Windshield Replacement and Camera Recalibration

[Dirtman]

Slightly off topic but since it was brought up... What the heck is "soundscreen"? I just noticed my windshield has that logo on it. What exactly makes it different than any other windshield?

According to Ford, Sound Screen is an acoustic layer that reduces sound. It is also supposed to be in the doors as well. I think the industry term is acoustic glazing.

Sounds more like something you'd see on an infomercial at 3am...

Safelight is coming tomorrow to change my windshield (2020 XLT 4X4).. We'll see how it goes..

Had the new windshield installed Last Thursday, everything went perfectly..

I wonder if the new windshield also comes with that ceramic coating that costs an absurd amount and only lasts a year. The dealer suckered my mom right into that nonsense...

OK. 6 weeks into this ordeal, I now have a new windshield. It only took the technician less than four miles for the truck to recalibrate itself.

Congratulations... it is truly amazing how simple tasks that never even were a blip on the radar previously... now seem to develop into a hurricane force.

Wait... it recalibrated itself? Awwwww hell no! Has no one seen maximum overdrive!?!?! This is how it all starts!!!! I'm going to the bunker, you all have fun with the sentient truck rebellion.

Actually, they plug in a module to the ECU and a satellite links to it as it "looks" at the terrain. And yes. I have seen Maximum Overdrive with Emilio Estevez. They can track us more easily now. I should have gotten a 1965 pickup.
