Hi - I upgraded from Territory (an SY RWD petrol "Limited Edition") to Everest towards the end of 2017. Despite some initial misinformation from the dealer (who claimed that you could create a WiFi hotspot in the car), I've been very happy with the upgrade.
My annoyance with my model is the TPMS. It tells me "a tyre has deflated" or "there is a sensor malfunction" without telling me which one. And supposedly my model doesn't have the dash screen to actually show tyre pressure per wheel. So it's a bit useless. I spoke to a Ford dealer and Ford Australia and they told me that it can't be disabled completely, and if I replace tyres with normal valve stems then I'll have to put up with the orange warning light being on permanently and chimes every time I start the car. And there's no way to update the software to provide the screen on the dash
So I came across this site and was hoping that someone could tell me whether this is true, or if I can somehow disable it since it's not very informative.
