When this generation came out in 2020, the seats and 14 speaker B&O were in a separate Technology package, along with the larger touchscreen. The sunroof was a stand-alone option on the ST. So it is nothing new. I can definitely see that the seats would not be wanted by everybody and just...

Don't ever rule out tires as a source of noise or vibration, even though they may not have many miles on them or are not that old. Over the years, have had many issues with tires in both areas. Have had balancing issues many times with different brands either from the installer not doing it...

Same here. My 2020 is red and has the machined aluminum wheels with black pockets. I like when the wheels stand out rather than blending in like black wheels do on the Explorers. I have grey wheels similar to the 2025 Explorers on my red Fusion Sport and I think it looks great. It will sound...

Doesn't the tow screen in the cluster have a temperature gauge for the transmission? If so, would be an easy check to see if the temperature is high when it starts to jerk.

The line between AWD and FWD/4X4 is pretty blurred today. Originally 4WD was the rugged offroad driving all four wheels mechanical drivetrain, the first grandaddy system. High range, low range, and 2WD. Then AWD came around, which seemed to be used when cars started driving all four wheels...

I bought one from Zeigler Ford a few years ago for my Fusion V6 Sport. They had the best price at the time, but the plans have gone up a lot in price since then. I used some FordPass reward points to help pay for it. You definitely need to shop around, and most have online calculators for...

From what I understand it is a point in production where changes are made, many times half-way through the year's production. These usually include adding or deleting options and features, changing the way options are packaged, trim changes, and price changes. I suppose it could also be minor...

You are correct. Probably not the exact build date, but can be used to tell if one vehicle is newer than the other. I wonder if Ford deleted the power adjust steering column for Job 2 since you said the one with the Sun and Sound Package does not have it. Have yet to come across an updated...

When you open the driver's door you will find the label with the VIN and codes. At the top will be a month and year, MM/YY. This would be when it was built. On the bottom of the window sticker there will also be a month, day, and year. Not sure if it will 100% match the label, but should be...

(y) Don't know why companies need to get fancy with names. Pretty much everybody knows what "massaging" means when it comes to chairs and seats. Actually, Ford has used the word multicontour for a few years. My 2020 calls them "Multicontour Seats with Active Motion", which I guess is actually...

According to the Ford Authority website, the keypad is once again a factory installed option as of 11/25/24 for Job 2 production. It is listed on the Ford website as a $455 stand-alone option. Maybe Ford had enough people complaining it was not an option, or dealers complaining about having to...

Per my response to your post in the Purchasing and Ordering forum, it looks like the multicontour (massaging) seats were standard on the ST for Job 1 up to 11/24/24, but for Job 2 after that date they are optional and part of the Sun and Sound Package. I assume the material is the same for both...

What brand batteries did you use? I replaced the battery with a cheap one in my Fusion and after a few weeks the FOB would not work. Couldn't even start the car, said FOB not present. Voltage check was okay but put a new battery in and it worked fine again. Evidently the new FOB's draw a lot...

Looks like the 2025 uses the combination of ActiveX and Miko. My Fusion Sport uses leather for the outer perimeter surfaces and the Miko inserts in the seat and back areas where your body makes contact. Looks like the new Explorers use ActiveX instead of leather in the perimeter areas. The...

Miko and ActiveX are two different materials. From what I have read, Miko is a faux suede or cloth-like material, and ActiveX is a faux leather. Both are supposed to be made from recycled materials. I have the Miko inserts in my Fusion Sport and they feel like a cloth material. They are...

Don't have a 2025 but have a 2020 with the multicontour seats. I would think they would be the same other than the material. When not using the massaging feature, they feel like any other seat. Mine are very comfortable and I never had any back problems or aches after sitting in them for many...

I find these little mysteries fun to research. Looked up the dealer order guide on another site. The latest revision they had was 06/07/24. On that guide it lists the multicontour front seats and B&O 14 speaker audio as standard equipment on the ST and the twin panel moonroof as standard and...

Same problem happens on my Dad's 2018 Fusion. Only the driver's door works. Symptom of a battery getting weak. May work fine immediately after being driven but problem will show up after sitting parked for a while.

Came across this thread a while back where someone added it to their 2023 ST. Don't know if it applies to the ST Line too. Hope it helps. Install Rear Camera Washer | Explorer ST Forum
