  1. My wife is 5 ft. She loves driving the CMAX. She can move the seat forward, adjust the seat back and the telescoping steering wheel. She uses a wedge shaped back pillow both driving and as a passenger. As a passenger she moves the seat about halfway and uses the cuss ion behind her back although I believe it was made for sitting on. She has used one of these for every car we have owned. Worth a couple bucks to try it. The CMAX is an amazing fun car. She loves it because while driving she can really see.
  2. I have the Sony upgrade system. I have turned the bass all the way and turned off the mid and treble then put the fade to the front. Ugly but the extreme treble is worse. Sure thought 9 speaker Sony audio system would have good sound :(
  3. I used the update on my 2013 CMAX. Worked fine. After the update use the Vehicle health report and it showed the new version.
  4. Not on 2015. Who would have thought they would remove this feature. Thanks for the reply. Now Inwill quit looking for it. :(
  5. Does the 2015 show gallons used for a trip. 2013 SEL. My 2013 CMAX SEL had a view showing gallons used. Did they get rid of this view or am I just not looking in the right place. Really liked this.
  6. Thank you all! I am sure I had grade assist on since it was going from high mountain pass with a very steep grade and many miles long. Makes sense now!
  7. I have a new CMAX SEL While driving at 63 mph the ice revved way high on three occasions. All freeway, all going downhill. The hill was quite steep and would not require the ice to run at all. If it were a standard 4 cry engine I would think it was past redline. Sure gets your attention. Stepped on the brake and it went away the did it twice more on this trip. Haven't driven on the freeway again. 1200 miles on the car when it went nuts. Didn't seem to hurt anything however.
  8. Have you replaced the cabin ir filter?
  9. That was the recall I was trying to recall! Hope it works out!
  10. Wasn't there a recall that includes five year warranty on the radio? I dont remember the recall number but it should show uo on Ford owner site. Worth a look. wish you a great Christmas season!
  11. I had the same problem with the xml file registering. I could not get the vehicle health report. Had to go to the dealer to get it corrected. All works after thier fix :)
  12. Thanks Is978300. This was just what I was looking for. Ford cut back My Ford Services from the three years on my 2013. I used the free operator calls a few times. It was 50 per year on the 2013 CMAX
  13. The 2015 came with five years free for findind fuel prices, movies, sports and a bunch of other stuff. Is this seperate from sync services or will I still need to but the service to get the services aspect?
  14. Thank you! Three years is great. I will remember to update each year. Oops for the post on the test forum. Guess I was a bit tired when I posted! :)
  15. 2015 CMAX SEL. anyone know how long free sync services?
  16. Since the car was built in September 2015 it couldnt have been on the lot long enough for the hatch, gasquet and door to show wear from opening and closing by perspective buyers. I wonder if it might have sustained damage in transport. Seems the hatch must really be out of alignment for the paint to be worn down. If you soke to the same regional Foed rep I spoke with about a rear main seal problem you are right she really does not give a rip. Hope you get it sqared away. Please keep us posted. I am sorry to hear taht getting a new car turned out to be a pain when it should be fun!
  17. I turned the bass up, trebble and mid down but what really made the most desirable effect was putting the fade way up to front basically turning the little tweaters in the back down. Not the best but it did get rid of the high trebble that really sounded lousey.
  18. Hi Not just you. You can turn the bass all the way and back off the mid and trebble and it still sounds hi and abnoxiouse You can run a speaker test to make sure all speakers are working. Speaker check Turn the audio system on and set it to AM or FM mode Press and hold the eject button. Then within one second, press the "Seek up" button and hold for about 5 seconds. The diagnostics will start and do a walk-around speaker test by playing a tone in each speaker. You can cancel that and go into the main diagnostics menu. There is an option for screen calibration. I haven't done it, but I believe it prompts you to touch the screen in multiple locations to do the calibration.
  19. Jus did a four hundred mile road trip that I do quite often. Two thirds freeway at 65 last third two lane at 55. Many high mountain passes on borh. Lots of up and down hill driving. Averaged 43 on yhe 2013 and 43 with the 2015. The new cr not broken in and of cource new tires so I think it will go up ip nd up! :)
  20. The Ford dealership found no cause for the seal going out. I tried to get some help from Ford. The area service manager was of zero help. In fact rather abrupt about telling me that's the way it goes. My dealership did help giving me by some help. I found on line that they had a few 2015 models left. I called the GM and let him know what was happening. I told him what I wanted and he did just that so I now have a new 2015 SEL. I am happy with them but Fords rep is way down on my Christmas list. I really dnidnt want to keep on with the problem :)
  21. I asked for a buyback. I was told they would give me an answer Monday. We shall see but I am not going to hold my breath. There is a cause for the failures and they are just putting a bandaid on it with no idea of the cause. The tone of the email from the area service manager sounded more like oh- well :(
  22. Got my car back Friday afternoon. They say they have no idea why the rear main gasket would fail not just once but twice. Looks like I will need to get rid of the car.
  23. Meagan is a great help. Help getting a problem moved up to the regional service manager is very helpful indeed :)
  24. Thanks Meagan. My concern has been referred to the regional service manager for his help. I apparently got the pm thing all wrong.
  25. Crystal did you get my PM? Had an issue with send. Thank you Crystal. Your help is very much appreciated. I have sent you a PM with all the informatio.
