    Has Anyone Received a 2022 Model Yet?

    Yeah, I don't see any additional piano black in the review. Thanks for posting! You can see the temp display change and the lack of lighting in the cupholders in that video.

    Has Anyone Received a 2022 Model Yet?

    Wow, removing the cupholder lighting is really dumb. That's one of the more instantly visible ambient lighting areas in the front. Removing the temp display is pretty lame too. I wonder if both those were done due to the chip/parts shortage issues. Maybe they will come back at some point...

    Looks great! Can you confirm if there are additional areas of gloss black trim inside the 2022 ST? If so, photos? Our 2021 has has gloss black on the center stack and doors.

    Can you show some pics of the additional piano black pieces? Interested to see that. Thanks!

    What Have You Done To Your Explorer ST Today

    How hard are was the install? Any instructions on doing this swap? I tried the sticker route, didn’t like the look, couldn’t quite get all the bubbles out. And where did you get your replacement ovals? Thanks!

    New ST, brake pedal noise?

    Yep! Thats the sound! To me the most annoying part is the feel of the click through the pedal and into my foot every time I brake. If you are successful in getting the problem fixed with a new booster, please provide your dealership name and perhaps a work order # with the group. Hopefully we...

    Loose rear window switches?

    Anyone else’s rear window switches seem really loose? Both of ours have a lot of movement when you touch them and rattle around easily. The drivers switches have zero movement/rattle, the front passenger only has a small amount. It’s so easy to wiggle the switches in back window I’m wondering...

    Interior creaks and rattles

    I have this too! We can be just be sitting still or driving on smooth pavement and I will here the “clicking” sound coming from I think the middle row. Really annoying! That is actually the only noise we have in the car…well besides the squealing brakes, the clunking brake pedal, and the...

    PowerStop Brake Pads?

    I actually did take the car to my independent mechanic and he took out the pads and applied lube in all the proper locations. He mentioned there was almost no factory lubrication and what was there was dried out and “cakey”. The car was a little quieter for a few weeks after doing that, but it’s...

    PowerStop Brake Pads?

    Interesting idea! I'll look into it. The car only has 4000 miles on it.

    PowerStop Brake Pads?

    We just have the Street Pack according to the window sticker. Our issue isn’t howling, they are dead silent all the time except when gently applying and coming to a stop slowly (like in stop and go traffic)…then they squeal like a banshee!

    PowerStop Brake Pads?

    I called PowerStop today and turns out none of them are available for the Explorer yet. They won't start producing them until most likely sometime mid next year. He said generally pads for new vehicles aren't produced for 2-3 years. So, does anyone have any other manufacturer to suggest for...

    Glovebox and Center armrest lights?

    Thank you for sharing! Ours is also a 3/21 build date. So more than likely we also don't have the harness. Oh well! I might try looking just to be sure. I'll report back if I find I do have the harness.

    Glovebox and Center armrest lights?

    I read that the 2020 had lights in the globebox and center armrest. Any way to add those to a 2021? I can see the blank plastic covers that are in place of where the lights would be...I wonder if the wiring is still there? Anyone checked or able to install them?

    SYNC Build 21194 Is Released by Ford

    Weird, I don't see 21194 yet. Tried the OTA update and it says my 21098 is the latest. Tried putting in VIN on Ford's website and it says "Your SYNC system will be updated to SYNC3 v3.4.21098". We have a 2021. Wonder why we aren't seeing the newer version yet?

    New ST, brake pedal noise?

    Mine is an even louder click that what I can hear in the video...its really annoying. I got the same song and dance from the dealer, "Its Normal". I too opened a case with customer service, but it got me no where. All they did was get another appointment for me with the same dealer and they...

    Creaking center front armrest?

    Anyone else have a front center armrest that creaks like crazy? Even the slightest pressure from the driver or passenger arm and thing creaks. The plastic seems to be really cheap under the leather and it flexes. Anyone found a fix for this?
