    2010 - no key detected, not the fob or battery...

    I had the same issue and through research discovered that some brands of batteries for these fobs just don't have the juice that others do. Before I found the solution I tried a couple of different brands. The brand that fixed my issue (in both remotes after replacing the batteries) was...

    Potential Buyer, quick question about the Performance Pack

    Actually those 2 buttons are the auto parallel park option and the lane departure warning/assist. This normally means the car has the driver assist package which means it cannot have the PP package, they are mutually exclusive. I have the same buttons in front of my shifter, my car was...

    Deer VS. SHO

    I had a very similar thing happen to me, I was going 55mph, huge deer, $14.5K give or take. Intercooler, front end, radiator, hood, drivers fender, both headlight assemblies and replacing the grill bits of the adaptive cruise system. First car I've ever purchased, first deer I've ever hit, had...

    SHO vs Stinger

    Perhaps the wife and I have gotten old and soft but everytime we have to drive a Kia, rental or whatever, we really notice it just feels cheap. Granted we are both used to higher end cars that are fully loaded with all the bells and whistles. The wife drives a Acadia Denali and I've driven 2...

    Key fob problems

    I will point out that I had lots of troubles with both of my FOBs once the original battery got weak. These FOBs are VERY sensitive on what batteries they like. I found Energizer works best in mine. Once I installed Energizer batteries all the problems I was having went away.

    Who tightened the rear spoiler at the factory?

    Over the weekend I checked the spoiler on my 2016, it is nice and tight on both sides.

    New v11 tune update!

    I had offered up my car for them to ship and test with. I got a call from them telling me to upgrade to a newer version rather than sending them my car and that should fix my issue. I haven't had the time to do so yet.

    Who tightened the rear spoiler at the factory?

    My 2011 was loose post rear end collision damage, not sure if it was that way before or not honestly. The shop tightened it after I pointed it out. Honestly haven't noticed or checked my 2016.

    Still the youngest one on this site

    Yea, I'm 50, just had my first colonoscopy last week, a bunch of us guys at work around the same age were at my desk discussing it, one of us has yet to have his but it is to be scheduled soon. The young guy on my team said "Hey old guys, sorry to quote MiB but I'm trying to get work done" lol...

    For those who do not like the flower wheels...

    Was driving through a ford dealership last night, saw a Taurus that looked just like mine (not in the for sale area), figured it wasn't a SHO because the wheels weren't flowers. As we drive up and I see the front, it was a SHO, looked just like mine, but no flower wheels lol. Wife is interested...

    Farewell Ford and SHO...

    They are also smaller now, wife won't get another because of the downsize, and the issues. She considers this vehicle cursed and will not be getting another.

    Am I Stupid?

    Nice to hear I'm not the only one that went from one SHO to a newer SHO, 2011 base model to 2016 loaded.
