Example of modern corporate cost cutting, they went from standard LED tail lights to Halogen on the Rebel. Typically, refreshes actually improves the equipment, but not everywhere.
Luckily, the pre-facelift tail lights look better anyways, no interest in "upgrading" to the newer tail light...
Wow, thanks for sharing, I suspected it would be some cheap little connection that would be the main problem.
Since I live in a temperate zone, if mine ever starts to leak, I'm just going to do a permanent block off to the heater core and call it a day, assuming I'm out of warranty.
Buy a cheap OBDII reader on Amazon, they usually start at $15 or so. Use the Torque phone app and check the code. Hopefully just a minor emissions code, you can clear it with the app, and see if it pops up again.
I personally would leave the code up and have the dealer take a look.
Back on the F150 forums, the favorite aftermarket replacements, often for bulging acorn nuts, similar to RAMs as well, was Gorilla. I bought a black replacement set, seemed good quality. I got them from American Truck.
If you can't find an OEM upgrade, I highly recommend buying an aftermarket TPMS on Amazon for $50-$70. Super easy to install, the sensors simply replace the dust covers on the valve stem, and the receiver is the size of a deck of cards, wireless and can be put anywhere in the cab. You can...
The only thing you can do is upgrade to the steering wheel with the backside audio controls, it may require updating the feature software as well.
That's pure cost costing, how much does Stellantis save by removing the steering wheel backside audio buttons? I honestly didn't think RAM made a...
I've seen universal carpeted dashboard protectors bought at the swap meet that fit better than that.
Sorry you're going through that man, but if the dealer won't give you goodwill, there is alternatives with upholstery shops, find one that has good ratings on Yelp and see what they say..
Try Discount Tire/America's Tire, they won't charge you to talk to them, tell them your situation, they may have a better idea than even the dealer on what's going on. Maybe another batch of bad sensors or the receiving unit?
They may help you narrow it down and give you some ammo with the...
Maxcare and most extended "full coverage" type warranties rarely cover anything considered cosmetic, such as paint or interior soft bits, body gaskets and seals.
Your best bet is to have a good independent automotive upholstery shop take a look at it. They may be able to spot repair it, or...
Typically takes 10 miles, but sometimes more. Are you sure they changed the pressures? Because they often forget, especially since the Rebel has such different setting front to rear. If they forget to change them, it will read 45F/55R.
If that's the reading you are seeing in your truck...
I use 2x half gallon Ziploc bag method, I have never spilled a drop, it's honestly one of my easiest oil filter changes with that method.
Give it a try next time, just unscrew the filter half turn, slip on the first Ziploc bag, keep unscrewing until it starts leaking into the bag, then after it...
They moved the spec to 0W-20 from 5W-20, you did exactly what the dealer is already probably doing. I also moved to 0W-20 on my 2019, now our Tahoe 6.2L, Toyota C-HR and my RAM are all under the same oil, I can use PUP OW-20 for all of them.
The computer will count down depending on your driving style, as early as 3,500 miles and as long as 10,000 miles. Most go off at around 7,500 - 9,000 miles based on average driving styles.
It's up to you on how you follow this, many do it earlier, at say 5,000 miles regardless of what the...
Me as well, I've been looking. There are a few nice die-cast models, especially of the Rebel, but nothing in the RC world yet. That's reserved for Raptors and Wranglers it seems.
I don't think I've run across one. Hobby grade level RC vehicles usually focuses on stylizing a body to fit a RC chassis, rarely does it look accurate to real life, kinda like how a Baja 1000 Trophy truck looks in comparison to the real thing. The exception being crawler specific RC, they tend...
I'm pretty heavy in the RC world, until most recently my new hobby of Jet Ski fishing has taken up my interest, but still do RC a lot.
Mainly RC plane foamies, 1200mm Warbird types with 4S lipos.
1/5th scale gas and brushless electric trophy trucks and buggies
1/10th scale electric indoor race...
It's got to be a sensor of some sort. The engine light would not go on at those temps, you will get a high coolant temp warning at around 245F (118C) and oil temp warning at 290F (143C).
What did the code say for the check engine light that went off recently?
I have a Rebel with no shutters, but I can tell you your temps seem pretty normal.
Could your aftermarket shutters somehow not be sending the right signals and causing the occasionally codes?
