Hello all,
This is my first post. We have a 2010 XLT that my wife drives. It's been a good vehicle. We've owned it about two years now, purchased it with around 130k miles, it now has about 150k. We've only done the normal oil changes on it.
I'm ready to get into some deeper maintenance on it. I want to drain/replace the tranny fluid, most of the other fluids (coolant, power steering, brake fluid flush, diff fluid, etc.). What else should I be looking at?
We have a few nagging issues with it as well:

We have a few nagging issues with it as well:
- Airbag light is on (don't have a scan tool, anyone happy with the blue driver?) . It came on during a long trip, after I had adjusted the passenger seat. We had a dealership check it out about when it happend, and they said the passenger seat rail needed to be replaced to the tune of 800 bucks.
- Left rear door "sticks" sometimes when opening. To open it without a loud pop, you need to close it most of the way then open it again.
- brakes seem sluggish. You need to push pretty hard on them when stopping from say 60. Pedal is firm, not soft like air in the lines. She's used to it, but I notice a big difference between it and my ride.
- light thud when getting on and off the gas (u-joint starting to go bad?)
- has slight hesitation (misfire?) when climbing a steady low incline at low speed (1500rpm)
