    Platinum

    Just thinking about how the control system provides braking to individual wheels. I should not have used the term locking. Limited slip might confuse the system. I have no definitive information about this. Might have no effect. Again, just something to think about.

    Platinum

    The stability control system is based on a non-locking differential. Just something to think about. Also, different gearing requires a change to programming for the speedometer.

    Platinum

    The 2020 and 2021 Platinums are 365 HP. The 2022 models have the same 400 HP as the ST. Main difference is the Platinum still has the taller axle gearing, 3.31 vs the 3.58 on the ST.

    Greetings from Kansas City

    Welcome. I am also in the greater KC area. Your problem with AT&T explains why I also had trouble registering here. Evidently I had not written down my password correctly so could not log in. Repeated requests for password reset and other help requests returned nothing. I finally registered...

    Consumer Report on Explorers

    Remember when CR got caught giving an automatic recommended best buy to all Toyotas without doing any testing or research. They just assumed the cars were good. The President of CR had to make a public apology. They lost all respect from me.

    Rear end damage

    So I see we are getting quite a few failures because of our change to a three bolt subframe. Yes, the government will probably make us issue a recall. But a recall has to include a fix with it. The only fix is to replace them with the proper 4 bolt subframe. We can’t do that. It’s way too...

    New Member and ST Order/B&O

    When ordering a new Ford, only go by the Dealer Order Guide. These are always available on that other Blue forum and take precedence over advertising and online order guides. The 2020 ST included everything in the Limited 300A, which included the 12 speaker B&O. The 2021 and 2022 ST include...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    I think it is pretty telling that the police units with the 3.0 engine are not included since they still have the 4 bolt, just like the Aviators.

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    By including all years they never have to admit the problem has anything to do with the change from 2 bolt.

    Random foam found.

    Ford uses those various places to keep wires away from metal edges

    Rear end damage

    All I can see a software change doing is to limit all acceleration to be a soft start. You would still have 400 hp peak but it would take longer to get there.

    Rear end damage

    I think only applies if it breaks. 2020 Ford Explorer suspension TSB (Bulletin SSM 50471) Bulletin Date: Feb. 7, 2022 Component: Suspension. Bulletin Summary: Some 2020-2022 explorer vehicles may exhibit a rear...

    Rear end damage

    Also note the bulletin only talks about what happens with a broken bolt when the vehicle is parked. Nothing about the real problem of the bolt breaking while driving which of course is the only time the vehicle is accelerating.

    Rear end damage

    Because to do otherwise would be admitting the problem is caused by the change to the three bolt design. I doubt Ford will ever do that.

    Rear end damage

    Looks to be the wimpiest "fix" they could have possibly done. The people who approved removing the bolt should be fired. Same with this "fix".

    Rear end damage

    The recall could be as small as just inspect the bolt.

    Intelligent Access Question

    Disabling that would still require some way to activate the engine start button.

    2021 Vs 2022

    I finally got around to checking the drive display some more. It does always show all four wheels getting power when accelerating regardless of the surface, wet or dry. It also shows power to all four after reaching a constant speed. However, give it a few more seconds and it changes to just...
