Having a big issue with 2020 Explorer XLT
I got the Pre-collision warning system malfunction. It happened the first time at 5xx miles, and let me tell you guys my experience:
I was driving in heavy traffic on a Houston evening day, then the warning goes off says " Pre-collision assist not available", I think "It might a small issue with the sensor and I will check it in the first maintenance". 5 minutes after the Pre-collision assist stop working another warning pop-up POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION/ REDUCE POWER!!!!!
Then the car doesn't automatically shift up the gear itself, I can feel that because when I accelerate and release the pedal, the car seems stuck in the low gear, and I have to shift up manually anytime I release the pedal.
I took an exit and called immediately to the Ford service and THEY SAID:
" We don't know what happens with the vehicle, maybe it just a little "glitch" with the computer and please turn off entire of the car and re-start it"( It sounds like you call to Microsoft Windows customer service)
I do exactly what they said and the issues are gone. They asked me to bring the car to the service to check, and I said "Ok" it a second part I'm going to tell right below
I couldn't bring the car to the service the day after that because I was super busy at the end of the year. But I had to bring my car to the service after another 7 warnings pop-up again and again. The Ford Service Department returned my car after 2 check-up days and said they couldn't find any issues with the vehicle. WHAT!!! I show them the warnings in Fordpass app and they told me: "We understand but it doesn't help us to find out the issues". It was so frustrating.
I called directly to Ford Company Customer Service and they already had a conversation with the dealership. I will bring my car back to the dealership next week. (Now the warnings still keep popping up.)
