The adaptive cruise is nice along with lane keep assit in a long trip. Shame they didn’t include Blue Cruise though. I notice @Boris_the_Crawler has more miles listed on @VictoryLights tracker than you have.
is your engine in the danger zone? I don't see it listed on @VictoryLights tracker. I am pretty sure anyone who is outside of the hot zones can drive without much concern as you are doing, but those who are in the hot zone can't...
Oh, I think Ford has figured it out a long time ago. Sadly, they don't think we need to know anything. It is unacceptable if they don't have a batch of 2.7 engines sitting somewhere waiting to shipped to people like @Leifvan who have blown engines.
I have experienced-30F every winter here in Alberta Canada, and I have worked where the temp dipped below -40F for more than a week. I am not sure Ford executives know what this is like, but I post a report by someone who lives in the UP to illustrate that it gets this cold in Michigan too...
Had you been somewhere really cold, and were not able find shelter as you did, your failure may have resulted in a bad situation. As long as it has taken FoMoCo to respond to these failures, they had better have a stunning response that will make every 2021 owner happy. This is not a challenge...
If I were you with a 174, I would get out and drive it around civilization to get some miles on the odometer. If you are able to reach 5,000 miles and have an oil change with no excess metal in the folds of the filter, and you can be certain they used 7 qts of oil, not 6 qts, then relax a bit...
I don’t think FoMoCo has a very high priority for App support including the FordPass App. I noticed the off road app they advertised for the Bronco never materialized.
Your internet searching skills are better than mine. It seems Ford purged any reference to My Journeys on the internet, and I could not find a reference that got anywhere near the one you found. I wish I could find an official reference by Ford.ca or Ford.com in North America.
Has Ford stopped supporting the My Journeys tracking and driver analysis? I thought it was a good resource to keep track of how and where I had been driving.
Well, I don’t think @Carolina Jim expects a response. Nor do I or anyone on this thread for that matter, but it is always good to see this thread is in fact still monitored by @Ford Motor Company. I really wish FoMoCo could do the decent thing that humans are capable of doing when they made a...
I am not ready to jump on Ford for the quality issue based on the statement:
"a new supplier that apparently didn’t properly validate those particular components"
Ok, so the ticking valve noises some owners had prior to finding excessive metal particles in the oil filter, which resulted in @Ford Motor Company replacing their engines NOW makes some sense. Not enough oil at the cams and valves assembly due to oil pan design flaws could result in excessive...
