  1. Change in Beeps, Bloops, Bongs after Update for Trailer Recall

    Since that last update I get two weird chimes(?) (honks? bells?) when I start up after it's been parked for a while. It sounds like some sort of emergency notification so it makes me jump, but nothing comes up on the screen or dash. Kind of annoying.
  2. So turn by turn directions just appeared

    Hola, e gracias! That's exactly what appears to be happening. Thanks!
  3. Weird Android Auto Event

    Mine had changed to Gemini. When I made Google assistant the default it seems to have fixed things. Thanks for the help.
  4. So turn by turn directions just appeared

    I have a 24 Lariat. When using Android Auto I've always had a tiny arrow at the top of the dash display telling me where to turn. This morning, a much bigger display showed up for about 5 minutes, then disappeared. A few lights later it's was there again. Picture shows the big directions on...
  5. Show us your Azure Gray Ranger!

    24 Lariat. I love this truck.
  6. 265/70R17 or 285/70R17 - is there that much difference?

    Ride is slightly harsher and noise is slightly more. Neither is that bad at all. It's still quieter than my wife's 2025 Forester.
  7. Collision Avoidance in 2024 Lariat Seems to Have Stopped Working

    The times it did work, before it seemingly stopped working, it scared the crap out of me.
  8. Clunk at Low Speeds - Transmission?

    I spoke with a service tech. He said his Ford vehicle does the same thing, and that the way it brakes when it thinks it's too close to something is very "finicky" and will sometimes brake harder than you expect giving the feeling you hit something.
  9. Collision Avoidance in 2024 Lariat Seems to Have Stopped Working

    Follow-up Follow-up: Had the coax cable replaced yesterday, and service tech said they did a full recalibration on all cameras and radar. Not sure how they do that. He also said that I was getting a loss of communications error before, and it's gone now with the new cable install. However, he...
  10. Clunk at Low Speeds - Transmission?

    That's interesting, and a possibility. I was getting close to another vehicle as I backed up. Maybe it hit the brakes for me? I've never had it happen like that before though.
  11. Clunk at Low Speeds - Transmission?

    I'll look into that. It was an issue with the 5G Ranger Tremors.
  12. Clunk at Low Speeds - Transmission?

    Yesterday I was backing out of a parking spot at a grocery store. Going slow, watching for oblivious people walking and other traffic, and watching my camera as a backed close to another vehicle. Then a rough shake/jar/jolt like I had hit something. My first thought was I missed something in...
  13. Software Update TCU-25.2.8.5 -- 04/11/26

    Thanks! It wasn't easy to find but I got it. Appreciate the help!
  14. Software Update TCU-25.2.8.5 -- 04/11/26

    I got that too, and now Gemini wants to take over for Android Auto and it SUCKS.
  15. Weird Android Auto Event

    Now there's something I hadn't thought of, and makes some sense. I'm going to look into that some more.
  16. Weird Android Auto Event

    It has only been delay warnings, but it has happened when I haven't set a destination - if I'm not going anyplace specific, how can it know if there's a delay?
  17. Weird Android Auto Event

    No, there's not. At least not that I'm aware of. I guess it's possible someone got access (accidentally or otherwise) to my stuff when the truck started
  18. Weird Android Auto Event

    Not sure; possible I guess, though in the same trip I got another "delayed X minutes" message, again with my voice directions on mute.
  19. Weird Android Auto Event

    I use Android Auto; it hooks up as soon as I start my 2024 Lariat. I always keep the voice directions muted though as they drive me crazy. So yesterday I get into my truck to leave work and as soon as I start to leave my parking spot the female AA voice (I get both a male and a female...
