After the last update I started getting charging system needs attention once every time I dove. I always have a 5 amp tender on if the car is not going to be used for a time.
I know what my charge rate is while driving and didn't see any issue.
I then decided to do a battery reset and haven't...
Riding the clutch is when one uses the trottle at much higher RPM and doesn't fully engage the clutch. Some people will also feather the clutch while greatly varying RPMs and not moving the car little distance.
Fords latest letter I received is for inspection only. Mine is not leaking and there is no way they will put the black goop anywhere on my car. I had the windshield already replace after a stone hit. My glass guy went through many windshield to even find one worth installing. If they happen...
I grab where the latch is and bring the hood down swiftly in one continuous motion removing my hand about one quarter of the way down. I have seen aluminum hoods get dimples from hands pushing from the top. This way I never get finger prints to wipe off.
It's not hard to do your own water test and inspection. Anyone that has had the fix done and still has water coming in more than likely didn't have it done properly. They are suppose to retest after the fix is done. If the fix was right and water is coming in its coming from somewhere else...
Make the strap proper length so it does not end up in the gasket. Never had a hand or fingers get caught in closing lid. Touching the paint on the edges to close can over time wear paint especially when hands might be dirty. Everyone has their own ideas for what works for them.
Mine looks similar. I did this after the second week of ownership. The decklid closes easy when cooler. If the car has been in the sun it closes with more resistance once the strut assists get hot.
They should do a vacuum with a leak down test. Hope its a o-ring seal and not in the evaporator/condensor or compressor seal. These systems have very little freon compaired to the ones yesteryear. A small loss of freon will cause the system to not work.
No one else is having your issues. Get it fixed or sell it. Its so very hard to understand someone compain and then post and not taking effort to do anything about it.🤬
If the present fix is not working and Ford is coming out with a new one in few months gives me new thoughts. There must be another issue causing water intrusion from a different area. The way they slopped black crap in areas should have stopped water from a hurrican.
The last letter I received from Ford was for an inspection only. No water intrusion no fix needed. I did my own inspection and water test using Ford proceedures. Some day I may let the dealer clear my recall but not until Ford gets its act together.
