
Had it towed at 7am this morning. It's 2pm and the dealer called to let me know they were able to update the software with direct connection and the vehicle is now running! He couldn't explain what happened but mentioned there was a 4x4 connection that was 'loose' and they...
for sure! Thanks. I was just in a pissy mood last night as had to pick up my son and didn't have a car. To your point, that would be messed up. You're late on your payments so we've turned off your heated seats, stereo and navigation until payment is received :LOL:
Just sharing in case this happens to others. Some small updates
Ford customer service couldn’t get in touch with roadside assistance. So asked me to call directly. Couldn’t get a tow dispatched
Called dealer service dept and he looked up and couldn’t see any issue on his end. He shared it might...
Ugh. TBH I realize it could happen to other makes but this makes me strongly consider selling this Ford and going back to a Toyota. Unreal yours was down for a month.
tbh! The entire Ford experience has been disappointing. I’m not going to start de
i bought and paid cash in full!!!
Thanks! Tried both and didn't fix it. It was a race to do factory reset as once it loads the bricked message appears and nothing else works. Unfortunately I now lost my connection with app sync. Looks like it's going to be a tow!
Unreal! I saw another post from earlier this year but didn’t see any solution. Called ford and stated nothing they could do remote so it would be required to be towed to dealer. This was my biggest fear buying a Ford and 1 year after buying it here we go…. Sucks to modify and drop this much...
@jclark looks great! A year later, I couldn't be happier with Heretic! I had the same thoughts about all black hardware but honestly I mounted it and never thought about it again until you mentioned it. I originally was going to switch out or modify the hardware so it was all black but doesn't...
Have a Badlands Sasquatch 4 door with hardtop. The rear wiper stopped working. The rear washer works and I went into fuse box and verified the fuse is good. ( in engine /hood area). Looked at connector plug in the rear and unplugged and replugged in. Anyone have any tips? if not fuse assume...
Without the lift
Would not work. Others say it does but with 0 offset wheels and nitro 37s, it didn't work. I'm a big fan of the 37s but I wouldn't recommend throwing them on without the right lift.
with the lift
Although I have badlands Sasquatch the crash bars still needed to be trimmed as...
I just released the end, reversed and then reconnected. They put it on reverse. It was a quick fix once I figured out how to release the plug.
Cameras is good. You can see the bar but barely and doesn’t block view. I did look at the 30” bar but the angle on the dv8 would prevent it from fitting...
I don't have a pic but can get one but camera is not blocked. I CAN see the bar but it's not blocking. I use the camera constantly and it's never in the way. I'm not a big fan of the OEMs that are much taller and this one works without blocking the camera. (or only blocks 1%)
To follow up as the OP. I went 100% with Heretic and am extremely happy with the brand. I do think Heretic, DD, and Baja are all great and if I went with them, I would be happy too based upon all the reviews for all 3 brands. Rigid, I've seen too many people bash the brand so I didn't consider...
Here are a few plus a quick vid of it opening. I did have to use the provided bumper/ body mount washers as it didn't clear the bumper. (look at their instructions on the site). Cleared once I lodged those in. Hope that helps.
Lowering the price as just want to clear out my garage. I prefer local pickup. I've been reluctant to ship however, if someone is up to pay for boxing them up and shipping them, I could ship them. I have nothing that would support the weight of these so would need to go get some boxes, wrap, etc...
