I posted this in a thread, but figured I would share here too. I asked Kicker if the VSS package would work with my 2016 Screw that has Start/Stop. The rep said it would not due to the voltage dropping. He said this is true of all aftermarket products...(I suppose you could turn off S/S but that is beside the point)

BUT, he said they are making a new product that will work with this setup that will be available through Ford dealers...due in about 60 days. See his exact words from my email below:

"The voltage drops when the engine is off. Aftermarket products are incompatible too. We are working on a system that will be sold thru Ford dealers that will be compatible. It’s about 60 days from release.

It works fine with stop/start, I have it in my truck. The sound will cut out for one second when the engine cranks to restart but that's it, aside from the wear and tear this may cause. I fixed the problem by disabling the stop/start function... that I hate so very much.

I received my VSS PowerStage from Stage3MotorSports last week, and was finally planning on installing it tomorrow in my 2016 2.7L....should I not do it now?

Well, sounds like it would be fine if you disable your S/S. So, depend on what you want. Or, you can be the experiment for us!

Ugh, I don't want to disable the start/stop. I *wanted* to buy a solution that would work for my truck. Not real happy now, but glad I saw this before installing it.
