Same here! But this is the first vehicle I have ever purchased that is as much computer and it is vehicle, way of the future and all I suppose. Im not quite sure why these software updates require a dealer visit, I guess thats for the benefit of the dealers? I'm not a computer guy but my Mac...

IDK I dont really pay that close attention, I just went back outside and the light were still on, I guess the headlights auto off no matter what, but what about the interior?

Im the exact opposite. In fact I would have just kept my Frontier that new motor is soooo strong 3.8L and the transmission was great too.

I charged my battery, did the reset in the owners manual, and haven't had anymore issues. Went outside last night and my lights were all on, I urned them off. I am wondering if my whole problem was leaving the lights on? I had shit them off manually and then turned them back on, I dont do that...

Thats basically my plan, im not trying to avoid buying a battery, 39 months is perfectly acceptable for a 12v battery. I'm trying to diagnose the issue apporriately; knowing that many have had these issues makes me want to make sure the battery is the problem before I swap it out. I charged...

I checked out that other thread, Im sure glad I have had 39 months of trouble free operation. I am hoping this is just a dead battery, and not the new normal. I am not looking to turn this situation into a hobby. I did buy the extended warranty a few months ago once I decided to keep it.

It wont start, it wont unlock the doors! Im less than 500 miles out of warranty for new battery from Ford. I put it on a trickle charger for a few hours and it came off battery saver mode in the app, so I tried and it did start, so I let it run till it stopped and put it on my car charger and it...

i went out this morning to check the voltage and i had to key open the drivers door and could t even manually unlock the passengers door, i had to leave for an appointment before i could figure that out.

I do occasionally do a pedal to the metal run, what can I say I am young at heart! I never found the noise to be noteworthy, I mean yea it makes a bit more noise WFO but it never stuck out to me as particularly loud. I did by pass the fake noise, so that might be some of it, IDK. I love the...

I just saw the Battery Save Mode on my 22 hybrid for the first time on the app tonight at 37000 miles I never had any issues whatsoever, original battery, I drove it about 10 miles today so it hasn't been sitting. The only issue Ive had at all was the clunky half shafts that were replaced under...

😂😂

the stop start is way different on the hybrid, for starters it doesnt even have a starter.

maybe I am a low stress driver, in ideal conditions her win the Arizona desert. Heat used to seem to be problem on cars but not any more, gone are the days of me cracking the bell housing open and running the heat up a big hill in my van to keep it from overheating.

on mine all its seems to be doing is counting 1000 miles as 10%, in the end its no big deal I think 7500 miles is about right and I know the motor has run for less than that, I am kind of a 5000 mile guy but this is a low stress ICE, I If had the turbo, and I have never had a turbo car, but if I...

i have a buddy with a 4.6 chevy van and he charges his oil every 15000 miles, that’s two 1/2 as often as the van specs. why? well he runs mobil 1! better to use the cheapest oil you can find and do it at 7500 than Mobil 1 at 15000. o convinced him to do an oil analysis and yea his oil was filthy...

The advantage of doing an oil change early on a new motor is if there is a lot of contamination in the oil from assembly. I did mine at 50% oil change life on my hybrid and I sent the oil to Blackstone labs and they analyzed it and it did not have a lot of contamination. I also separated the...

I dont know that for sure, it seems to be the case, maybe it's just my driving roughly aligns with this, I would think that the oil change counter should only be running when the ICE is also running. I am still just changing my oil at 20-5% oil life and it mostly seems to be about 7500 miles I...

I do it at 20-25% oil life. I would like to think that this is more than simply a mileage countdown, because of however many miles the ICE isnt running, but I am pretty sure it is just that. 100% is 10,000 miles I do it at around 7500, which I guesstimate is about 6000 miles of the ICE...

The guy changing your oil at the dealer, the quick lube, the shop down the street, wherever, is almost always going to be the lowest guy on the totem pole in the shop, the guy with the least experience, the new guy, they guy that cant be trusted todo any real work. There is a solid chance he...

Ok yea I see it, I m pretty low tech, mine probably looked like that at 2100 miles, I guess the intake is in front of the windshield? The engine pulls from inside the engine bay and thats why its so much cleaner.
