    Ford has released tsb for squeaking brakes!!!!

    So i got my X back today and the brake squeak was fixed. New pads and they resurfaced the rotors and what ever else was required on the TSB. So far so good. Will be able to tell on the next rainy day here in CT. Thanks Cory.

    Fix for Streaking Windows!!!

    I had my window streaks done just yesterday and picked up the X today and tested it and glad to say no streaks. I also had the brakes done and no squeak on them either so far. Hopefully, this will be the last time i have to take my X to the dealership until my first service. Thanks Cory.

    Power Liftgate

    Update for you all. My dealership finally got the part in for the lift gate on Thursday this past week. She called me up and let me know it was in and asked when I could come in.

    Power Liftgate

    Update: I spoke with the service manager who is handling the lift gate issue and she said the latch mechanism is on back order and it is a known problem. So probably will take two weeks to get the part in to fix it. So those of you who have the problem should take it to the dealer to try to get...
