Other than software related problems, they have several mechanical issues that Ford is aware of. Two of which have technical service bulletins. Ford wants to decrease warranty spend right now, so I'm sure they have a large team working on remedying the issues if they haven't already.

Why would they use bags? Facepalm... Go get them road-forced like Razor suggested.

Ford doesn't need to authorize the engine. The dealer told you that? I could believe that the engine is on backorder...

$1k for an ABS grille?! Think I'll wait until I can get one over the Ford's parts counter. They will not be that much.

This is the one that I PDI'd Wednesday. Don't normally do PDI's. I saw it in the back lot when I came back from lunch. Ran up to our manager "GIVE ME THE BRONCO PDI!!!" Loved everything about it. Even the navy pier interior.

I am currently prepping a FE with the 2.7. The oil level is dead nuts at the top of the hashes. This was after the 15 minute drain back. Just seeing if maybe they updated the dipstick. The engineering number on this one is FT4E-6750-BF.

Bumping this. I am currently prepping a FE with the 2.7. The oil level is dead nuts at the top of the hashes. This was after the 15 minute drain back. Just seeing if maybe they updated the dipstick. The engineering number on this one is FT4E-6750-BF.

Unfortunately, this is not uncommon. It's an industry wide issue. Probably crosses industries, actually. Cooling systems are just SO complex these days. Gone are the days of six hose clamps on the entire vehicle. Now it's more like 30-50.

You cannot disable it with FDRS.

OP read like an AVE video... Love it.

Three simple words. CHANGE YOUR OIL! I see lots of early 3.5 failures caused by lack of maintenance. The 10k or whatever interval Ford says is hooey.

It's the low pressure fuel pump priming the high pressure pump. All direct injected fords do this. It's tied to the park light signal over high speed CAN I think. If you can't stand it, unlock your doors with the fob from a distance I guess.

$1000? To save you from asking someone to give you a hand?

Correct. Ford Premium care covers all of those modules. The only things they don't cover are wear and tear, rodent damage, maintenance items, etc. Pretty expensive though.

TrailRecon on YouTube claims that this has Amp Research power running boards. I would be very interested in that! Nothing on there website.

Walter: ...and Dude, Chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian American.

Let me preface this with saying I am a Ford mechanic. The screens are very robust. The only times I have replaced them have been due to physical damage. Slow to respond or no response is a software issue. I haven't had to do anything with Sync 4 yet, but all previous releases have had those issues.

This is not true. If you lost the card and forgot the code you have to buy a new keypad and program it. No modules store the code. It is stored on the transmitter itself. The BCM just sees it as another fob. If the keypad were hardwired, that would be a different story.
