Ford Response I'm not sure why it is but for some reason it takes f-o-r-e-v-e-r for the document to download and open up. Even with my high-speed connection it took several minutes...so, if you click and WAIT, you should be able to read it eventually. (Hint: Watch your Internet light to see...

Ford's Response to NHTSA This just in... http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/acms/cs/jaxrs/download/doc/UCM425907/INRL-PE12017-52566.pdf

Last year I ordered an Ex and there was a website where I can watch it en route from the factory to the dealer. Now, I can't find that how to do that again and I'd like to track a new vehicle we just bought. Does anybody know how to access that info without bugging the dealer?

Steering Failure This happened just a few days in our new Explorer with about 5,000 miles. My wife muscled it to the curb (which she said was no easy feat). Glad my teenager wasn't behind the wheel at the time! It's presently in the shop where the dealer has decided it needs a new...

Walmart Directions? When I put in Walmart, I get steered to some place in Central China!

Newest "Feature" No, no, RandyH2, you've stumbled onto another whiz-bang Ford feature in the new Explorer! In addition to all the other neat things the vehicle can do, when you take it shopping, while you're at the checkout and it's parked outside, it senses whether you have two bags or...

Try The Easy Way KidShazam, you've encountered why so many people hate buying a new car and often get ripped off at many dealerships. X-Plan eliminates all this heartache and is the cleanest, simplest (if not always THE cheapest) way to buy a car, unless you or your immediate family qualifies...

Hats Off (Again) To Seni! WOW! That Seni! Not only does she answer our questions and track our cars but she names them, too? What an experience! It's kinda like getting a new Cabbbage Patch doll, isn't it? Does she send out birth certificates, too? Or at least one good for the first...

Way Out There Hey kdog, congrats on the new ride. How does it work when you're Way Out There in HI? You say it's "shipped to you" from the dealer. On the mainland? And is delivery lots more for you than the buyers just down the street from the factory, or does everybody pay the same...

What Kind of Engine "Break-in" Is Necessary? Someone on another thread recently wrote: <<I've also got a road trip coming soon that I'd love to use this car for, but I understand the engine has to be broken in first. >> It got me to wondering...exactly what kind of "break-in period" is...

Scheduled Build Date Coded on Window Sticker In the upper left-hand corner of the window sticker, on the very first line, in the THIRD group of numbers/letters, is a code that starts with 12011... Ignore the 1. 2011 is the year. Then you will see the date that it is presently scheduled to be...

I never tow anything so spent the Tow Package money on other goodies for my new 2011 XLT. Now, my daughter says he's like to carry bikes on the weekend. I see there are aftermarket hitch recepticles available but does anybody know how those would interface with the bumper that's put on the...

X-Plan Alternatives To A Good Deal? Powerofx, X-Plan requires that your employer have a business relationship with Ford or that you're a member of an affinity group which has such a link. As someone pointed out in some recent thread, both Bank of America and American Express have auto buying...
