Unable to run Vehicle Health Report
SteveB_TX replied to kash80's topic in Maintenance & Do It Yourself
I had a similar issue. For me, the fix was to un-pair the phone, delete the phone in Sync, and re-pair the two. It worked for me anyway. :) -
Should I do the 50,000 miles service (2013 FFH)?
SteveB_TX replied to LEM's topic in Maintenance & Do It Yourself
Don't listen to "suggested" maintenance from your dealership. Go by what the Owners Guide shows for maintenance. My stealership always says such and such should be done at so and so miles. WRONG!! :) -

We take all three of our vehicles to the Ford dealer for service, which is less than 2 miles from our home. The Lincoln dealer is over 15 miles away. The only time I have taken my MKZh to the Lincoln dealership was to have the handful of recalls done. They provide a free Lincoln loaner vehicle when your car must stay overnight (part of the Lincoln ownership benefits). I too had to drive long distance (150 miles) to find my MKZ hybrid. If you are planning on purchasing a new Lincoln in the near future, building a positive relationship with your Lincoln dealer's service department is never a bad idea. :)

Oh man! I was going to order a new Continental too! Maybe I should wait until year 2 so they can iron out all the issues. My 2013 MKZh has had so many recalls I can't count them all. I guess it will be my last year 1 model purchase. Yeah right. I said that about the 2005 Mustang GT convertible I ordered. Lost count on it's recalls as well. Grrrr.

Does defroster setting automatically turn on AC compressor?
SteveB_TX replied to sschnath's topic in 2013-2016 Fusion Hybrid
Put the power usage thingy in your My View on the left cluster. If the climate indicator is showing, that means the A/C compressor is running. (Usual disclaimer applies) :) -
15S16 (door latches) parts are now available
SteveB_TX replied to machoman1337's topic in Recalls, SSMs & TSBs
Dropping my Z off in the morning to have all 5 recalls done on it. At least I was promised a Lincoln loaner. Hope it is an MKC as I really want one of those beauties! :) -
I had/have the same issue with my MKZ. I was going to take it to the dealership and complain about a $50,000 car with a squeaky drivers seat. Before I could take it in, I had to readjust the seat up and down and the seat back forward/aft. After the adjustments the squeak was gone. Hmmm. The next time it squeaked I did the same procedure. It fixed it again. I am guessing that over time, the seat gets used to its position and wants to be noticed. I dunno. Worked for me. :)

SteveB_TX replied to jadei's topic in Body Exterior
I truly believe the automotive repair industry and the concrete parking stop industries are in cahoots. May as well toss in the insurance industry, since they can raise your rates for having to pay to fix your car after ripping the front bumper off! ;) -
Our FFH has yet to have the update show up on the owner web site. No worries. I used the update I downloaded for the MKZh from the Lincoln owner website and installed it on the Fusion. Works like a charm. Now, if only Ford would get the Ford owner website working so it shows the update available for our FFH, I can upload the version info to the site and be done with it. :)

The Z has had push button shift since the restyle in 2013. I love it. Cleans up the console for more useful storage. :)
