We are spending the winter in Puerto Rico but I get a screenshot of all mail going home in the US and I'm super excited to receive this from Ford this Christmas Eve!! You are never going to believe what it is, but you can see a hint through the scan.

Yep, Ford gifted me a couple more to throw on the pile. I'd trade them all in for a lump of coal.

Mine have all shown up in the Ford(pass) app at least a week before the letters arrive. You can get details there if you’re too excited to wait.

Kind of letting mine pile up also. Taking the position of "If it's not broken, don't fix it". I's sure eventually, something Urgent will come through and I will have to pay attention.

I've not had any recalls (yet) on mine, but I've had a few issued for the wife's GLS. I ignore them too, as I have come to the conclusion they're just opportunities for the Mercedes dealer to try and sell me unwarranted repairs by testing my stupidity meter. Basically, the recall to come in for a computer software update, only to be told my brakes are in need of replacement at $4,000, when I know for a fact there's more than 40% of pad left and the rotors are fine too. Or some widget for the transmission is broken, yet can't provide me with an actual part number as proof at $3,000.

I no longer trust my Ford dealer I bought it from either, which is sad because I like the dealership. But when they told me the exhaust leak at a defective connector was caused by my PPE transmission pan and not by defect at manufacturing, I knew right then and there they're just interested in picking my pocket instead of supporting a customer. They've not seen it since, and won't. Took it to my indi that has fixed our other cars now for last 7 years with no issue, had the connector piece re-seated and tightened back up in 20 minutes of time for $20.

I got a real Christmas gift from Ford credit yesterday.

A letter saying my loan was now paid off.
I just looked at my loan info yesterday, 1 more year if we keep over paying the minimum as we always do.
It''s not uncommon that we just lump sum the last couple of grand just to get it done, so we'll see how it goes!

Funny how a simple mail scan can spark so much hype. I had a similar moment recently and it reminded me of how much a small surprise can brighten the day. I once ordered a few thank you packs from corporate gifts supplier singapore, and that same feeling of waiting for the mystery box to land was half the fun. Hope your package ends up being something cool and worth the tease.

Jumping in on this older post because I’m curious if you ever shared what the surprise gift turned out to be. Ford’s random mail goodies can be hit or miss, so I’m wondering if this one lived up to the hype. Anyone else gotten anything fun from them lately?
Haven't flown back home yet. Will update when I open it.

It was the rear shocks recall, I already knew about it. Luckily it's the only one I have in the app.
