Wet weather and cold absolutely makes it worse. I am not an expert, but it really does sound like most of my issues are electronic/computer related. The technicians at the dealership can’t really do much unless Ford releases a software update. So unless it becomes an every day issue or a part...

I know the red light shudder well too. The 5 second variety is tolerable. The semi violent ones that make me throw it in park because I am afraid it’s going to lurch into traffic… not a fan. I can sometimes replicate it. Start the truck in my driveway, sit parked for a few minutes, once it...

That is awesome they ended up not charging you anything! Thats the kind of service we should get so kudos to them. When was your truck built? Mine was built Dec 17, 2022 so Ford says I have no open recalls or TSB. If they find something wrong they will fix it but might still charge me the...

Please let me know how it goes after you pick up your truck. I am really curious how your experience plays out. If you don't mind me asking, how much was the diagnostic fee? I feel like if the dealer found something worth resetting then they should reset that diagnostic fee to $0. I was going...

I have had the abrupt, clunky grab too. I feel like the general “grabbiness” of my brakes has gotten worse in general though. Even the normal, not very smooth transition from regen to disc brake is worse than normal. I think. I might be going crazy.

Yeah the shuddering and idle surging is low priority for me. It doesn’t happen enough to warrant getting too scared about it just yet, but it is a concern that instead of the truck needing to break in it’s going to get worse. Also, these issue happen most in the cold so with spring coming I am...

Hi Ford (Milo), You already have my info via PM. You stated: “Thanks for the continued transparency regarding your situation. Moving forward, the service manager at your dealership will be the best point of contact for further information. I will update your case notes to reflect that you've...

Living with these issues wouldn't be a big deal if they were just quirks of the truck. I appreciate your insights. Most of the little quirks seem like they are not a big deal. I guess my biggest issues are both not know what’s normal and acceptable and what is an issue that should be looked...

The Ford customer service rep said that depending on the state the dealer might charge a diagnostic fee for any visit that is not directly related to an open recall or TSB. If they find something that needs to be repaired, then I could request the service manager waive the fee. If a repair is...

It seems like the TSB works some of the time, doesn't do much other times. My truck was built AFTER the TSB so it is supposed to have the updated software. So I guess my truck would fall in line with the "didn't work" category. I hope whatever is affecting these trucks is figure out sooner than...

This is a rant more than anything because I need to vent, but any advice or experience with trying to get these issues fixed are welcome. My truck is a recent 2023 hybrid build, so past recalls and TSB's do not apply according to Ford. Having said that, buyer beware. Just because some of these...

One of those big shudders occurred on a day with temps around 50F and the truck had been running for at least 30 minutes. Not to mention that two of the intense “rumble strip” shudder experiences happened while making a lefthand turn. It’s not a reassuring feeling having your truck seem like...

My 2023 hybrid was built mid December 2022. I picked it up Jan 31, 2023. I have had the exact same experience. I have almost 1500 miles on it now and have had a bunch of minor shudders, a couple major ones, and the lunging/lurching feeling when stopped on my first few stop signs in the morning...

I will have to give this a try tonight. Thanks for the update!

I do not have the electric rear window, but this sounds like the same issue I have with my manual window. Just picked mine up last night and visibility was not great. It’s really only noticeable when driving at night and a car with lights on is behind me. It looks like it’s really really dirty...
