Got my visor replaced at the dealer this week. Range increased from about 5 ft to about 50ft. Pretty happy about it

Just got my visor replaced and now works 100 feet away. If you haven't done it. I would definitely recommend it.

I have a 2016 Lariat with a January build date and my home link performs very poorly - inconsistent open/close and the range has to be w/in 15' or so. I only have the one Garage door so I've just been using my opener that came with it since it has a great range and always opens/closes when pushed. It hasn't been a big deal for me but if the TSB is updated to include some 2016's I'll most likely take it in.

It helped my Sep 2015

I'm in the same boat. My build date is 12/02/2015 (at least that's what's on the windows sticker so build date is a couple days later) and the TSB is for builds prior to 11/31/2015. I back in to my garage and have to be inches away from the door to get it to open. I already reprogrammed with a new battery in the OEM remote, didn't help. Anyone have success getting the visor replace for a vehicle outside of the TSB build window? And if so, did it resolve the issue?

The strange thing for me is that I have 2 homes (weekend/lake home) and the remote works perfectly fine at the non-primary home. But I've tried everything to make sure there is no interference where I'm having problems. And the OEM remote works perfectly fine.

Mine works from a distance of 150-200' from the garage. Similar distance as my traded Ram and my Corvette. So, no issues here.

Had mine replaced yesterday.. While not as good as the handheld controls it's at least usable now.. Can now open and close garage door from driveway where before it would only close it.

Is there a tsb for this? I skimmed through the thread but didn't see one

SSM 45635 - 2015 F-150 - Universal Transmitter - Poor Range - Built On Or Before 11/30/2015

Some 2015 F-150 vehicles built on/or before 11/30/2015 and equipped with a universal transmitter may exhibit poor range while attempting to operate a garage door. A poor range concern may be present if the battery was weak in the original transmitter used to program the universal transmitter. If the universal transmitter is inoperative at any distance, refer to the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 419-02 for normal diagnostics. If the universal transmitter functions properly at a very close distance, poorly at normal distances and the battery of the original transmitter was good when programming the universal transmitter, then replace the sun visor. The sun visor has been updated for this concern. Refer to the parts catalog for the appropriate part number required for each vehicle.

I have a two door attached garage and a detached single door garage. With my homelink 3 button visor, my detached single door works from 50-80 ft. max, which is fine for me. The attached two door garage, one button works the door from 50 ft. or so but the other door I almost have to touch with the front bumper to get it to open. I also have to turn the visor down to get it to close when leaving. Twin identical liftmaster units in attached garage, single jackshaft style unit in detached garage using a homelink signal converter to operate the opener. Oh, and of course, the one with no range is the door I use daily!
