I got my cup holders checked in August during servicing and now they seem off. I remember them lighting up before. Does anyone else have this issue?
My 22 doesn’t have them.

Thanks for the info! I’m not sure if the 2024 is different, but I can’t find anything about it online.

They made some changes over the years. For 2022, they removed some features from the previous models. I think some trims of the Fusion had lit cup holders.

Interesting to hear! They’re removing a lot from the 2025 models too.

For 2020, they had laminated front side windows, but those were removed for 2021. They also took out fancy climate control dials for 2022 and some other features. I waited a long time for my escape order and they took away a lot of things. My dad has an F150 Lariat, and he experienced similar removals. He had a nice dial in 2021, but it was gone in 2022. Meanwhile, the cheaper Ecosport still has those dials, which is confusing. My escape cost over 40k and the F150 was around 50k.

I have a 2022 SEL and it doesn’t have any ambient light.
I have a '23 model and there are no lights in the cupholder. I think you can control some ambient lighting through the touch screen.
My 21 ST X has ambient lighting in the cup holders.
My 2024 with the Premium Package doesn’t have them either. There’s hardly any ambient lighting in my 23 Lightning Lariat ER. It’s like shrinkflation.

Both my 2017 and 2020 F150s had lights in the cup holders. They seemed to produce a fair amount of heat. Maybe that’s why Ford is removing them.
My U.K. 2021 model has ambient lighting.
Can anyone change the color of their interior ambient lighting? That feature was really cool in my old Focus.

Unfortunately, you can’t do that in the 2024s. It was a nice feature when it was available in other models.
