What happened to ASS?

[Dmorty217]

I paid $100 for an ASS plug to turn that shit off, consider yourself lucky

So did I. Between that and the double honk, someone should be slapped at Ford… all car makers at this point for that matter. My brand new Chevy 1500 work truck does all the same dumb shit

So ASs is to save on gas
Now you get a $100 plug and use more gas

Funny how that ASs plug works

I normally cruise around in Normal mode with the Auto Start/Stop engaged. The other day, while sitting at a red light, I noticed the ASS didn’t kick in. I manually disengaged it, then re-engaged it. Still doesn’t seem be active regardless of heater, lights, AC being on or off.

Did Ford quietly make it go away with a software update?

Not complaining mind you, just curious.

This happened to my dad’s Maverick. He reset the battery and it started functioning normally again.

My ASS is just lazy….

Sorry to hear your in the dog house

Joke's ASSide, have you changed your brake pedal foot pressure at all? Too light on the brake and your ass won't engage.

I actually use this as a technique when I know I'm not going to be stopped long and let the starter live 1 out of a bajillion more starts

Wish mine would stop working. I hate it. I have the override but still have to install it.

I don’t mind it on my BMW much (but I keep it off and BMW remembers if you turn it off next time you start up).

I hate it on my Bronco though. I figured out why. First off, a lot of times it’s pretty abrupt on my Bronco. Subconsciously it feels like I’m stalling out. I have an auto bronco but I’ve driven a bunch of manuals in my life. I think it feels like a mind *&$@, like you’re about to take off at a red light and accidentally mess up the clutch and stall out.

It doesn’t help that the first few weeks of having my bronco my battery was apparently low or something and I was first in line at a red light. ASS kicked in, but when it went to start back up everything just died and stayed dead for like 3 minutes.

I'm starting to get so used to ASS that I keep expecting it from my other vehicle as well. Before I had it, I never thought I'd be an ASS man.

I'm super disappointed in B6G for being 2 pages in, and nobody's posted this. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

I think his post was more about him not getting any ASS, man.

I don't know brake pedal foot pressure was a service item.

Either sport mode or just go through all that work to push the button all the way over in the middle of the dash.
I guess I am old school and want it to shut off when I get where I am going.

Best quote of the thread right there bud

So typical. Everyone who wants ASS isn't getting any and everyone who keeps getting ASS is tired of it.
