Pre-warranty expiration service

[RickLightning]

Dropped off the Lightning today (Mach-E after it is done) for a last pre-warranty-expiration visit. Had seen a few 12v battery warnings over the year, all right after updates being applied at dealer (they do use a power supply). Center screen freezing at times on a trip, and the frunk threw an error recently.

Within a hour, they messaged that a new center screen is on order, a new frunk latch, and 12V battery did fail the test.

Hopefully the Mach-E will go as smoothly, and also need a new 12v battery.

Buy that extended warranty!

The Lightning already has it, courtesy of Ford for a past issue, with the $100 deductible. The Mach-E does not, and at this point I'm not buying it.

I have 775 miles left on my factory warranty, but my truck is refusing to give me reasons to get one last free shot before the extended warranty kicks in. I do have to remember to go look at the rear light bar to make sure it hasn't accumulated condensation again, though.
