    Must pay to sell?

    Hi everyone, Its been awhile since I posted here because I turned in my Explorer and did not get another one. I can tell you that there are no forums on the Internet that compare to this one as far as participation and info. I purchased a Fusion and the forums are just not as enthusiastic...

    New SD Card/Update is out.

    I received a letter that a new update is available. I logged onto syncmyride and it had me fill out a request for new SD card. FedEx will have mine here today. No charge to customer. This update looks like it will be like my 2013 Fusion layout.

    I Selected Advanced for the MFT - MyFord Touch Voice Command Menu Setting

    I went in and changed the setting to "Advanced" in the voice command section of the settings menu and I really like the extra speed and not having to hear the sync lady state "say a command" every time I push the voice button. If the system fails to recognize what your asking it to do after a...

    Easiest Oil Change Ever!

    I performed my first oil change and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the oil filter was to get to! My previous vehicles were not easy and made for a very messy job. However, only after changing my oil and starting my vehicle did I realize that there was no oil pressure gauge. I'm not...

    Feed back from watching the new MFT youtube video.

    I watched the Youtube video and I noticed that in the lower left corner, the Sirius info would cycle between station name, artist and song. I believe that this is a step backwards from having all the information static on the screen. Drivers will have to take their eyes off the road more...

    I swear I hear a fan noise when I turn on my Heated Seats.

    I know the fans under the seats turn on when you select the A/C option and they are rather noisy but recently I have been using my heated seats and I can hear a fan noise revving up and slowing down. Anybody else hear noise when using their heated seats?

    Dealer refusing to fix streaky windows

    My service writer is stating that Ford will not perform the TSB because I have my front windows tinted. Has anybody had this TSB performed after their windows were already tinted?

    Ford vehicles will read you text messages while you drive.

    Here is an interesting article from today on CNN in regards to Ford releasing a sync update to allow text messaging to be read aloud. http://edition.cnn.com/2011/10/18/tech/innovation/ford-vehicles-read-texts-mashable/ It states that 2012 vehicles already have this so I'm guessing that it's...

    Many times when I follow the procedure to remote start me Explorer, the lights will come on after pressing the lock button twice but will not start.

    Next major revision of MFT is April of 2012?

    According to the service writer at my selling dealer, Ford rep told them next major software update is April 2012. He said the Ford rep stated any software releases before that would just be Band-aid" updates.

    Question for those with proximity entry/push button start.

    When your Explorer is locked and you have your key in your pocket, if you push the liftgate button, does the liftgate open or do you have to unlock your vehicle first? I thought I used to be able to walk up to the vehicle even if it was locked and push the liftgate button and it would open...

    Is there a molded insert that goes around the spare tire?

    I thought there was and it included the plastic gas nozzel incase you needed to fill up with a can?

    I bet a new MFT version is being built from the ground up.

    Ford would not admit to this as we would all want constant details regarding the progress but it only makes since that they understand the severity of the MFT situation so they must have one team working on stability/patches (2.11) for the current build and a new team developing a new version...

    Had to pull negative battery cable but it's been awhile.

    The screen/box that comes up in the middle that tells you you reached your destination along with the states would not go away. The silhouette of the box stayed on the screen until I forced a system maintenance by pulling the battery cable. It also fixed my travel link info. The system has...

    Please Help - No rear tail lights or boat trailer lights.

    Front marker lights work. Hazards will flash rear amber and trailer brake lights. I'm going to get on the expressway as it is just about dark. Can this be a fuse for the rear marker lights? Rear brake lights work too. Thanks! Heading home.

    Just took Explorer on 1100 mile trip.

    Just got back from Hershey, Pennsylvania with the family. Had a great trip and loved Chocolate World! The Explorer proved to be a great vehicle and pleasure to drive. MFT rebooted twice during the trip but otherwise performed remarkably well. I loved how the wife could be looking for POI on...

    DTE not accurate?

    I was showing an average of 23.9 mpg on my display when I filled up and my DTE only stated 357 Explorer has an 18.6 gal tank. Even @ 23 mpg x 18 = 414
