That is extremely interesting that you get climate controls using the 2018 Escape APIM.

Wonder if we can tweak the FFE APIM to get them.

No, on the FFE the climate controls do not show up on Sync 3 (as they do in other Fords)

Trying to recall, I think some places sell "kits" to allow a Sync 2 to 3 upgrade.

If you're out of warranty by only 4 months, call Ford yourself. I had a PT Cruiser that was just out of warranty. Power steering pump started leaking. Was going to be $1500 to repair. Called Chrysler, they said you pay $150, we'll pay the rest, and they did.

Sounds like it's the bunny hop.

Well, the dealership is now claiming it is sold. They didn't lower the price, so I wonder who bought it for how much? Somebody here? I hope so. There's always some sucker somewhere. I paid $1999 for a 20th Anniversary Macintosh (when Apple was closing them out) and then immediately sold it on eBay ...

I would have run after seeing the "shack"

I was getting intermittent navigation faults on my FFE. They replaced my APIM. I had to re-pair my phone (bluetooth) to the car. Anything else I should look into? Radio presets stayed, not completely sure the app and such are working. I was able to remote start the car, but didn't get the notificati...
