2021 Badlands Sasquatch 2 door with high package., 35K miles, day 1 owner - extended warranty in place. No changes to factory sound system settings or antenna. Vehicle is running perfectly with no drivability issues. All of a sudden I am getting substantial radio interference on stations that...

Finally got round to replacing the stock tranny pan with the PPE black pan today. Dropped the front and mid skid plates, unbolted the swaybar mounts and swung that down. loosened but did not remove the cooler lines. No issues with the heat deflectors. New filter, pan gasket, filter seal and...

2021 Badlands Sasquatch; 29K miles, basically a DD with little to no off-raod use; OK its a pavement princess. Picked up the PPE transmission pan about a year ago and am mentally getting around to installing it. Life and other stuff in general got it the way. Have read and viewed videos on the...

I absolutely will go "scorched earth" on them AFTER I get my vehicle back

PD was the first call I made...Thats how I found out it was a "predatory tow company" from the cop who recognized the first address the Ford app showed the truck at. The question at hand is regarding the location accuracy of the Fordapp.....

I got my 2021 Bronco illegally towed away by a predatory towing company on Friday evening; had it locked with the key fob in it. Local PD has no record of requesting a tow but the first time I checked the Fordpass location the vehicle was at this suspect tow company address. Tow company has...

Latest update: As stated I walked away from the "repaired" buyback vehicle and appreciate everyone's collective opinions and input. I pulled the trigger today on a brand new 11 miles on the odometer 2024 Explorer ST that was discounted 6K . With Ford 1.9% 36 month financing the net overall...

Have decided to pass on this vehicle for the following 3 reasons: 1 - Not a good enough deal/discount to overcome the potential risk 2 - Too many other Explorer STs out there that do not have a history of documented issues. They do, however all have the same risks- oi leaks, cam phasers, rear...

Typically we keep our cars for 250k+ miles/20 years. This one would be replacing a 2004 Tahoe with 276K miles. My 2021 Bronco replaced a 1997 tahoe with 289K miles. HOWEVER, If the Explorer turned out to be a mistake, I'd look to unload it.

I now have the FORD service history(Thank you Ducati1098 !) as written up by ford techs. Earliest complaint is on 11/2023 at 500 miles - an oil leak which they R&R'd a turbo oil tube first and then the entire turbo unit; at the same time they had a rear camera issue which was on a recall. Next...

Apologize in advance if this is in the incorrect forum but I respect this communities opinion. Vehicle is not a bronco but rather a 2023 Ford Explorer ST. I have the opportunity to pick up a 2023 Explorer ST(wifes ride) that shows a carfax history of being a "Manufacturer Reacquired" vehicle(a...

Decide EXACTLY where you want to visit before pulling the trigger on a rental car. We went Lisbon to Cascais/Estoril(stayed a week) then on to Porto(stayed an additional week). Aside from the initial ride from the airport in Lisbon to Estoril the rental car sat unused for the first 7 days...

Just saw this as I was traveling back to my B&B in Estoril Portugal. No idea how they navigate the narrow backstreets of Europe. My quick search shows it with a cost fo around 135K Euros..... Tbruz

Badbuckeye, I'll split a set with you. Will need to figure out the logistics-and split a set of harnesses as well. Tbruz
