    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Lucky you! I had problems starting in the first year so I bought an ESP before the end of the 3 year warranty. Now it's been 9 months since I bought it and haven't had to use it. The CV axles and 4wd sensor were covered under powertrain so no deductible.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Those with no problems are almost unicorns like 2020 Explorers with no issues over several years. They exist but are not that common.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    I'm looking forward to this shangrila LMAO and I will turn off automatic updates and for 3 more years drive the damn thing with this version of Sync 3. Let the next owner deal with future versions.

    Transmission Whine

    Lucky you! Mine was built in 11/19 and has no mods and has had a slew of major problems from fuel pump at one year, rear glass, clutch/transmission rebuilt at 25K, catalytic converter, rear camera, half-shaft speed sensor, both CV boots/axles replaced for leaks, drivers seat panel, battery...

    Transmission Whine

    Wow a lot of miles and no problems? Is yours a 2020? I have only 42K miles and have had a slew of some major issues. Luckily all were repaired or replaced under warranty at no cost to me!

    Water Getting in Rear Spare Compartment

    There's a discussion about this and I believe it comes from the quarter panel window down into the tire compartment. I've not had this but some others have.

    Pirelli tire foam seperation

    I got new tires at about 40K miles and the rough ride of the old Pirellis is gone!

    Driver seat “clicking” - Driving me nuts!

    I've had this for almost 4 years and learned to live with it. I just play music loud!

    Sync and Screen Size...

    Me too all I did was delete my old phone and add a new one after not driving for 10 days. Then a few soft resets.

    Sync and Screen Size...

    Mine started curing itself since last Wednesday. A lot of features returned and memory holds some settings.

    Sync and Screen Size...

    It will get clogged up the more you use it. Good luck! I wish I had my slow old version that did everything. The software flaw allows the rwdata folder to not get purged making it run out of necessary memory capacity followed by loss of settings, preferences and features every time you restart...

    Sync and Screen Size...

    I hope you didn't upgrade from 22000 to 22251! That's the recent update with all the problems. It will clog up your memory and you'll lose many functions. There are numerous discussions online about it. In fact those who know how to are downgrading to 22000 from 22251 because so many features...

    Knowing what I know about the 2024 I would've waited for all the aesthetic and quality improvements especially on the interior!

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Funny! My 2020 ST a few days ago started to heal itself miraculously! Sync 3 build 22251 was a disaster for me. But then didn't drive it for 10 days. Came back started her up and tried to pair a new phone and had issues for 2 days. Then on the 3rd day a miracle occurred and now Sync does all the...

    Headlight, tailight seals

    This one hasn't happened to me yet and I'm at 42K miles. My 2013 Lincoln had this problem in the rear lightbar. It started at around 5 years old and would fill up with moisture in the fall and winter and in the summer the heat and sun would evaporate it all completely until the next cooler, wet day.

    6 Faults and AWD Module

    My dealership repaired this and the CV boot leaks under powertrain warranty.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Yes had those a few times and there are countless other symptoms. Wifi getting turned off was one of the first things for me along with Sirius preset pages and channel. There were so many different ones I lost count. Background colors changing after restart. FordPass stopped connecting.

    New Sync 3 Version 3.4.22251

    Don't let them update to 22251. That's the one that screwed a lot of people on here up. Someone should do a poll to see how many people with this version are experiencing problems. I think there are more people with problems than without. It only gets worse over time but then today all of a...

    Just took home a 2020 ST Street Pack with 36K miles. Anything to check?

    As many of us first year owners of the 2020, Ford never really finished R&D on this generation and rushed it to market. They cut too many corners so customers like yours truly have had to have a lot of major parts repaired or replaced under warranty fortunately, on what was supposed to be a...
