    Creaking mirror on drivers side and Ford in denial

    Same here. It is very intermittent, but the driver's side mirror has had this creaking issue when folding open or closed. I hit it with some WD-40 and it has not made another sound since.

    Autonomous Explorer - self driving

    I do not buy in to the whole autonomous driving thing. I am a pilot and spend the majority of the flight letting the computers do all of the work. A typical flight can be completely hands off from the throttle advance on the take off roll all the way to a Category III landing at the destination...

    Problem with vehicle health report

    I get a discount on my vehicle insurance (State Farm) for sending them a monthly VHR. I believe they use it to track mileage. Same thing for OnStar with my Cadillac.

    Air Bag Light / Seat Belt Warning

    Are you placing a laptop or iPad on the seat? The reason that I ask is that this is a known issue with newer Cadillac models. Laptops/iPads interfere with the sensor (RF issue, I recall?) and cause issues with the airbag display.

    182RG - I am assuming that you are a pilot. Your About Me shows that you enjoy flying and your screen name matches a nice ride from Cessna. I am a pilot as well (ASEL/Instrument). Used to own a Cherokee Cruiser. Now just renting - mostly 172SPs and Cirrus SR22s.

    Reversed Compass Directions?

    That is correct... Another way to illustrate is if you were facing due north in your EX. Start turning to your right. As you are turning right, you are facing more towards the east. Because the index keeps pointing north, the E on the left side of the compass card moves closer to the needle...

    Driver Seat and Foot Well Complaints

    We have a 2016 Platinum and it is very comfortable to drive for long distances. I am not sure about the other trim levels, but the Platinum has adjustable pedal height, adjustable steering column (up/down & in/out) as well as the adjustable seat. That's a lot of ergonomic control. One should be...

    2016 - 2018 Explorer Headlight Question

    The link that DubbsFaris posted are the ones that I purchased - but they are out of stock. I got mine from VLEDs a couple of years ago, but I don't see them there anymore either.:( Randall

    2016 - 2018 Explorer Headlight Question

    And one with both the headlights and high beams on... Note - the attached picture shows a bit of yellow in the high beams. That is just an anomaly with the image. The high/low beams are matched very closely. Randall
