That's interesting, I've had my 25 HAWD since last October and I have never seen that message displayed.

Oh Canada

Well you sure got me beat but always happy to hear about a great deal. Enjoy!

Yeah, my dealer found me a loaded '25 Lariat hybrid AWD w 4K tow. They discounted it $500 for my trouble and then found me a $1500 rebate no one knew existed. Interestingly enough there are certain perks that go with a buyback, that's one of them. The other is they offer a number of Ford ESP's...

The lemon law works just fine. Ford bought my '24 Lariat hybrid back after 6 weeks in the service bay. They and multiple FSE 's could not identify the source of the battery saver mode issue. Yes it was an inconvenience but I got everything back after 8,000 miles. Sometimes it's the only solution...

Paint chips are bad? Uh oh

Very short drive Stuart, very short

My '24 Lariat hybrid did that and it drove me nuts. Dealer said there was no way to disable the feature. I have since sold it back to Ford under the buyback for a battery issue. I now have a '25 Lariat hybrid and the double honk feature does not exist.

Parasitic draw has not been the primary issue in most cases. In fact I think it's quite rare. My '24 hybrid was in the service bay for a total of three months with no such draw ever detected. Many times the problem lies with a poorly matched 12v battery in a power hungry hybrid with a hundred...

If you're concerned enough to ask the forum about this ancient subject in the first place, then maybe you already have your answer. It's also a fairly significant risk considering the reward is maybe a $10-$15 savings. On the logic meter I would say this reads at around a 2.

Any dealer who would allow a customer to drive off with a newly purchased vehicle and fails to disclose the installation of an OBD tracker is just plain disingenuous. A good customer relationship is rather important in their business and mutual trust is an essential element of that. I would be...

I know exactly what you're talking about. I installed a Gator EFX hard tri-fold on my 25 Lariat in November. The fit is supposed to be tight at the tailgate. In my case I actually placed wooden shims between the C clamp and the bed sidewall. That kept the rails from pulling down, keeping them...

Right, Anyway Shawn's explanation was very concise I'm going with that. "oleophobic," I had to look that one up. I guess you don't come across that in organic or P-chem. Anyway it turns out such coatings degrade over a period of 1-2 years. If that means anything.

Not sure how a seal gets compromised when it doesn't actually exist in the first place.

Nice guy, terminology needs work okai.

ALWAYS use the e brake and you'll never have to worry about it.

Anti glare is the most practical feature IMO.

Motorists in general should be much more aware and concerned about CO inhalation inside their vehicles as symptoms are much more subtle and there is no odor to detect it. And it's just as deadly of course.

Pretty freak event I would say considering there aren't many reports of this in my search. But nevertheless it's probably a good idea for all of us hybrid owners to just take a peek under the seat and confirm the vent tube is well attached.

Always ask for a loaner on their dime and you'll find the service much more expedient.
