Welcome to the forum!

I think there needs to be a clarification here. Because of how muffled our exhaust is, there will be a noticeable louder buzz when decelerating at certain speeds, or especially when the vehicle does a semi cold start.

I had a 2020 A-Build, name any problem these vehicles commonly have that thing had it. But I’m here still aren’t I? These things got me hooked, now have a 2022 with its fair share of problems and no regrets still. I think it’s just something that’s just become all too common. Heck, look at Jeep...

Agreed, so bothering. Can’t remember the last time I’ve personally even used the windshield wiper fluid, it goes everywhere and my second job is cleaning these vehicles :-). First world problems I guess.

Sound wise assume.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new buy. I’d start with an ZFG tune and intercooler. Will get you off to a great start. If you want to go further, check out my modding guide, which I’ve included below. https://www.explorerst.org/threads/explorer-st-modding-101-guide.7324/

Yep definitely not a common color. I like it.

On the other side of the spectrum, I’m mad because the snow falls off and makes my car dirty after I cleaned it ;-)

I don’t think so. I love these cars, but they’re not dangerously fast stock.

How do the Lionhearts do in the rain? I snow performance isn’t good, but that’s what a winter setup is for.

I liked the Misanos, but they weigh a lot. I’d suggest looking at KRNC forged wheels, they have a lot of cool designs and for a 22x10.5 wheel are around the $1800 range. The Michelins are amazing tires, and worth every penny. Expensive is the only downside, but they are pretty pricey. Stay away...

There is a recall on this. Just a software glitch that’s needs a software update. Common problem.

To me Racechip is an option, but not worth possibly voiding warranty for.

Even if EPA doesn’t apply to you, all the other negatives make catless a no go.

Wow great detailed, and very informative.

Interesting, used to be 42,000 points, they must have changed that.

I did hate how often the clips broke, and it definetely was annoying and part of a long list of problems I had with my A-Build 2020. However, I love these vehicles still.

I believe the felt panel is just for sound insulation.

I think emissions is the main reason, but Ford also may see locking the PCM have other good effects too (for them at least). They could possibly corner the aftermarket modification corner if no one can crack it and ease of warranty investigations (probably a far reach though).

They should come automatically when you enter the car into your FordPass account. I know a lot of people have had problems though, and they had to call the FordPass costumer service.
