6 Recalls and counting

[icegradner]

I thought the EB's had a few recalls? I remember something about airbags, changing out the sticker on that inside of the engine compartment (did that at home - sticker was mailed) and now the Hyperflash recall with the signals...probably requiring blinker fluid. (KIDDING!!)

So far the blinker software update is the only recall I have received for my truck. It was delivered May of 23.

Most of the recalls for the EB were early 22s made in the fall of 2021 through spring of 2022, with improperly installed back seat seatbelts, punctured gas tanks (during spray in liner install), airbags, 4k tow package trailer lighting issues.

This is a strong argument against Chevy ownership...

It certainly influenced me about not purchasing a replacement Colorado! Truth be told, the fire and subsequent explosion was traced to the battery, so I suppose it could have happened with any vehicle. As you can imagine, the recall of the hybrids due to engine failure and resulting fire has me probably more worried than most.

Some hybrids had the same problem with punctured gas tanks.

I understand they are offering some incredible deals on the Jeep Gladiator right now.

This is why I never buy first year of something. One recall so far on my 23 ecoboost. (Turn Signal software update). I bought new 2010 ram,and 2010 caravan.14 years and no recalls on either.

Same for me on my 2023 Lariat EB

I did the airbag recall, got the Yeti drink holder. Aint no big thang. Glad there's oversight and fixes provided.

If you want a vehicle with problems, that's the right way to go, buy a Jeep. My client got a 2022 Wrangler, motor died with less than 5000 miles on it, and had to wait over a year for a new one.

is it really a “Jeep wave,” or are they just flagging down a tow truck? 🥸

Same here in my 23 Lariat EB and I really did not need that software tailight update...it messed up my system for a day until if resolved itself. I think it is best to avoid Ford repairs unless it is really required since you don't really know the skill of the workers attempting some of these repairs.

I had Holman Ford Mobile Service out to my house and they did the Turn Signal reprogram in 20 minutes. No issues after they completed the service. Of course I haven’t used Forscan to reprogram anything and also have stock lights all around. All working without issues.

Ford came to my hose and did the update too. I had issues once I started driving the truck. I did a few master resets and after a short trip and a few shut offs everything started working correctly and haven't had any issues since. I think my truck did an other the air wireless update after they did the software update and that probably resolved all my issues.

Wow. The latest Sync3 update I did with the USB drive also the latest update for my Navigation system was with USB too. Not a fan of the wireless updates unless you have a solid WiFi connection. Glad all your issues got corrected.
