    Exhaust Break behind muffler

    same thing happened to my 2021 ST a couple of weeks ago. Took it to the dealer and was quoted a price of $3800 for new muffler. Eff that. I talked to the service manager and lo and behold, they could weld it after all. Sounds like a common problem. I’ve never been off-road or over crappy roads...

    2021 ST minor probles

    I have a ‘21 also. The plastic base under the driver’s seat broke. For no apparent reason. I’m sure it isn’t under warranty. Kind of cheesy. The exterior strip on the passenger side rear window came loose also. I had like 28k miles. Took it to the dealer and they said that because it bent...

    Replacement tires for the 21" Pirelli Scorpion's - YOKO'S?

    I've had my Michelin Sports for about 6 months now. I'm concerned about their wear rate. I believe that my gas mileage has suffered by about 10%. They handle the dry road well. I've had lots of cars hydroplane and had to change my underwear so I'm not going to push them in the rain. We haven't...

    Exhaust Break behind muffler

    The tailpipe on my 2021 with 46,000 miles did the same thing yesterday and I didn't run over anything or take it 4 wheeling either. I'm taking it to the dealer but it's looking like a waste of time, listening to others' experiences. I contacted Ford on Facebook or whatever it's called and will...

    3.0L Engineering Analysis by the Feds

    I saw an article by Associated Press dated 10/2 about the Ford 3.0L turbo engine in 2021 and 2022 model years regarding catastrophic failure due to faulty valves. It says that it's usually early on. I seem to remember people on this forum mentioning something about that. Something to keep an...

    High Mileage Explorer STs check in!

    41,000+ on 2021. Window trim popped loose between the passenger side front and rear doors at about 25,000. Dealer wouldn't cover it. I called Ford, they declined also. Because the piece was "damaged". It was damaged because it popped loose, I guess I was driving and resistance ofcar passing...

    Bad battery?

    I'm not a mechanic but I've found that when I drive somewhere to get the battery tested, it puts just enough charge on it to give a satisfactory reading. I don't know if that's what's happening but just a thought. I agree with Cruising68. Just get a new one. And it looks like a real P.I.T.A. to...

    Replacement tires for the 21" Pirelli Scorpion's - YOKO'S?

    Had the Sports for about 1200 miles so far, they ride really well. They're brand new so take that with a grain of salt. If I remember right, the stock Pirellis rode well when new also. I'm driving 600 miles in to get my kid from college for a break in about a week. No on a side note, if I my...

    Transmission

    I would only use motorcraft tyranny fluid, just to play it safe. I was using Motorcraft full synthetic previously. I got a good price on Mobil 1 at Costco the most recent time

    Locking lugnuts?

    Thanks. Looks like the Advanced $90 wheel locks will inconvenience a thief the most

    Locking lugnuts?

    Does anyone have any preferences about locking lug nuts? Are they necessary? Do they work? Are they worth it?

    New SYNC Update 23188

    I had to do at least 1 soft reset a day pre-update. Haven't needed to since. In fact, I couldn't do a master reset, it would just freeze after I pushed "continue". I'm wondering if and/or why it would be suggested to perform a master reset after completing the 23188 reset?
