Everyone got the kings attention. Maybe we can get some decent spices now.

Default Cooling Seats - Are Your Seat Backs Working Properly?

So where is this TSB. I want to see if they fixed the hot exhaust issue. I am more worried about hot exhaust than anything.

This is what it was... I don't see how this could get anyone in trouble. Hell as much as we paid for these trucks Ford should be emailing us this info...

That is an internal type memo so I could see how someone could get in trouble I suppose.

I can pull it if you all want???

Really does not say much. Hell we knew before Ford that it needed some type of snorkel. But I agree they also need to redirect the hot air coming from the TED somewhere so it don't damage the seats or start a fire.

Silly me, I read into it that it would address the EXHAUST issue....although probably the whole design should be looked at in respect to the earlier models that WORKED.....at least light years better then the 2015s do (intake, exhaust and adequacy of the SIZE of the TED). Partial bandaids will not do what an engineered solution will do.....I think that is what we thought we paid for in the beginning.....smile.


Oh well, admission of a problem is a first step, I guess.....
