  1. I just changed out the winter tires on my 2013 MKZh and 5 lug nuts were replaced. Luckily I had 20 spares from when I bought the snow tires from Tire Rack. When I had this problem on my 2010 I bought 20 from Pepboys for $35.00. You'd have thought Ford would have fixed this years ago. BTW dealer full price for 20 is $186.00.

     

    The tech that worked on my car said Ford now supplies the dealers with a special socket that works really well.

  2. Contact a junkyard that does part locating. They can find one from another junkyard and have it shipped to them. BTW your 2014 mirror was used for a number of years. I know a 2013 will fit yours. You may even find the color you want.

     

    In 2013 I bought a complete spare tire and kit from a wrecked 2013 gas model for my FFH that came with the canister. The wrecked car was in Florida.

     

    Just looked on ebay. There's a lot of them various colors and prices.

  3. The cars come from the factory with tie down anchors points (for lack of a better term. They are on all four corners of the car and the dealer is supposed to remove them at delivery. I've had two Fords where the dealer forgot to remove them and I just left them on. These are closed loop anchors that would work. My '99 Taurus had them and came in handy when I buried it in the snow, Tow driver just used one to pull it out of the snow.

     

    I would think a dealer would be able to help you out. The anchors are used to tie the cars down during transport. Hope this helps.

  4. No the car was still under warranty. I've bought several cars from this dealer they turned on the DRLs on my '13 FFH and my '13 MKZh for free. I've heard of other dealers charging $50 to do it. Depends on what kind of relationship you have with them.

  5. I have Geico on my 2013 MKZh and it started out at $426. a year for 10,000 miles. Full coverage with 100 ded. on comprehensive and 500 on collision. I just got my new policy and it's now $525. I'm happy. Last year I looked at many different companies and there prices were double and triple of was Geico was.
