Sorry, I missed your comment. As I was towing the trailer on the highway (trailer is three years old), a message appeared on the Driver Information screen telling me that the trailer module had failed and that I should take it to the dealer. You lose turn signals and brake light functions.
The...
I use Krown on all my vehicles. My 2008 Ranger was completely rust free when I sold it in Jan 25 after all those Ontario winters (lots of winter salt). If you touched the frame while doing oil changes, you got it everywhere, but it kept the body and frame literally as new which is certainly...
My trailer module failed (24 Lariat hybrid) and I've been waiting for this update as 22, 23, and 24 model years did not have a fix available for months. It affects the trailer lights when attached to the truck. My Ford dealer pretended not to know anything about the problem and offered to...
My neigbor had a full size RAM that got hit on the right rear. The box looked a little crooked and the bumper was obviously bent. Turned out the frame had collapsed and while it could be repaired with new sections welded in (the truck was two years old), the truck was written off...
I hope it applies to earlier (22, 23, and 24) model years. When my module failed a few weeks ago, my Ford dealer didn't know anything about it (I guess they can't read the recall notice) and was only prepared to charge me a diagnostic fee. I declined - paying for something that Ford is...
There was a problem with the welds inside the door that connect to the tension latch - as in, the welds break. I don't think there was any kind of a recall.
Perhaps the door swung open in a large gust of wind?
I wish the simulator could come up with a fix for the trailer module that has failed on my 24 Maverick. Still waiting on that, Ford. Great that the 25 and 26 models can be fixed, now, how about the rest of us?
I wouldn't put the smart car down. I owned a 2005 diesel cabrio and drove it Toronto to Florida twice. It was carefully designed and had standard stability control features built in that far exceed anything a Maverick has to offer, even 16 years later. The other safety systems were also...
Not to put dealer service departments down (well, maybe a little) it may be time to find a real alignment shop to take a look. Hopefully this is an option for you. Alignment shops typically deal with these issues and instead of doing a quick flat rate adjustment, can really find the issue...
I had that Ranger XLT with the same colors on the outside. It had the bucket seats and console and the 2.9 automatic until 2019 when I bought a F150 Lariat. It was a great truck with only a little rear fender rust. The only exterior change I made was to put an Explorer grill on it. I also...
My Ford dealer would probably charge me a diagnostic fee to figure out what it is. They don't read the manuals either and anything they have never personally seen has never happened before.
When our trucks break down, Ford seems to feel free to torture owners. I would love to have my trailer towing module fixed so I can legally tow my trailer again.
My 2024 has the failure and like the tens of thousands of pre-25 and 26 trucks, we have to wait until Ford figures out how to fix them. My dealer was willing to charge me for a diagnostic and pretended not to have ever heard of the problem so I decided simply to help publicize the issue on as...
No generally we don't. Look south if you want to see high import taxes on vehicles. The Canadian dollar fluctuates and vehicles sold in Canada sometimes have different specifications and standard features which affects the price. We have a lot more heated steering wheels for example.
The...
Lucky you have a 25 or newer. The hundreds of thousands of us with earlier trucks either have to put up with the safety issue until Ford comes up with a fix. Called the dealer - they would have to charge for a diagnositic fee (for a known problem) and report what they found.
So, I WAS going to...
My 2024 just flashed the module failure warning as I was driving today. The trailer running lights all works, just no turn signals or brake lights.
Will be calling first thing Monday morning as I actually use the small trailer frequently. Should have kept my bulletproof 2008 Ranger. I am at...
