Of course I didn't. Ha. ? I'd had to jump start my car 3 times in 12 hours, I wasn't even thinking of the recall at the time I dropped it off. I wish I had taken a pic. I know it did not have the AGM battery prior to replacement. (Disclaimer: this tale does not mean I don't like my car - I...

So, I went in with my paperwork; the service manager had to "research" my battery history to see if it qualified under the recall (even though I have the recall notice sent by Ford). Didn't hear anything Monday or Tuesday so I went back in on Wednesday, and reminded the service manager that I...

I am headed into my dealer on Monday to see about getting a refund on my battery since the fix is now official. I tried today but the advisor there didn't have the ability to process a refund. I will update on whether or not I get my $$ back.

I had to pay for my battery replacement out of pocket on 3/31. I've kept the paperwork handy for when the answer to the recall is "replace the battery" so I can get reimbursed.

My BB is almost 14 months old to the day, 31,080 miles on it. I love my car, and have had no real issues with it. I had the two recalls - but I knew buying a new model car that recalls were possible and it was a risk I was okay taking because I was excited about the car. I'd rather there be...

While cool, if you did this in 2023: Black Bear Pass from the San Miguel County line down to Telluride has not been opened (yet) for vehicle traffic this year. Road status should be verified with San Miguel County and not through social media. Please respect the status of trails so they aren't...

It's my only ride, so when I need to go places outside quick walk/bike distance it also gets to go (unless I drive my mom's car to occasionally start it up, which is a 2013 Escape). For work, two days a week I have to be in Denver so my round trip each day for that is 225 miles; the other three...

Twilight got new tires today (hopefully I can wash her this weekend ha): BFG Trail-Terrain TA 245/65R17. I do not have a lift on my Big Bend.

Sorry about your hitch cover! Someone stole my plain, black, no frills plastic hitch cover that was like $6, so I'm not sure even the design matters. I'm replacing it with a $5 plain, black, no frills plastic hitch cover that has holes drilled so I can use my locking hitch pin on it...

My rides were: '90 Dodge Spirit '00 Suzuki Esteem (traded in for Stratus) '02 Dodge Stratus (totaled after hitting a deer) '08 Honda Civic (traded in for CR-V) '14 Honda CR-V (totaled after accident) '14 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI (sold to get my BS).

True statement! Ha!

Finally decided on a place to mount my fire extinguisher.

I had my BS about 2 weeks before she took her first windshield hit here in Colorado (multilane highway. Car was 2 lanes over from me but that rock flew my way) resulting in a windshield replacement as it cracked across the entire windshield that day. My insurance paid for an OEM replacement; 6...

Are you talking about the panel on the left with the avatar/photo, or the actual signatures that show up on posts at the bottom? I added a signature to show up on the bottom.

I actually like seeing everyone's signature, but hadn't done one for myself, so I added it. I agree it provides good information about advice.

At 6 months and 6 days old, Twilight crossed over the 15,000 miles mark today. This weekend is car wash and windshield chip repairs (thanks, Colorado roads)! She's had 2 oil changes, a windshield replacement, and an interior panel rattling fixed; I'll probably have them look at the brakes next...

That's good to know, thanks! I will say that the Rapid Crossroad feet do keep the rack surprisingly secure given its a rubber strap. I appreciate you checking that out and posting back!

How do you feel the Thules do for noise? I have the same ones and I feel they are noisy (compared to how the bars were on previous vehicles) but I haven't had a different bar set on the car to compare.

Not in Colorado.

I'll play. 39 Gal 22' Big Bend 13,771 mi Sure do! Hopefully I can do a good cleaning this weekend before the next round of snow on Monday.
