Not sure of 2020 but I would hope that the technology carried over from 2018 and may help with the gate opening. The 2018 had a feature that allowed the lift gate to be opened to a certain point by power. For my case it was about 3/4 open. I used the 3/4 to avoid it getting caught on the...

Remember either with the COVID-19/pandemic 2020 was not a standard year as we have all seen. Pretty much every industry was affected and vehicles were no exception in fact probably more weird equipment/color options. Some vehicles were either re optioned for equipment/packages and or certain...

I personally say that ANY Metal coming out of the oil pan except for the metal of the drain plug itself is BAD!!! I agree with ticking time bomb and next time it might not give you the courtesy of being close to home or already immobilized where you have a choice of what troubleshooting steps...

Try a different dealer and get it documented. It should be covered.

It took me the same 90 minutes on my 2017 Acura DVD map update but...2017 model and had a January 2020 database and yes I had to pay but got a fairly current database. As another comparison my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee was purchased 7/24 with a 6/15/20 build date and 1/2020 map update. About two...

If the update is FREE then that is about the only way I would do it. Remember that is 1/19 as in January 2019 map database. Think about this we are almost 2022 so even a “Update”’is still two years old. Yes better than nothing but very pathetic that they only update maps every two years. At...

It is a start but we are almost 2021 and still running a 2019 map database. I am out of the Ford family Now but at least give people a choice of paying or not at least make something available. I am not saying every month but every year.

You can’t for SYNC3. You are at the mercy of when the nav vendor does the update which is way too infrequent. I got my 2018 Sport in August 2018 and it had a 2016 Database. Even the one that was supposedly released in the fall of 2019...not all VINS are part of the update. That database...

BF Goodrich Duelers based on my previous experience. 23.9K and BFG were installed around 2K proper rotate/balance run great. No excessive road noise and smooth ride. Rotate/balance every 6K and Inalso had a alignment package from NTB so not a problem there. I see the Pirelli Scorpion Verde...

The most obvious first step would be Remove Platinum cluster, re connect the OEM cluster and verify operation of all functions, warning lights, pages, scroll menu etc.... After that try to verify software update. The only thing after that would be ensure that the Platinum cluster was even a...

Basic removal/installation is not overly complicated. I never had a chance to change mine before trade but if anything like my Taurus SHO the back plugs at least for that vehicle I removed the strut tower cross brace. Very simple, look for the bolts I believe the inboard bolts for the strut...

Personally I used and would strongly recommend Weather Tech NO DRILL. Took about 30 minutes for all four corners. A touch pricey but if installed correctly they should stay on forever.

The physical connection and electrical hookup for the regular IPC and Platinum IPC are exactly the same and the IPC will work with pretty much all functions, the major ones at least, Speed, Tach, Fuel, Coolant, warning lights, etc. There are a couple of minor features that you can add to a...

Has it been an excessive amount of moisture and has the vehicle sat idle for more than about two-three days? Rust accumulates on the rotor surface and feels like it is grabbing. Commonly called Lot Rot, Normally either works itself out after a bit of driving and the rust gets baked off by the...

To help answer the question better, you need tp give us a little more background of the vehicle? 1000mile road trip but what is the mileage that you are beginning with? 10K, 30K, 75, K, 110K etc...... That said I just took my 2018 Sport for a roughly 2000 mile R/T end of May. Started around...

i don’t believe the quality and ride comfort of the Bilsteins are in question. I was convinced of Bilsteins about two hours after switching from OEM on my 2003 Durango. The bigger question and remember part of not most of the supply/inventory problem with abilities and pretty much every major...

Good to know that in 17 years the code didn't change. Means the same as a 03 Explorer as it does on a 2018 Sport. Disconnected the IATS to swap back the air filter box back to OEM and apparently forgot to re connect the IATS. Kept getting MIL and couldn't figure out what. Finally read the...

What’s to say the OEM vendor can’t have the same quality control issues. Only difference between OEM is the warranty but remember. If the struts fail wary warranty or not the dealer is going to replace with the potentially same vendor that caused the early failure in the first place.

ShouldnI day I would have sucked up paying to have someone transfer the coil spring over IF I could have found Bilsteins...ONLY Bilsteins. Problem solved with the Monroe QSA. And hate to sayit that I bet other manufacturers are losing a market share but their business mode not mine!!

I had forgotten about BFG’s at Costco. They made a change fairly recently about outside tires. Basically they will not touch tires unless you purchased from them except for maybe N2 top off and possibly patch/plug. My Michelin Pilot Sport 3’s we’re grandfathered in even though they were...

I am personally going to give my plug for Bridgestone Duelers or Michelin Defenders. If you showed Hankook Venus Nobles I would tell you to get a MRI for trauma. I am not sure about Pirelli and BF Goodrich on SUV’s in general. I have had good luck with Michelin Defenders and Bridgestone Dueler...

Not personally but I would be skeptical if they did. With same day service I would be thinking they are just removing the corrosion and treating the initially affected area. Yes anyone can remove corrosion, prep prime paint, bond clear l, let it dry and that sounds about right. Some...

Pretty much yes. Dealer advised me that the hood is stamped, coating applied. Shipped to dealer for prep/prime/paint/Blend to match. This has apparently been a fairly ongoing issue for many years across multiple fleets and model years. I would think after the first year or two they would get...

You need to get it taken care of while it is small. Don’t wait if the replacement hood fails them have them do it again. A couple of major notes. If you had ClearBra be prepared to shell out some coin$$$! For replacement since even though the hood has to be replaced due to their negligence...

There is a major flaw in the theory well multiple but this is the one I will focused on. I went through the same deal with my 2018 Hood Corrosion. It went on for front fender damage. The hood was discovered and I asked them to take care of it while it was in the shop and not require a second...
