    Stealth Wheels on Platinum?

    I like more chrome and less alloy color. I like my black on red a lot. I have thought about deleting my chrome but feel it would be too dull. Also consider a pillar color delete with the red but don't want that dark. I think the blackout look is a bit older style now but can still look good.

    A year that DOESN'T have massive transmission issues?

    Based on my Transmission experience getting my fluid changed, it isn't an easy task. I used a reputable shop away from the dealer and had to bring it back to them three times. I am wondering if it isn't the thermostat but could be the part that allows the tranny fluid to go to the exchange where...

    Rear spoiler third light replacement

    Part number: JL1Z13A613C After my large issue with backing into a half open garage door, I found my third middle high light (lots of different descriptions I found) doesn't work. Getting it off was a pain to figure out. Posting here to save somebody else time and feel better about mine being...

    Rear glass replacement

    The part number wasnt the issue, manf is XYG. It was a bad batch. Another brand was what worked. It wasn't OEM, though that is what we would do if the other didn't fit. My glass guy is Peterson Auto glass. If you call him, I am sure he would remember. He said he hasn't had more than 2 bad glass...

    Module reflash/ reprogram- worth it?

    I called the CNA folks but didn't get far. Talked with a lawyer friend who suggested trying again and elaborating that the sections are misleading. You can see in the attached document (excluded personal info), the preferred plus doesn't cover it but the SUV section does. The guy on the phone...

    Module reflash/ reprogram- worth it?

    Dealer replaced the latch. $800 not covered by warranty. I never tried to do anything with FORScan. They did need to program the new latch and clear the dtcs they said for it to work properly. Before they reprogrammed it wouldn't raise with the motor, only manually.

    Rear hatch stuck

    Welp, bad latch diagnosed and replaced by dealer. It was not covered on warranty. $800 dollar repair. Looks like you can get the latch from the dealer for $150. My repair techs had a hard time removing the plastic with the door latched. They couldn't or didn't use the procedure shown above. I...

    Module reflash/ reprogram- worth it?

    Thanks Loki, appreciate the help. I was hoping to not have to tear into the tailgate. Maybe I will just wait and let the dealer do it. My warranty should cover the faulty switch but probably not the software flash/update as it doesn't seem to clarify updating electronics and software as within...

    Module reflash/ reprogram- worth it?

    2019 Expedition Platinum FORScan v2.3.57 (Vlinker Connection device) I have an issue with my rear tailgate- https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/rear-hatch-stuck.54974/ It won't open. I am told I need to re-program my RGTM module at the dealer from a former Ford tech of 30 years. I have...

    Quick question on vehicle sounds - interior

    Based on my experience with my electric stuff and the rear hatch. A hard reset, both battery cables off for 10 mins does a reset that should fix the sound coming from the dash vs the stereo unless the modules are corrupt. If they are corrupt, a dealer needs to repair it.

    Rear hatch stuck

    So update on my end... since Khammer said he had some DTC's, I looked to see if I had any with Forscan, couldn't find any related to the tailgate that I could tell. I phoned a friend who has a friend that has access to Ford Access, he was able to remote into my car using my Vin and find that...

    Rear hatch stuck

    This is what I expect with mine. Believing these are all electrical and not cable driven presents more electrical faults with more wires to each switch. I have an appt at the dealer with warranty but not sure this would be covered.
