    Did anyone else get the recall letter?

    The "rear axle bolt" is not a "drive line bolt." The recall notice is for a reflash of the electronic e-brake, so that if the rear axle bolt shears and you put it into park the vehicle will not roll away. You had reported on another thread of hard transmission downshifting which led to a...

    How does everyone wash and dry the roof?

    That's what I use to wash an dry the roof ... The roof rack was worth every penny, would never get an SUV without one just for that reason alone.

    Did anyone else get the recall letter?

    What do you mean "Got mine too late." The brake flash recall wasn't related to your transmission issue.

    2022 ST arrived, do I really want it?

    Depends on whether or not you want a full sized performance SUV (many others are quite a bit smaller) without spending $20-$30k more. You can nit pick the little stuff or put down hard wads of cash for better trim, less aggressive styling and a tighter interior. I'll save you the time by...

    ST vs. The Competition

    Thanks for the info! From my 3 year old KIA Stinger GT to my 22 ST, my insurance dropped $20/month.:) I realize no matter who you go to, every dealer's Service Dept will ask if you bought your car there. But if you say no, they'll still service it anyways! I can't believe BMW (or any other...

    QUESTION: Who is using/has used a 3 bolt at the drag strip?

    Heat and humidity kill DA. Maybe you meant to say your track elevation was low? Here is a great link for track DA's: https://airdensityonline.com/us-track-list/

    QUESTION: Who is using/has used a 3 bolt at the drag strip?

    When a 93 tune adds 100+hp, that is significant. Adding springs/sway bar shows the overall level of upgrades. Pop music is like any other category of music, there's some good stuff and some not so great stuff.

    QUESTION: Who is using/has used a 3 bolt at the drag strip?

    I'd say a 93 tune/whipple/springs/sway bar definitely leans towards heavily modded. So with all your mods and running 12's, your 3 bolt held up. Good to know! Me neither. Racing in the heat always leaves you wondering "What would I have run in better DA?"

    WARNING recall 22S27 is more than what they are telling us

    Exactly what rpm is the power brake launch with the tune? Asking for my 3 bolt.

    ST vs. The Competition

    Seriously! I'm getting the same 20 mpg combined my KIA Stinger GT got, and the ST weighs 700 lbs more and makes another 45 hp. The Audi does not have the $7k price savings either! Add another $66,790 to the ST's price, and the BMW X5 M Competition is yours.;)

    Poll: How many have experienced a "rear axle bolt fracture" (POLL CLOSED 6-4-22)

    What should I complain to them about? Our poll which shows a .7% failure rate, or their own data which shows a .09% failure rate?:cool: Unlike some of our First Responder counterparts (LEO's) most Firefighters are born happy!;)

    Recall on the 1 bolt rear axle

    Essentially, people are getting all worked up over nothing.

    WARNING recall 22S27 is more than what they are telling us

    Exactly my thought. But but he's already tuning his ST so he's not concerned about warranties.

    21 ST in the CLE

    Ford Engineer Marty Smets calls it a "vehicle."

    QUESTION: Who is using/has used a 3 bolt at the drag strip?

    There's got to be a few hundred thousand 3 bolter's out there, hard to believe at least no stock one's have made a few laps down the quarter.
