  1. I know. It just doesn't make sense. How in the world could Ford be so careless. What are they doing wrong? No wonder everyone is buying the competition. I get it, with all the technology packed into today's vehicles, there will be issues. But Ford is screwing up big time. My ST has not had this issue. But there have been plenty of other small issues that make me wonder??? Did I buy a piece of Junk????
  2. Thank you for that info. Next service I'm going to have them check it. Luckily, I am still under warranty. Much appreciated!
  3. You have an ST. Not an Edge Sport. Ford has already done everything for you. 20 HP over the Sport. 10% stiffer in the front, 20 % in the back. Monotube shocks instead of twin tube. You have sport mode if you feel like you need it, even though 90% you don't. Also, you can double tap the ESC button and put the advancetrac into sport mode. A hidden gem with the ST The ST is everything the Sport wishes it could be. Don't change anything. Mine does have the Performance Wheel and Brake package which makes all the difference in the world. The Pirelli Pzeros turn it into a true performance SUV. . Trust me, you don't need all that tuning crap. You already have it. You have an ST
  4. Yes please give us much more detail. I would like to know what switch you are talking about.
  5. Seems like there was a time when extended warranties were a waste of money. Now days an extended warranty is probably one of the best investments you can make. Way too much crap on today's vehicles and guaranteed something will fail.
  6. I feel pretty confident doing my first PTU and RDU service. I'll probably take it to my dealer for the transmission service. More so, just concerned that they actually do it. And do it right! Being on this Forum gives me so much valuable information. Including a lot more confidence in doing some of my own maintenance. Thanks to everyone!
  7. In my opinion, it is a great way to clean your vehicle. Especially the wheel wells and undercarriage. How much PSI is it? That would tell a lot about your question. Depending on how strong it is, you need to learn how to use it and not get too close to certain areas and parts of the vehicle.
  8. Makes perfect sense. If they can charge you a ridiculous amount of money to do it at the dealership, as opposed to a 10 dollar bottle you can do yourself. I run a bottle of Chevron Complete fuel system cleaner with a full tank of gas about every 3-4 thousand miles.
  9. Morgant513, I am guessing if you have the exact same issue, you have tried to tighten the trim screws holding the fabric liner to the fender well. As you can see from previous posts, this solved our issue. Please provide more detail if your issue is different.
  10. As ignorant as I am, why is a transmission fluid change so complicated. An engine oil change is so easy compared to a transmission service.
  11. Even though I hate it and will never use it, I do like having the ability to turn it on or off. \ Part of my start up process is push the start button, push the brake release button and disable the ASS 🤣.
  12. I am ordering the Start Stop eliminator. Cannot wait to install it and be done with the Start Stop BS. Pisses me off every time I start the vehicle and forget to turn it off.
  13. Not an afterthought. Mine is the same. If you are not using the vehicles cellular network (like most of us), you probably do not need it. Of course, if you try to unplug it or remove it, the car probably self-destruct! The check engine light will flash, and all the gauges will go haywire! So sad how all these 'modules' depend on each other and are linked together. Break one link and all hell breaks loose!
  14. Thanks for the information. I will check that cable for sure. For some reason in the back of my mind, I thought about what garycrist had posted. With all the technology around us -RF interference/radio waves/cell towers/Wi-Fi etc. all it would take is being in the right place at the wrong time. When these systems get interfered with, they get confused and go crazy. I feel like the dealer is going to tell me they couldn't find anything and everything is ok. Unless it happens again at which point I am driving it directly back to the dealer without shutting the car off so they can see what I am talking about. I will definitely give an update when I know more. Thanks for all the great info.
