Dynamic Drive Malfunction
 

Hello,

First time post. Recently purchased 2007 4.8i CPO, 20K miles. Have enjoyed the truck so far; however, one nagging thing that has happened on four separate occasions is a "Dynamic Drive failure." This warning usually comes on after I drive over a pothole with my driver's side front tire. After shutting off the car and restarting, the code disappears. I have taken the car to the dealer on two separate occasions. In the first visit they did some reprogramming, then in the most recent visit they replaced a defective relay and power distribution box. I thought the problem was solved, but yesterday after driving over a large pothole the warning came on again.

I have searched this forum and there are some threads that address this issue; however, I didn't detect any consensus on the cause or any fix(es) that have worked. Any ideas? Anyone with a similar story?

Thanks!

4K miles on mine so far and no issues whatsoever. It is the 1st time I hear about this issue. I would take it back to dealer and ask them to take another look. :popcorn:

See my post half way down. No problems since satellites and shocks were replaced.

Denalio,

Thanks for the reply. I did read your thread. Was your issue with Dynamic Drive or the Dynamic Stability Control? As far as I can tell, the two are not the same.
