Will that only work with Garage Door Openers that support Homelink?
@KurtsRPMGarageКүн бұрын
The mirror uses Homelink version 3. Bobsmirrors.com sells them and they state some newer garage door openers with a yellow antenna and yellow learn button will need a repeater installed to work. Virtually all older openers should work no problem. My garage is a from a company called “overhead door” and is over 30 years old. Works perfect for me.

@@taknmyshot my truck was bought by ford as a lemon. It was in the shop for over 50 days in the year and a half that I had it. There was a process I had to go through to do it but ford approved it. I removed everything that I could easily take off. The more integrated systems I just left. Someone actually reached out to me recently and said they found my truck for sale in North Carolina. I believe he bought it but haven’t heard from him since.

So you saved money by buying a non-compatible charger, with lots of add-on expenses. Genius. And, contrary to your comment, Lectron is not an approved (UL) item. They have also had recalls based on some really bad engineering. Tesla specifically recommends not using Lectron or A2Z connectors.

I believe your old truck is on auto trader now. It’s listed at $35,999. Looks like it ended up in North Carolina at Capitol Ford dealer there. I can’t provide the auto trader link here but a quick google should bring it up. VIN is 1FTVW1EL6PWG00106 and it’s a ford lighting 2023 pro with lariat steering wheel, front led and black stickered f150 decals. Its carfax is marked as lemon buyback from Villa ford in SoCal. So I believe it’s yours. If your curious as to what ford actually did with it. 😂

Hey. Sorry to bother you. I have a 2023 F150 Lightning Lariat extended range that I bought 3 months ago. And of those 3 months my truck has been at the dealership for two months . Failed modem (can’t do no updates and no access to ford pass app)and they still can’t fix it. I’m 1 month into my buy back process. I’ve documented everything and the EV Ford Rep was impressed and said he saw no issues with my buy back but couldn’t technically tell me that. You said they gave you what the vehicle cost without incentive, what about taxes and dealer fees did you get that back as well? I’m getting another 23 Lightning it a platinum this time. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.
@KurtsRPMGarageАй бұрын
@@csccerdafied hey no problem. Yes I got back taxes and fees as well. They do subtract a mileage fee. Mine was based on the first time I took it in to the dealer for warranty work (around 3000 miles). I think they took off about 1000$ on mine. When you factor in incentives though I came out way way ahead.

@KurtsRPMGarageАй бұрын
@@csccerdafied nice. From here if memory serves me right they will put together an offer. Things should move quicker now. Once you get the offer you can either accept or take a payout where you keep the truck but they write you a check as a sort of apology. If you accept the buyout a rep from your local dealer will coordinate the exchange. Mine took about a week to call me and I handed it over a couple days later. When you drop off the truck they will hand you a check. That’s pretty much it.

Nice. I actually bought a 23 Platinum that was repurchased by Ford. Bought it through a Dealer in Kansas. Built in 10 /23. Had a new battery installed and then it was hit by hail. Really the only damage was the hood and tonneau cover. I bought a new hood through my job for 375 bucks and had a body shop paint it to match for 560 bucks. And save over 40k off of list price. So far, it's been a gem!

Do y'all think they're bullshitting just so they don't have to do it? Or is there a way to check if I have the proper equipment for adaptive cruise control

Highly unlikely. While I did mess with some of the software. All I did was basically just turn on features that the truck already had. Almost every part I added was genuine ford.
