News involving Marti Reports would travel quickly, in threads or reported articles.
FWIW, I've not heard or read any news of them no longer providing the service.
Negotiating an update to the existing contract could take time. Ford and Marti might be using new systems. Transfer or access to...
An entire section is dedicated to pre-collision assist. Attached is an excerpt.
The feature/s used both the camera and the radar sensor.
Pre-collision assist is active at 3 mph/5 kph and higher.
There are adjustments the driver can make and limits of the system. The manual explains those in...
This is cool. These have been listed on eBay in the last day or two.
"Ma" is the pronnounciation of the Mandarin symbol for horse. Depending on how said, it can note a horse, a mother or ask a question.
The symbol on the side of this S650 die cast is the Chinese zodiac symbol for horse.

Fraud case, no. Ford makes it clear in web pages and documentation that, while the features are a Ford product, they are not necessarily available in every model, every trim level. It depends.
Confusion, yes. Ford is not clear in what vehicles have features like these, almost any model year...
This, +1.
Get an additional quote, preferably two more. For greater detail on the process and better definition of pricing.
Clarify to the shop if you'll be paying out of pocket, using insurance or ask for two quotes. Pricing between the two can sometimes be huge. The money spent working...
Congrats on the build. :thumbsup:

Flat Rock, yes?
Looking back through previous threads, Ford schedules were Wed-Wed; this constituted one week of production. The term week means they will be assembling vehicles in that block of time, but it does not mean they will be building cars every day.
The number of shifts per day...
Different vehicle manufacturer systems can have different operating characteristics, but some additional thoughts on training new wheels:
- The pressures in the wheels should be what's required for the vehicle. Wheels pressured too high or too low can cause problems. Even one wheel too...
I'd double-back with them to confirm what's installed, maybe having to breakdown one wheel to check.
Something that plagues many wheel swaps is the use of non-OEM sensors. Many times they work. Sometimes they don't. In the US, the sensor frequency did change from the 6G to the 7G cars. I'm not...

Are these Ford sensors you're trying to train? Another brand?
While you're at it, I'd also take the time to re-check the routing of all wiring, connectors, vacuum lines, etc. Check to see that things are connected well, but also out of the way, so as not to melt once the engine is up to temps. Space is tight. Visibility in some areas is less than ideal...
The topic of if a dealer will install an item arises from time-to-time. Will the dealer install the part? Most will not.
An excerpt from the 7G Warranty Guide:
"The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover any damage caused by:
•alterations or modifications of the vehicle, including the...
We've had a few threads about fluctuating coolant levels, downward-trending coolant or coolant smells.
The smell of coolant seems to be the most common characteristic. At a given pressure, the coolant overflow tank will gas-off to the engine. If you study your overflow tank, there should be a...
It's not necessarily an issue. If you intend to hold the car for quite some time, the history will later show the event was a one-off and that was that.
As part of any negotiations, ask the dealer to throw in an extended warranty for free.
Ask the dealer for an Oasis Report. That report captures all the warranty work that has been done since the car was new. It should offer additional insight, like customer and mechanic comments. CarFax listed the vibration. The Oasis might clarify the issue. And it could also list several other...
This specific example could be weather-related.
Because of the tires installed on HP cars (they can crack in below-40F/4C temps), Ford doesn't build those vehicles from about Nov-Mar. It's normal for someone to place an order in a Winter month, with the build not moving forward until April or...
Ford has a general idea of how many of what vehicle they can build at any given time. If they can build 500 in one cycle, they'll have a pool of 500 allocations available to all dealers. The allocation system ensures every dealer has a chance to order at least one vehicle. Ford does skew those...
I use Autotrader when looking for comps. https://www.autotrader.com/
$40K for what you describe rates low price-wise. If a retail sale from a dealer, I'd be critical. If a private sale from an individual, I'd want to know more.
See if you can get an oasis report from a Ford dealer. This report...
I'm refreshing myself on this topic and including several links, one of which references a Special Service Message that might be involved.
The problem you're encountering plagued several cars early on in production. I noticed your car is a 2024; it might be one of those.
The fix is simple: at...
