  1. I just bought a hitch bike rack for my wife’s Escape. Anyone know if I could turn off the rear sensor? It’s a constant beep everytime she puts it in reverse.
  2. I'm looking to replace the headlights and fog lights on my 2016 Titanium to the white LED's. Ive watched four different videos on youtube about how to change them. Has anyone done this? If so, is it hard to do? Any certain LED's you'd recommend? Thanks for any info
  3. I chewed up my rim trying to avoid an accident in a Target parking lot today. Almost half the rim got chewed up by the curb. I'm looking online to buy a new rim. My rims are the H-spoke in a dark grey. Online I keep seeing ones that are called Hyper Grey? Just want to make sure that is the right color. Thanks
  4. Can someone please let me know how many days bereavement pay we get? I thought it was 5 days for immediate family (dad,mom,brothers,sisters) and 3 days for in-laws, grandparents etc. I can't find my contract book or I wouldn't ask. Thanks

    '08 Fusion

    I actually have my eye on a 2016 Titanium in Platinum White. Not a fan of the new shifter thing in the 2017. Hoping to get 3-4K for my Fusion
  6. I'm on my second set of this Mich Primacy MXM4, tires are pricey but worth it. I live in New England and have never had a problem with my AWD in the rough winters

    '08 Fusion

    I have a 2008 Fusion SEL AWD, for the past few weeks/month I've noticed a burning oil smell after I get out of the car. I took it in today for an oil change and was told it has a PTU leak. Dealer said if the PTU goes, it can be really expensive. Don't know too much about cars so I'm wondering if it's worth fixing or just trade it in? Car has 120K miles on it. Thanks
  8. Posting this question for my brother who lives in a different state, so let me say I don't know what the key looks like. He lost the keys to his 2008 F-150. Anyone have any idea what he needs to do to get new ones? One dealer told me they only carry keys dating 6 years back, that the best option was to call an automotive locksmith. Another dealer told me to tow it in, they'd have to cut keys for it and reprogram the keys. Cost would be $190 plus tax. Anyone know if this sounds right? Or is there another option? Thanks for any info
  9. My wife has a 2016 platinum with all the bells and whistles. She wants to get a trailer hitch for a bike rack. Dealer told me I'd have to buy a new cover with the cut out for the hitch. Dealer wants $200+ for the cover, I can get it online for $75. Wondering if it is hard to change myself. Her truck has the foot swipe thing and park assist. Thanks
  10. I have a 2016 Platinum with Nav. Last Saturday I was driving to my kids soccer game and the Nav system crapped out while driving. All I could see was the arrow which depicts my car, but no streets/ highways etc. pulled over and wound up using my phone to find the field. After the game, I set the Nav to take me home and it worked fine but I noticed on the left side of the screen, it said GPS but with a red ghostbusters sign over it, as if to say no GPS. "Sorry about the ghostbusters reference but I can't think of the name of the red thing." It worked fine. Today I used it again and same thing, Nav worked fine but I still have the GPS with the ghostbusters sign over it. Any idea what that is? Thanks in advance BTW, its a 2016 Platinum with Sync 3
  11. Just got my wife a new Escape Titanium with Sync 3. Her phone is hooked up to it, but we've noticed that every once in a while, a wifi signal shows up on the touch screen. Anyone have a clue as to what this is? Does the car turn into a hotspot? Thanks for any info
  12. Can someone please udate me about my new Focus VIN# 1FADP3N24DL160790. Thanks
  13. Can anyone update the status of my new Focus VIN# 1FADP3N24DL160790. Thanks
  14. Can anyone get me any info on the build status for a Focus VIN# 1FADP3N24DL160790. Thanks

    Tires

    I am looking to replace my OE Michellens on my AWD 08 Fusion. I've been checking around and found these Hankook V2 tires that were basically the same as the Mich but for half the price. Anyone have any input on these tires or any other comparable all-season tires? I live in New England so an all-season tire is a must. Thanks

    Analog clock

    Thanks for the info!
  17. Can someone tell me how to replace the bulb on the analog clock on my 08 Fusion? How do you take the clock out? Thanks
  18. I'm looking to buy new tires for my Fusion. Right now I have the original Michellen's and when I priced them, they are pretty expensive. I also looked at comparable tires and saw that the Continental DSW's had better ratings than the Michellen's for about $200 less. Anyone know anything about these tires or any other tires (all-season) that would be good for my car? Thanks
  19. Can anyone get me some info for Vin #2FDMDK48C08BA38870. Thanx
  20. I've had Cigna for almost 4 years up here in CT. No problems. I've had my allergy meds (Zyrtec) not covered but switched to Allegra and no problem! I've also had my wife covered for two C-sections over the last 2 1/2 years and no problems. All I had to pay was the copay ($10)! Hope this helps.
  21. Does anybody know what brand DVD player is installed in the Explorer? I have a loaded '06 Eddie Bauer and I want to see if I can hook up an interactive game for my kid to play with but I need to know what make the DVD player is so I can enter the code of the DVD player. Thanx for any info.
  22. If it looked any better it would be UGLY!!! There goes another product down the
  23. I'm pretty sure with the gas prices and the fact that sales are down, you'll be seeing better lease deals on all the bigger SUV's and better rebates. I traded in my '02 Escape for a '06 Explorer Eddie Baurer with all the bells and whistles. Absolutely love it. I've had it for 4 months and have no complaints.
