    Recall consists of: Part PB5Z-13234-B ------- Wiring and SOC Part JL7Z-19G490-F ------- 23S23 Camera When replacing a camera, it does need to be programmed to the vehicle which a dealer needs to do. A 3rd party mechanic may have access to it through their computers but it is not plug and...

    Suing Ford for Lemon - Lemon Law

    Wow, New Mexico has by far the worst lemon law I have ever seen. 1 year from date of delivery... I've seen 18 months and 24 months... but never 12 months before.

    Ford Says It Will Take $270 Million To Fix Camera Issues

    I didn't miss your point. I think your point is flawed. Of course they test them but when you have a dozen or two preproduction vehicles, it's not the same as 3/4 of a million on the road. My 2020 with 74k had its camera replaced once and haven't had an issue since. My sister in laws 2021...

    Ford Says It Will Take $270 Million To Fix Camera Issues

    Because it was an issue with the circuit boards inside the cameras. They now have to be replaced at Fords cost and then pay dealers labor to replace them all.

    Update For Rear Camera Recall Disabled My Explorer Today!

    It is not a requirement on a used vehicle and you can refuse it.

    New Member from Ye Olde England with a new 2023 ST-Line in GA with rust spots on the bodywork.........

    Bondo on a new car?? The damaged tailgate would be covered by Ford if it was in transit damage. Absolutely not. I would have walked away from the deal.

    Where can I get one of these fasteners?

    Man ,I am glad I read this. I've been having that rattling on the highway.. sounded like it was in the B pillar or rear passenger door. Checked under each today and was missing 2, the panel was flopping around. Went out and got the fender washers and m6 nuts.. all tight and finally quiet on...

    NHTSA Probe Opened Over Rear Axle Recall

    How is this possibly caused by the recall? “The vehicle would randomly slam to a complete stop while driving,” one of the complaints reads. “It happened several times with three different drivers (myself, my wife, and my son), each happening at 30-35 mph or less.”

    360 back up camera recall 2020-2023 models - FSA 23S02

    I haven't been following this in depth. My 2020 had the latest software/recall update done back when it came out in March (or there abouts) and haven't had any issues with it (yet). The camera was replaced once too last year I think. If it's a camera issue, I'd think it would still be faster...

    360 back up camera recall 2020-2023 models - FSA 23S02

    I'm surprised they aren't shipping them to let the dealers hold them. If it will be a software update, the dealer can flash it and send it. Filling up the storage lots will take forever to clear them, especially with the rail shortage adding to it.

    2024 Ford Explorer News & Updates

    lol, so the photographer couldn't walk around the vehicle to take a picture of the front? From the side, I see some Lincoln built into it.

    Customer Service Program 22N17

    Just had all 7 of mine replaced a couple weeks ago. Drivers was peeling and Lincoln dealership replaced all. This must have been in the system for a while before the letters were sent out. Assuming this issue has finally been fixed once and for all since they want all to be replaced.

    Fumoto Valve

    I drain it from the top and don't ever bother going from underneath. Much easier standing up and doing the changes. I do it this way on all my vehicles.

    Leak

    typically they are behind the center stack towards the bottom. If you click the link, you will see a parts layout diagram. Looks like it's towards the center at the bottom of the center console. Majority of times, the dash has to be pulled. I just went through a blend door failure on my VW...

    Solved Missing Part - towing eye

    As linked by Peter and others, the tow hook eye was removed mid production of 2020. The same plastic part is being used as I'm sure it would cost more to remanufacture it as a solid piece so it's continued to be used. Your dealer should know this by now being it hasn't been installed for 3 years.

    Lovely visit to the dealer

    8yr/150k. It will be covered. It goes in on Tuesday for that and no AC for the 3rd time since owning it. Seems I have a very slow refrigerant leak. They refill/charge thebsystem and it's good for the summer and then winter comes, don't use it and by the time spring comes, it's empty again...

    Lovely visit to the dealer

    So I have to update this because all I can do is laugh in frustration.. I have to give props to the Loncoln dealership, they fixed every single thing I told them.. none of this "can't duplicate" crap. There was one thing I mentioned to them that started happening in October. We use the easy...

    2022 2.3L Slow to shift from drive to reverse

    I was the one that posted it before. What you are quoting from the manual is 100% incorrect. It is possible and it does have a dipstick as I stated previously.

    I don't know what you are saying here... however, our transmissions have dipsticks.

    360 back up camera recall 2020-2023 models - FSA 23S02

    That's what mine was doing, the initial 1-2 seconds when going into reverse and only after the first startup Got it updated yesterday and so far so good. Will be watching.

    200 Miles and already disappointed.

    Because Ford pays for the recall to be done.

    Liftgate issue

    This is when I find a new dealer. If a trained tech actually tries to blame something that isn't even remotely tied together .. see ya... Don't want them working on my vehicle.

    200 Miles and already disappointed.

    Used cars can be sold, new ones can NOT be sold with an open recall. https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-recalls-defects/car-recall-guide-your-questions-answered-a1115780728/ "Federal law specifically bans the sale of new cars with open recalls, but no similar law exists for used"...

    200 Miles and already disappointed.

    Dealerships can't sell vehicles with active recalls. All recalls need to be performed before it can be sold.

    200 Miles and already disappointed.

    The grey seems to be new since the update. Prior to this latest recall update, it was always green or blue. As far as vibration in the steering wheel, a simple tire/wheel rebalancing should fix it. If they are out of balance, request a road force balance.

    2022 2.3L Slow to shift from drive to reverse

    Yup, tiny dipstick, has the numbers 1-6 on it and depending on trans model, the range varies. Barely any room above it to get it out since you have to pull straight up and better wear a heat protective glove.
  36. blwnsmoke

    2022 2.3L Slow to shift from drive to reverse

    There is a dipstick under the car on the side of the trans between it and the exhaust pipe. Has to be at operating temp so high risk of getting burned on the exhaust.

    Would adding an “EXPLORER” emblem to hood of my 2021 Limited increase the chances of paint bubbling in front end of hood?

    Thank goodness it doesn't appear the 6th gen has any issues with paint peeling. Pretty confident in saying that issue has been resolved since the plagued 5th gen and other Ford's like the expedition.

    A New Recall

    The link states the recall is 23S05 and letters will be mailed next month. Nothing to do with the one you linked.

    360 back up camera recall 2020-2023 models - FSA 23S02

    Yes but the recall isn't replacement. Yours obviously had a defective camera but that's not what this recall is. Purely software.
