I spoke to a Ford rep today and she was unclear if these missing parts would be installed eventually. She said if the dealer told me that the parts will be installed then they will definitely do it when parts are available. She also had no idea that Ford gave credits for these parts that aren’t installed. Not sure what to make of this deal.

What is missing on the 2022 ST from factory
- Thread starter StellaST
- Start date
I doubt it, these supply issues are not disappearing any time soon unless these car companies build their own chip fabs. By the time the new models are out they will have their own supply issues and they will not be making the 2022 parts anymore.
Just a thought, I hope that is not the case but it seems like that's the direction they're headed.

I just got mine from Ford 2 day's ago. The active motion seats and not in mine one of the guy's at my dealership told me that they took them out because of the chip shortage. I have the 401A Package. But on Ford website it still says that they still come with the Active motion seats. https://www.ford.com/suvs/explorer/features/design/
No mine did not come at rear climate controls. But I talked to the sales manager at the dealer today and they said once the chip shortage gets better they're going to start making them and you're going to get a notification and then you'll make an appointment with the dealer and they'll install it free of charge.

New here.
Picked up a 2022 401A to replace a 2021 401A that was totaled when an older woman pulled out in front of my wife (failure to yield). The short list of things that are missing/ changed:
- Start button green light is gone
- Front cup holder ambient lighting
- Rear floor mounted cup holders - this is actually better with two little kids. That thing was always a disaster.
- Massaging seats
- Rear HVAC controls - to be added at a later date per the dealer
- 2nd row heated seats - to be added at a later date per the dealer
- Hill descent control Auto Park Control (top right button in drive mode cluster)
- Rear lift gate hands free capability
- Digital cabin temp indicators in the front HVAC cluster
Also new in 2022 - electronic e-brake sets when putting in park. This is annoying, does anyone know how to disable?
