    Heater takes a very long time to start warming

    If you have heated/cooled seats then there is forced air for both. You can hear the fan come on for both heat and cool. My previoius 2 vehicles were the same way, a 2010 and 2013 MKZ. The fans were really loud on the previous generations. I found this discussion...

    Low oil level @ 3,000 miles

    It is a really cool looking, substantial dipstick tbh! LOL Oh and it is also hard to reach back there.

    Low oil level @ 3,000 miles

    Yes on all of your above observations! I also had trouble removing the dipstick for the first time, it was really stuck in there. Last week I just got my oil changed for the first time at 3800 miles.

    ST slams on the breaks when I try to reverse sometimes

    This happened when I first got the vehicle but now after 3 months I've had no such incidents. I know that it will stop you within 1 foot of an object and won't brake gently at all.

    Missing Parts

    That is where the towing eye EM2Z-17A954-A goes. The other side you should have the fuel filling funnel.

    What did you learn that's not in the Users Manual?

    If you hit refresh on the app it updates your tire pressure LOL! Also using it to lock or unlock or start also updates all the vehicle information.

    Pirelli Scorpion Zero Tires

    I don't know how it can be run-flat if it went down to 24 psi then down to zero when it was in my trunk for couple days using the mini spare tire. Luckily according to the Pirelli warranty PNCS and run-flat tires have road hazard coverage for a year because I didn't purchase additional...

    Pirelli Scorpion Zero Tires

    Mine was not in the fixable area of the tire. On the outer edge of the shoulder almost in the sidewall. I think the Explorers with Michelin tires have self-sealing run-flat tires. These Pirelli's are not. https://www.wikihow.com/Identify-Run-Flat-Tires

    Pirelli Scorpion Zero Tires

    They are not run-flat tires. It was flat that's why I needed a new tire.

    Pirelli Scorpion Zero Tires

    At only 3100 miles, I got a drywall screw in the inner shoulder of the tire which of course can never be repaired. NTB ordered a new one for me for 313.99 and it was received in 4 days. When they unpacked the tire and saw the foam insulation inside, they told me these tires can never be...

    Liftgate keeps closing

    Maybe it's because the deflector is missing??? Has anyone noticed a difference when it's installed? I'm still waiting for mine and mine is way to sensitive both opening and closing. I can quickly walk around the back and the liftgate opens and I haven't kicked under the bumper. A couple times...

    Transmission troubles

    This does happened sometimes when I'm in Sport Mode. Is that in Sport Mode?

    Transmission troubles

    I've noticed this as well when you're light on the throttle shifting to 2nd almost stalls. Either I got used to it or it got better now that I have 3100 miles.

    What would you have purchased if there were no Explorer ST?

    I was seriously considering a 2019 Nautilus, 2019 Edge ST or CPO Continental. I'm happy with my choice!

    Has anyone downloaded any system updates over wifi yet?

    I had this too last week and all I noticed was that the app looked slightly different than before.

    Dripping in Driveway at Cold Start

    So I've had my ST for almost 3 months and 2500 miles and have noticed liquid dripping under the driver's side middle of the vehicle after cold starts. I've kept an eye on this at every cold start making sure it's not coolant or other fluid. It seems to be a lot of condensation in the exhaust...

    Capless fuel tank issues?

    That's what she said! LOL But seriously my issues with this vary from pump to pump and certain gas stations. I had the same issue with my 2013 MKZ at different pumps. It seems it's a pressure issue and someone at the station recently said he thinks it happens more when the pump is low on gas.

    hvac/defroster vent issue

    Has anyone noticed the vent on the passenger side rear door opening sort of where the elbow of the 2nd row passenger would be? When I used remote start and opened that rear passenger side door it was blowing warm air out of 2 vents there. After 2 months of ownership I wasn't aware of these...
