  1. That's good info. I have cooled seats, but the dealer and some internet searches say there are no filters anymore.
  2. Anyone with any sense knew this would happen. I warned people, but now those I know who voted for this act like they didn't know who he was?
  3. So there are 3 separate drivetrain fluids......transmission, PTU, and RDU? Just want to verify that to see what I want to get changed.
  4. I have a 22ST nearing 30,000 miles. I've seen several different posts in the past about changing these fluids, but are a bit confusing to me. Are there 3 different parts that need the fluid changed. I've seen PTU, rear differential, but I assume there is also a regular transmission that needs it too? I know some have changed their own, but I don't really have a way to lift the vehicle level and just don't feel like doing it myself. Will probably go to the dealer as I have a bunch of Fordpass points. What am I looking at as far as cost, and should all 3 be changed around 30k miles? Thanks!
  5. As mentioned, the system does this on its own.
  6. Do you have a different type of case on the new phone? Try it without the case. Some cases don't work well with wireless charging.
  7. What I'm talking about is when you have the radio display showing on the large portrait-oriented screen in the middle of the dash on the 22 ST, and the song title playing is longer than maybe 15 characters, it just cuts off the rest of the title. Prior to the 22 ST I had a 2011 Fusion and a 2017 Fusion. On both of those you could touch the display where the song title was located, and it would scroll right to left with the full title. I even think it scrolled on some songs automatically. Sometimes, with Sirius, they show the year of the song's release date at the end of the title, but I can't see it. Not sure why Ford would take away something so basic that was available in 2011.....or maybe there is a way to do it and I can't find it. The screen does this on both FM and Sirius stations. Anyone find a way to do it? Maybe Forscan?
  8. It is in the very back of the area where the roof opens on the right (passenger) side. There is a silver metal clip, almost hook shaped, that goes over a metal thin rod that goes from the left to right side of the vehicle in the back. It is very hard to see. You have to push the left side of your head against the glass (with the sunscreen cover all the way open of course) and look towards that back passenger side corner. I got one of those very small eyeglass screwdrivers and put a thin piece of cloth about 1/2 inch square over the end of the screwdriver and pushed it between the silver metal springlike hook that goes over the bar and the rattle/ticking is gone! I have had mine work its way out a few times and had to push it back in.
  9. It is definitely the lane centering. I took my Edge on a 1,000 mile roundtrip jaunt over the last 4 days with almost all freeway driving, so I used the cruise for hours at a time. A few times I heard the chime and the steering wheel was orange. Most of the time it was caused by the lane lines not marked clearly, or the sun was reflecting on the road and the camera probably couldn't get a clear image. It just seems like that's what it should do, to let you know to pay attention and seems like a good idea to me. There certainly is no malfunction.

    Spare Tire?

    Have you tried to put the spare on the car? I know this may have been discussed before, but there is a good chance it won't fit, in addition to the AWD issues a different size spare causes mentioned by others above. I had a Fusion Energi PHEV prior to the 22 Edge ST I now have. It had regenerative brakes, which I believe are a bit larger than the regular brakes, or somehow makes the hub a different size, I don't know the techs about that. The car didn't come with a spare, and there is no option to get one from any Ford dealers. The reason is the rims weren't deep enough to allow for the size of the calipers to be able to attach the lug nuts. I went to 3rd party sites that said they sold spares that were compatible......none of them fit. The fact there wasn't an option when I ordered my ST and wanted to get the brake package tells me it could be the same issue. I took several long road trips through Wyoming and Montana and there is no way I would go up there without a spare, so what I did is I found the dealer had an extra wheel that matched my Fusion, so they gave me a deal if I bought new tires, which I needed anyway, and put my best old tire on that rim....so I had a spare! I would at least try the one you bought and make sure it fits and you can tighten all the lugs.

    Spare Tire?

    I have a 22 ST and purposely didn't get the performance brake package for that reason. Not going without a spare. As luck would have it, I hit an object on a freeway with my ST and one of the crappy Hankooks sidewall blew out. Was out in the middle of nowhere. Put the spare on and 10 minutes on my way. The inflator kit would have been useless.
  12. I just got around to checking on this again last week. I disabled the predictive destination.....and no more double chimes when starting! Thanks!! Still not sure why you have to disable this for it to work right.
  13. I found that if I turn the car off first, then turn off the radio it didn't come back on upon a restart. I haven't noticed it doing it in a long time though, no matter what I do. I believe some recent updates may have cleared the issue.
