    No, not yet anyways......... I mean, Ford Corp had the tech flash the updates like 5 times over two visits to try and get it to work. They really seem the dealership to take this one step at a time before they put $1000+ parts and time into it for free to me LOL! As stated before, the Tech is...

    So let me say this, although I know of Forscan, I don't know the difference between what Ford dealers use and Forscan however, my buddy did tell me that he has it and has had to use it to help fix cars that had bricked modules and other things. He told me he is going to scan everything on the ST...

    Yeah, it seems to be the fix for others too and that's what so silly about all this, It's not like this is the first time you know?!?! Ford is just hoping to not have to replace it LOL.. Lucky for me, the Tech is a long time friend who just happens to work at my closest dealer so I know his...

    I'm in the same boat so to speak with a Apim and TCU issue....There are a number of issues that are leading to your long lead time. First off, CDK was hacked weeks ago and it put all the dealerships and service centers into a back log of work. CDK is the computer system used by thousands of...

    Okay so, next appointment is on the books for Wed the 23. They will have the truck until it is fixed or burnt to the ground LOL!!!

    LOL its always something right!! Heck, when I had my 2018 Audi S4 I had to have the darn dealer program my garage door opener b/c there was a TSB due to the fact that the front camera, rain sensor and door modules were all competing for signal and couldn't be done without turning other stuff...

    I think Ford Corp wants them to try again b/c they are having enough issues with getting the 2025 out right now. I live really close to one of the Midwest holding sites near Chicago and there are videos being posted on local pages with hundreds of 2025s just sitting in the lot waiting for some...

    New update. Ford came back and told the dealership to try uploading the package again and see if the car will take it... After speaking with the tech in length, it sounds like there were 5 updates needed in the package they tried to update and it took 4 of the 5 and ultimately caused it to fail...

I also have till 9/21/24 on the factory in service bumper to bumper. additionally, the blue cert gives me...

    That's good to know the Apim fix worked! I have been friends with this Tech at my dealer for 13 years and this is my 5th Ford from them so I know I'm in good hands. Although he did tell me to bring gas and matches HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. He did note that the Apim might not be my only issue as there...

    Update 2.0 - The dealership said they could not get it to update or respond. They told me its either a bag APIM or TCU. I have to go into the office tomorrow and they are fresh out of loaners so they told me to come pick it up until they hear back from Ford on next steps and most likely parts to...

    Update: So nothing has been fixed just yet however, I did notice something interesting. Maybe 1 out every 15 times I drive the vehicle for any length of time, i see the data up and down arrows in the upper right hand of the sync screen. When it is active, i can look at my hotspot data and...

    Safety Recall 22S27 Rear Axle Bolt Fractures

    My Audi S4 also did the auto brake in Park.... You cant even change the rear brakes without using a scan tool to put the stupid thing in service mode! As for Hill braking, I always put my foot on the brake, put the car in N, apply parking brake, let my foot of the brake so the weight of the...
