I'm at my wits end on this... I had the Customer Satisfaction Program 17N03 done last year I believe and it seemed fine for a while (or maybe I didn't notice), but I'm getting a bad exhaust smell from the vents coming into the interior cabin - only happens with the AC is on and recirc is on...

I was curious if anyone had pics of both blacked out emblems whether you did yourself or professionaly, OR I wanted to see some pics of our Explorers debadged in the rear. I had a situation where the letter "E" in my tailgate got ripped off from me backing up too far and a tree branch pulled it...

I gotta ask... does Ford intentionally make things break after going over 36K miles? So pissed... my 2015 Explorer warranty just expired and I now have 37K miles. The truck is only 2 yrs old and my AC now blows hot air and my door panel bumps up - must be the glue releasing. Is there anyone...

I would agree that most of these quick lube places aren't trustworthy. And I also agree that you can't even trust some Ford dealers. So where do you go really without trying places until you find one you feel comfortable with. I use to do my own oil changes but life now gets in the way. I...

Thanks guys. I assume "OLM" means oil life monitor? I'm trying to understand how it works. So based on algorithms, it calculates when to change the oil based on how "I" drive the vehicle or other internal engine operating conditions? It's ironic that my last oil change was at 10K miles and...

Hey everyone, I'm due for my 20K mile oil change. I was curious if any of you had changed your oil at your local Valvoline Express Oil location. I been doing it with my Mustang for years and it's been fine. But, with a newer 2015 motor running on specific oil, are their special blends...

Thanks Peter. I checked today and my software is indeed exactly the Version 3.08 you specified above. I'm not sure how to fix this? I removed and added my phone to see if that helps. While playing around in MFT system, I noticed the "Master Reset" button. Do you think that would help? And...

I logged into SyncMyRide yesterday and it said I have the latest version of the software.

Anybody ever get a message that says "All Terrain System Fault" or something along those lines? There's a certain bump in the road when I exit from the gas station I typically fill up at. It's at a corner by a traffic light and I need to hit the gas hard and turn sharply at the same time. The...

Anybody else have a problem with their My Ford Touch system where when you go into the truck to start it up, it defaults back to the BlueTooth setting vs. staying on FM radio where you left it when you turned the vehicle off last? Is there a fix or is this another dealer trip?

I agree that all vehicles have issues. They are just machines. But in plain numbers, the imports still beat the domestics in having a lower number of issues. It's just facts from historical data. I am a die hard Ford fan for life and I support American companies so I'm not going anywhere for...

Wow, seems like I'm not alone on this. The dealer did lube things up and it's slightly better, but still squeaks. My service advisor contacted Ford to see if there's any solution so I hope to hear back from them real soon. It's such a shame that little things like this and all the other...

For those that have the dual panel moonroof, I was curious if any of you have had any issues with the power moonroof shade squeaking when it opens/closes? My Explorer is in Ford service today for a few things but that's one of the items I wanted them to look it. It was very quiet when I first...

Windshield Washer Fluid Stopped Squirting Has anybody had an issue where their windshield washer fluid all of a sudden stopped working? I'm hitting the button and I hear the motor going but the driver's side squirts NOTHING and the passenger side squirts out just a pinch to only cover the...

Does anybody know why Ford chose to give the 3.5L V6 on the 2011+ Explorers a power push only in the upper RPM range? Is it gas mileage? I would think since families probably use it around town that it would be programmed to deliver more low and mid range power to dart forward in traffic and...

Mileage Interval for Oil Changes I'm curious when the majority of people on here are changing their oil in their Explorers? I'm about to turn 10K miles. I did the first oil change at 5K miles and I was thinking of doing my 2nd one at 10K miles since it's a new motor. But in the future...

I think the text messaging feature is great on the MFT system. I do have one question though... when I respond to a text message, can it only be the standard response options that are preloaded? I think you can edit them but of course as each conversation changes, so would those. Can I...

Just an update on this... the software update DID NOT fix my Ambient Lighting issue. I'm not sure about the other 2 things but I'm going in for an oil change in a week or two so I'm gonna have the dealership look at all 3 things. I always say the more options you put in a vehicle, the more...

Thank you guys. I'm gonna try to find the time to do the update this weekend. As busy as it is for me, I actually love this kind of stuff so I wanna do the update and see if it fixes my issues. Otherwise, I am getting an oil change in another 600 miles while I'll pile up quick with my work...

Oh, how do I know if my USB memory stick is formatted to FAT32?

It mentions the latest update on my MFT system is March 24, 2015 when they built the truck for me. Is the Ambient Lighting TSB fixed in that update?

Thanks. I just logged into my account and saw that I do indeed need to get the v3.8 update. Okay, so I've never done this. Is it as simple as plugging in a USB or SD memory card and then just inserting it into the slot in the vehicle? I assume the software upgrade prompts in the system will...

The human eye does a funny thing. In a completely dark road, the lighting will appear brighter because there's no other light anywhere else coming in to take your focus away or minimize the output of your headlights. So it will appear brighter since it's the only light you have on a dark road...

No worries. I took some pics of the stock beam before I upgraded to HID's so I can make certain it lines up properly to the stock setting. My HID's now also look identical. Are you able to see okay with the stock halogens? They were absolutely terrible when I first got the truck. I remember...

Thanks Peter. For the ambient lighting TSB, this applies to the 2011-2014 Explorers. Mine keeps the same color I last had it set to. It's a 2015 Limited.
