    Phone Call Echo

    Yes I have had this problem and have also heard myself echo sometimes. Hanging up and redialing usually resolved this. I also experience problems if I am already on a call and get in the car and connect the phone there is a lag or have to deselect privacy button on the screen to hear the call.

    What did your Ford Explorer ST replace?

    On the exterior everything is lined up but the dashboard has a few big gaps in the cheap plastic trim.

    Anyone get frustrated with people thinking you are a cop?

    One of the PD's in Montgomery County, MD has a black ST unmarked with lights in a bar behind the windshield inside and blacked out windows. Possibly the chief of police!

    Getting irritated with some of the driver assist functions

    My reverse brake assist went off 3 times today and scared the crap out of me. To be fair, I was backing up really fast in the rain and there were obstacles nearby. It is too damn sensitive but like you said, I was relieved that I didn't actually hit something!

    In my 2013 MKZ the ambient lighting in door turned red when opening door while engine running. When engine off all lighting turned white when door opened. 2012 Focus also turned red. 2010 MKZ did not change to red but did change to white.

    Adaptive Headlamps

    My 2010 MKZ and 2013 MKZ both had adaptive headlights but honestly can't say that I really miss having them. They were kinda gimmicky and didn't really always aim very accurately on those earlier models. I think the new LED headlamps have a better adaptive feature.

    Make sure you have intelligence cruise control turned on in the vehicle settings on the center touchscreen menus. I believe there are 3 cruise control settings: Regular, Adaptive and Intelligent.

    All push button (Lincoln) and rotary shifter Ford transmissions do this for safety reasons since 2013.

    Name ONE ST Feature others might not know.....

    Again this was a feature I first became aware on my 2013 Lincoln MKZ. You have to be wearing your seatbelt for this auto brake release to work. The 2017 Fusion Hybrid SE I drive also has this so I think it must be standard with all electronic parking brakes.

    You're right it does fit the sunglass holder but according to the online instructions it is intended for the storage space under the smaller 8 inch center infotainment display.

    I love that door handle lock and unlock which is on the inside of the handle and have used it since I had my 2013 Lincoln MKZ!

    Name ONE ST Feature others might not know.....

    I discovered one by accident today. When the vehicle is off, if you pull the turn signal stalk toward you, there is a loud beep and the headlights and display screens all come on. They stay on until you pull the stalk again to turn them off! Interesting and I guess for when you need a lot of...

    I'm thinking about getting this: Does anyone have this or any ideas about it? It would really give a nice splash of red to the all black interior.

    Navigator Volume Control

    With my last 3 Sync system equipped vehicles, the volume knob controls the voice volume when it is speaking but there is also a menu setting under voice prompt volume or something like that.
