Yesterday morning on my way home from work my '24 XLT AWD changed drive modes 4 or 5 times. A couple of times I didn't really feel the change but when it changed to Sport mode obviously the tach shot up and it accelerated quicker. I was definitely concerned as my truck only has 3k miles and the thought of taking it in perturbed me. Right before I got home I realized what was causing it and I literally busted out laughing. My Ridge wallet was in my right front pocket and when I was adjusted a certain way in the seat my wallet was pushing the Mode button. What an idiot.

If it makes you feel better I have done the same thing. I have a round plastic coin holder and depending what pants I am wearing it will hit the mode button just right and I don't notice till I feel the truck driving differently. You are not alone LOL
