After more than a year of ownership, I decided to use the intelligent/adaptive cruise control system in morning traffic in Chicago. I 290 inbound to downtown from the 'burbs. It's a total gamechanger. I set the initial speed with traffic flow and then ratcheted up. Braking was a little...
UPDATE: I had body fasteners on hand (purchased in a kit for a different reason) found the right size, replaced failed fasteners and have had no problems since.
There is a small black trim plate between the rear hatch and roof. I assume it's there to help keep water out of the electronics in the hatch. The problem is that EVERY time I run the BSBL through a car wash the plate comes loose. Has anyone else experienced this? Dealer reseated it at the 10K...
The TPMS display constantly shows the tire that is currently in rear left position to be about 3 psi lower that the other 3 tires--despite being filled from the same compressor/regulator set to the same psi. I'm guessing that means it's base level calibration is "off" vs the other three sensors...
So I took a moment to prep for the season. I'll need these for Silver Lake dunes in Mears, Michigan. Anyone have other more or less local suggestions to keep my BS BL from spending 100% of the time on pavement?
Just adding my "two cents". I've got a BS BL (2.0L) with just over 4K on it. My driving is a mix of urban/suburban in the Chicago area. The best average mileage I've been able to squeak out is right about 25mpg using premium gas with mostly "normal" mode, and one or two passengers. I do use...
As of this note there have been two activations of the Brake Assist Warning, and one of a proximity (blind spot) alert that seem to have been errant in the last two days. I've driven my BS BL with 360+ for 3444 mi with no previous alerts--and haven't changed the settings since I adjusted them...
The 2023 BS BL has a memory feature for the driver's seat. Is it possible to add a position memory feature to a 2022? Up to and including replacing the driver's seat with a 2023 seat. Thoughts?
Not yet. Since at the moment the problem is intermittent, I want to see if I can discern a pattern. And because it's under warranty I'll let my Ford Dealer take a whack at it first.
My VIN3FMCR9D9XNRE11571 The dealer I used for the purchase is Packey Webb Ford, in Downers Grove,IL. I have not yet approached them to attempt a fix. I've been hoping it would happen a few more times so I could note what the circumstances were, i.e. phone plugged in or blue tooth, FM or...
Has anyone else had their entertainment (radio, Sirius, or Apple Play music) start up without being deliberately activated? So it's JDA (Just Driving Along) and suddenly music starts. This has happened twice in my BS Badlands, currently at 1500 miles.
The Full-Size Bronco includes trail map nav via the Ford Pass Performance App. Is it possible to add that to a BS BL with 360+ ? Or is there a recommended aftermarket/3rd party app for trail nav?
