The floor mat, especially the rubber ones sometimes block the "under seat vents". Check that and also make sure your vent selector on the dash for Upper and Lower is on both. If it is you should get floor air as well as out of the console vents. Keep in mind the console does have a fan...

You may check back at my older posting about Service at my Local Dealership. They told me to "Never come back" on their property because I called Ford and complained about them NOT DOING WARRANTY REPAIRS on my car. By the way, I had less than 10K and it was a FUEL INJECTOR REPLACEMENT that...

OK, here is my tip for your felt flap. I used a simple piece of VELCRO and attached it to the end and another at about the half way point. Try both sides and you will find that only half or one side of velcro will interlock into the carpet. By attaching it to the carpet, you cannot push the...

Thanks, that was interesting. I have 55k on my BSBB 3 cyl and hove no engine noise or power loss, however I have used synthetic 100% oil in stead of the blend and I have stayed away from the 0-20 and gone a step up to 5-20. Just feel it lubricates better and has kept the valve chatter down...

Watch the Octane rating of your gas. 87 is the Regular most places here and that is what my manual calls for on my 2022 Big Bend. I have 50K and get a bit of rattle on idle and that is it. Make sure your oil is full, sometimes low oil will cause valve chatter as well as wrong octane. What...

Just like Robins21 I have worked on cars for around 60 years and you can get cut on a lot more than this. I don't think FORD will make a recall out of it, but it was nice of you to tell them. Those Customer Service Reps need to keep busy. Sorry, but if your wrench slips, will you call them...

Tuff Skins are now 3 years old with no problem. Check my profile next to this. Front and back. Also a Flag in each rear window.

Walmart sells AGM 179-189 for a three year warranty, installed. Mine works fine, and Ford paid for it.

The installer should have completed that as part of the installation. I would call them and ask why it was not included and complain loudly.

A mouse only needs a 1/4" square hole to enter into a space. The reason is a simple one, they have a skull that is in either three or four sections that will collapse as they find resistance, so basically the size of a pencil eraser on the top is large enough. I live in the National Forest in...

I live in the Natx4ional Forest, in New Mexico. I have had mice constantly, so I use a old farm trap that DOES WORK. A simple bucket. Fill the bucket or pail about 2/3 to 3/4 full of water. Put a block, 3"X4" of wood in the water so it is floating. Prop a 2X4 board leaning on the bucket to...

Bad news my friend. If you note on each end of the piece you show there are "anchors" that attach to the inside of the door glass channel. Are you going to use the "dry" or "wet" method for the install? If the wet install, you may insert the tint into the bottom of the window with a "putty...

What price?

Talk to an Independent body shop, they have a simple filler for it. However, I don't think I would fix it. It is a parking lot ding and that is not a big deal. Kid is OK, Mom has probably settled down by now and forgiven you for giving him the keys. lol

Looks to me like a simple enough job. Did you check for the part and price at some other places? I bought the EVAP Unit at O'Rileys for half of the cost of the local dealer. Just a thought.
