2022 Explorer ST
Awaiting my ST (blend on 5/29) and the window sticker has just been updated.
In addition to 2ND ROW HTD STS CNTRLS CREDIT and REAR AUXILIARY CNTRLS CREDIT, it now includes HANDS-FREE LIFTGATE DELETE. Anybody else see this in theirs?

As an added bonus, the base sticker price has gone UP $265...........

No one else that I can recall has posted about the Hands-Free Liftgate Delete. It seems like a good thing that more items weren't deleted boosting the price even more. ;) You should get a form that lists the 'deleted' features and which ones will be corrected at a later date.

What form do you speak of? Would this come from the dealer or from Ford?

I believe it comes from Ford. The link shows the forum that I saw on the Lincoln Aviator site but I'm guessing the same would apply to the Explorer.

Your dealer can submit for price protection so you don't pay the $265 as long as your order was placed prior to the increase.

And someone else in a different forum mentioned the liftgate delete on their order.
 






Some Lincoln vehicles also have had the liftgate deleted with no plans to correct it later. I believe this applies to the Handsfree Foot-Activated feature only.

Ours was ordered 5/16, built week of 7/18, and hit the dealer on 8/9. It too had the $265 price increase and it too was missing the hands free tailgate.

Mine was a 6-22 built and it to had a $-55 delete also. It wasn't a ordered ST either though. I believe it was also luck as they were unloading my future ST as I was driving by the dealership and they were just drooling for my trade-in. In all fairness, I hope they have a lot of spare parts.🤣

If you’ve ever had a lift gate unexpectedly hit you in the head, you’ll be thankful for that delete.

I have on a few occasions, but would still prefer to have it. It's a very useful thing to have in my opinion.
