1. Day after purchase because the door keycode card was missing, so had to hook it up to the computer.
2. Steering wheel controls for changing channels/volume sticking together
3. Seat stitching in King Ranch rear seat came undone. Ordered replacement leather seat but was the wrong one even though they installed it anyways. Had to wait 2 weeks.
4. Next day, came back to inform them they installed the wrong leather seat, ordered another replacement (correct one this time) and installed. Gave me rental car this time for their mistake while being installed. Had to wait another 2 weeks.
5. Oil Change (5000 miles), tire/balance rotation and squeaky brakes.
6. Remote start climate control issue not turning on the heated seats - not fixed yet or unable to determine issue as weather isn't cold enough yet.
Got truck in June and currently has about 6200 miles on it.

One visit.. for trans issue. 12k miles on truck!

To the above post, the remote start will NOT turn on your heated seats when you turn on the truck. Once you turn the truck off the seats are reset to the off position. kind of dumb if you ask me, but the good thing is that they heat up quick!

Incorrect statement, they SHOULD/DO turn on with a remote start, just like the cooled seats turn on with a remote start when the weather is hot.

In the manual it states the following:
(Page 81, Owners Guide, 3rd Printing)

REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system will condition the cabin temperature during remote start based on the outside temperature. Engine idle may increase to help with adjusting the cabin temperature.


Automatic climate control
For hot weather conditions:
The interior cabin will be cooled to 72°F (22°C).
The cooled seats (if equipped and if the feature is selected to AUTO in the message center) will be set to high.

For cold weather conditions:
The interior cabin will be heated to 72°F (22°C).
The heated seats (if equipped and if the feature is selected to AUTO in the message center) will be set to high.
Rear defrost/heated mirrors (if equipped) will be activated.

I stand corrected, where would I set my seats to auto?

XLT 3.7L SCREW 6200 miles

First trip (oil changes not included) scheduled for Wednesday. Driveline clunks, and slips getting worse. TSB for problem has been issued, should be an easy fix.
