    Integrated Brake Controller Problem

    I have an annoying problem with the integrated brake controller on my 2016. If I want to adjust the brake power I have to repeatedly press on the "-" button to get it to respond, which it eventually does. The "+" button works fine. Is this a known problem? How can I determine if the problem is...

    Coolant Pump Leak

    I had a leaking coolant pump a year ago and it was replaced. Now I have overheating problems again. Does this picture indicate another leaking coolant pump? If so can any experienced eyes tell if that mark/stain is fresh or at least a year old? Thanks!

    Burning Smell From Front Wheels

    Traveling downhill on a steep and narrow rocky mountain pass, first gear only, can't go faster than two to three MPH, in 4H mode. After a while of this (20 minutes?) of riding the brakes to control the descent we had a distinct burning smell. I got out of the car and it was coming from the...

    Stuck Button

    One of the buttons for seat cooling got something sticky on it. Over time that has hardened so I can't press the button. I partially removed the HVAC control panel and as I was doing that I (unintentionally) flexed it which was enough that it made a pop sound and worked again, but now it has...

    Caliper Bolts

    Hi, ordering the parts and preparing to replace my front pads and rotors. Looking at the workshop manual, the instructions for replacing the rotors state to reinstall the brake caliper anchor plate with "two new bolts". That would be W714743. Any ideas why new bolts are needed? Thanks!

    Restoring Leather

    The picture shows the condition of my leather seats. I have tried two different leather cleaners on it along with a special leather cleaning cloth that has a texture to it. I can't make any progress. Is this dirt or damage? Any hints or tips for restoring it? Thanks!

    Cold Start Rattle

    I have a rattle on cold starts that seems to be getting worse. Here is a video: HeVauv0zrfU It lasts for a while so not Cam Phasers. It doesn't seems to be like the wastegate rattle. It kind of pulses but I don't see anything moving or loose underneath from my quick inspection. Any ideas...

    Groaning When Turning Right

    I hear a groaning sound when turning sharply right and traveling forwards more than two or three MPH at the same time. Sharply means turning the wheel about one and a quarter turns to full lock. It doesn’t happen when stationary or reversing. It doesn’t happen when turning left. It does it in...

    Cupholder Silver Trim

    On my car the silver coating on the trim around the cup holders in the console is coming off leaving sharp edges. I've found part FL1Z-78045A76-AA which appears to be the entire console top, although I cannot find any pictures of this part to confirm. It looks like up to 2014 the silver trim...

    Accessing Rear Audio/Climate Controls

    How do I get access to these parts to remove/replace/disconnect them? I have tried pulling vertically on the rear cupholders but it won't budge. Do I need to unscrew the console lid and then somehow remove the console liner? 2016 Limited. Thanks!

    Bounce - Normal or Too Much?

    Just bought a 2016 Limited and the ride seems pretty bouncy to me. Hitting a pothole on the freeway throws the vehicle around. OK, it's a truck so the ride will not be as refined, but how can I tell if what I am experiencing is normal or abnormal? Don't want to just start throwing money at...

    SYNC 3 / APIM / GPS

    It appears to be having chronic problems. After doing a two-finger reboot it will work for a couple of minutes then get really sluggish and sometimes even freeze. It was at SYNC 3 version 2.2 build 17011. I tried updating it via USB but after 40 minutes I gave up and turned the engine off. The...

    Rear Climate Controls Not Working

    I can get the rear AC and heat to work through Sync 3 - no problems there but the rear climate controls don't do anything. The lock out light is not turned on. Power appears to be to the controls because the knobs are lit. Rear seat heaters can be turned on and off from the controls. It seems...
