Everyone on this board has such a hard on for Ford. And they’re not shite vehicles. But I swear it’s literally a Ford every single thread about “My such and such is broken.”

The OT is providing an implicit lesson here....

....that maybe Fords are shite vehicles.

It’s a 2017 lariat - and mine is company vehicle- so it’s free. I’d drive a yugo that’s free. My other personal vehicles have all been Toyota for 26 years

Last week the Bluetooth kept disconnecting, and screen function has progressively gotten worse. It will not connect to bluetooth, the push button dials for radio will not turn unit on or off now. The wire connection for sync was my way around Bluetooth, and now it will not function.
All push buttons are delayed a minute or more. And gps quit today.
Obviously it’s fried, anyone else see the issue?
I have master reset a bunch of times, disconnected fuses and battery to reset, it’s toast.



Might not be your problem, but I hat a host of similar problems, and stranger things like the radio not cutting off after I turned off the car and shut the doors, nav system rebooting with no reason, AC working some times, but not others, etc.

Turned out my battery was bad and causing everything to go to shite.

Mine did the same thing in February and had to get it replaced. Unfortunately, it appears it might be happening again. This was my first truck and my last ford.

Bought one new last year and had ZERO anything in the first year




I have owned about 8 new Nissans and can say the same and everybody here agrees that Nissan is not at the top of the reliability mountain.

To me, initial quality means very little. If anything fails during the first year, warranty will cover it. I keep my vehicles well past the end of warranty. Other trade in their vehicles every few years. Most new vehicles are fine the first year.

Will probably be buying my first truck and while I like the styling and interior of the Ram, the possible costs down the road to repair that fancy 85" touchscreen or all the other high tech stuff scares me.

I have had to take 3 ford owners to the shop or pick them up all less than 2 years old 2 F150's 1 Raptor.
The raptor had sunroof fail had to take the headliner out for a 25 cent cheap plastic part in the motor.
The other 2 were computer/ electrical issues that could not be resolved on the 1st try.

I don't know whats up but as nice as they look and ride I would not buy one.

These are called "design features".

Have you checked the truck nuts? Maybe too small for the vehicle.
