Check the air box for a rattle. The 3 rubber grommets that retain the air box are known to come out and become missing.

The wheel well liners are not fabric. They are made of plastic with an acoustic coating to help control sound.

This is not true. Your vehicle and mine will shift out of park and into any gear when the hood is open. You can not shift out of park unless you hold down the brake pedal while turning the shift knob.

What is wrong with the OEM bulbs?

Gabe Good to hear you now have a solution. I am sure many others are experiencing the same torque converter shudder, but are not aware of what is causing the symptoms. I am now due for a drain and refill and will add a new tube of Lubegard Instant Shudder Fixx with the new ULV ATF fluid.

No i No mechanical Issues with the engine. 5W-20 Motorcraft Synthetic Blend. Always changed when vehicle oil minder tells me. Original water pump. Very, very faint mist of a leak. I add 1 cup of coolant every 3-4 months. Engine runs great. Torque converter shudder issues. I drain and fill...

This is for 1.5L 21-24 vehicles only. I have 169,000 miles on the original oil pump belt. No issues. Ford does not have a recommended replacement time/miles for the oil pump belt. I doubt you will find anyone that has replaced the belt.

You probably now have hyper flash occurring when you press the brake pedal.

Check your rear brake lights.

The fuel gauge uses horizontal lines. You are not viewing the fuel gauge. You are looking at the information screen gauge. This is controlled and configured by the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel.

People Please create a habit of opening your hood at every fill up. Visually check your coolant level. I have a very, very faint mist of a coolant leak coming from the water pump. I add maybe a cup of coolant every 3-4 months. It is not worth replacing the water pump.

Just open the hood and look at the reservoir on the passenger side. This takes 10 seconds.

Check your coolant level.

We need more information. Year of vehicle. SYNC Build version. Type of device you are using. OS version number on device. Version number of Ford app.

I have to snap that plastic fittings that are visible after opening the liftgate. These are at the top of rear opening. You may want to check your vehicle.
