    Just called my dealer. He said it was not an actual TSB but was updated instructions in their repair manual since the first time they painted it. He is e-mailing me the sheet and I will forward it to you.

    List of Useful Threads Hood Paint bubble issue only

    Shift to Park Warning

    I had the same issue. Brought it in to the dealer, according to the receipt they "adjusted shift cable". It is better but not completely gone. Now happens 1-2x a week where it previously occurred every day.

    Explorer A-Pillar Rattle/Noise

    Ford customer service contacted me and contacted my dealer before I even brought my Explorer in. It went in this morning and I also video taped the noise this past weekend and played it for my service guy today. He said he had seen the problem twice before but my rattling sound was much louder...
