My teenage daughter always tells me how obnoxious my BS is because of all of its Bronco badging and little horses all over the place. I may have to order these caps - these things will probably send her over the edge.
Maybe they should make all cars make this noise - it can be a safety feature that warns pedestrians that a car is backing up. ;)
Mine has done it since new - but only seems to do it the first time I backup on a drive. Once the brakes warm up, it quiets down. Not that big a deal for me.
What is...
It begs the question: How the hell did you keep that Pinto so nice for so long? Not many of those left. Also - when does the Bronco get it's own porthole? Nice work.
But the sliders need the skids. I only commented because there were a few other commenters that were talking about going in halves on a package - one taking the sliders and one taking the skids. I was just reminding them of what you guys had described earlier.
Just to add to this thread. My auto stop/start worked fine for most of the first year I had the car ( Jan 2022 to now - pretty much this year) - and it stopped when the weather got cold this fall (November-ish). I assumed it was the discussed battery issue. I even turned off the climate control...
I always listen to Iheartradio podcasts using bluetooth/android. On startup, my car always defaults to turning the radio on - even when I shut down the audio system before last leaving the car. Most of the time, I will be out of the driveway and halfway down the street when the radio comes on -...
The back seat reminder does not sense things in the back seat. It only goes off if you have opened the rear doors when you first get in the car.
The wipers actually have a neat trick - you can move them around by hand when the car is not running. You can scoot them into the middle of the...
I can move the windshield wipers anywhere on the windshield by hand when the car is not running. Sort of weird - never had a car that would let me do that. A neat feature, considering the wipers hide when not in use. So it is not too bad in snow - I think traditional hidden wipers are harder to...
Mine does this all the time - drives me nuts. I rarely even listen to the radio, but I do listen to podcasts with Iheartradio - but I usually shut this off before exiting the car. I will start up car - drive down the street, and suddenly, my radio will come on out of nowhere.
My auto stop/start quit working when our temperatures dropped this fall. It hasn't worked since. The auto stop/start worked all last winter, spring and summer for me. I have tried turning off the climate controls completely, but it still does not function. I have a long commute (about 75 miles...
Mine has honked the rear brakes since new - still does it at 10,000 miles. No noise from front brakes, but my front brakes are the dirtiest brakes I have ever owned - the front wheels are covered with brake dust within a couple of weeks of cleaning them. And I don't drive it very hard. When I...
Just a speculation - the Sync system is booting up during this time and they created the animation to give you something to watch while this is happening. The computer is busy with the bootup and Ford picked an overly complex animation that runs out of resources while the computer is busy doing...
I average around 31 - I have a 70 mile round trip commute - about 1/3 of time is in downtown city traffic and 2/3 is highway. I run about 68mph cruise control on highway. I run Eco all the time - unless going up a few steep hills on my way home, when I switch to normal mode as I feel Eco holds...
