    Cracked Front Camera Lens

    Well I replaced the front camera in my garage yesterday and was expecting a blue screen or error message after completion, but no, it worked fine just like new. The Ford service advisor told me I would have to come in and have it initialized after installing a new replacement. Did I get lucky...

    Cracked Front Camera Lens

    The front bumper assembly has to be removed to the point it pivots down to access the camera. I watched a number of videos to remove the bumper assembly and plan on doing this in my garage. I found OEM cameras online for less than $100. Thanks for the reply Chamorro85.

    Congratulations on your new ST, the picture is beautiful. I still love mine after 4 years, paid off last month. Looking for the second set of tires after 39K miles.

    Pirelli tires

    I'm very happy with the Pirelli tires that came with my 2020 ST. They have 39K on them with no problems except one has a very slow leak, about 3 pounds of pressure a week. I'm beginning to shop for new Pirelli tires that are on special at my Ford dealer till the end of March with a $100 rebate...

    Cracked Front Camera Lens

    This just happened to my ST, I'm assuming the camera lens was hit by a small rock while driving the highway. Did you get your camera repaired yet? If so, what was the cost?

    Rear camera recall.

    I returned to the Ford dealership for the completion of the rear camera recall, software update, and everything checked out fine. Never had a blue screen problem and I hope it stays that way.

    Rear camera recall.

    I'm not getting the blue screen either, but the service advisor said errors were preventing the new software from loading with the new rear camera that is still working ok anyway. I never had a blue screen problem ever.

    Rear camera recall.

    Took my 2020 ST in for the 36K maintenance and Recall issues. The door switches sharp chrome tip replacement, 22N17 Recall, was not a problem, but the Rear camera Recall 23S23 was not completed due to software upgrade not completed because of errors. Service advisor stated they are waiting for...

    This thread helped me, now my wife is very happy the rattle is gone. I did not have to jack up my Explorer to get to the repair. Removing the old worthless plastic nuts and replacing them with stainless steel nuts and washers I bought at The Home Depot. Now I have to find the wind noise from...

    ST: 6 Faults at same time - OUCH!

    The above errors recently happened to me. The AWD module was the fix.

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    ChasBG, I am very impressed with your expertise in repairing this annoying faulty door locking issue. You are most likely correct that an assembly person failed to snap the connector completely closed.

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    Sorry to hear about your unresolved issues. Maybe your son could look into the Ford technical database for more information. Good luck with this.

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    I had this problem, among other anomalies until Ford finally replaced the 12 volt battery. I installed a hardwired 2amp NOCO battery tender. Most of my trips are short drives and it's back in the garage, lift the hood and plug in the battery tender. I noticed it take less time to fully charge...

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    I ordered a battery tender to hook up to the battery when I'm parked in the garage to keep the battery strong. After reading about so many problems with a weak battery, these Explorers just can't keep the battery voltage high enough especially if you just make short trips.

    The "Space GhoST" has lost its powers....

    After living with weak battery problems for a year and reading about others experiencing weak or bad batteries, I have decided to find a battery tender to keep my new battery strong. My original battery almost lasted 3 years, but showed weak battery anomalies for about a year before Ford...

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    TakeMyMoneyST, you are correct about the battery under the hood. I had multiple electrical issues that were corrected when the Ford Dealership replaced my battery. I hope the new battery lasts longer than 2 years. It was covered under warranty. I'm about to turn over to 27,000 miles after 3...

    Problem with locking and unlocking when touching door handle.

    What battery did you replace? The key fob battery?
