Agreed with using thicker cord and a short as possible. Maybe check your EMS (if you have one) to see if there is a current (E) or previous (P) error. My AC kicked out on the weekend as there were...

Tow/Haul mode is purely transmission related (no braking involved) and isn't speed limited. Shift points are adjusted to keep the engine in the power band and 9th and 10th gears are typically locked...

The ones I got off Amazon were 70mm and seem to work well so if you’re intent on using Lee Valley, I would suggest 60mm or 80mm. I think you can find a better price, though. They’re good latches and...

Also agree with Bristol. Escape should send you a replacement (they did for us) and then install a more robust latch as it’s the door coming open while travelling that cause the hinge to break.
