Back seat gets no AC. Normal?

[rbraptor]

My 2020 has been great. My biggest complaint is the heat/AC for the back seat. I live in Texas and feel like my daughters and dogs in the back are going to die without more air. Is mine broken or is this normal? If normal, is there a fix? It’s hot as balls and I have ceramic tint everywhere. Thanks.

I would say “normal” as mine also gets little air flow from the rear vents. I always leave my climate control in auto, that may have something to do with it

Same here. We close the two front vents on either side n direct the two middle ones straight to the back.

Seems like a major oversight by Ford for this to be “normal.” Whether someone buys an F150 for work or to haul their family, the backseat will be used and needs AC.

Never noticed this with my current or previous F-150 (2018 and 2019) even during summer driving through Palm Springs with the in-laws. Is it a lack of airflow or a temperature issue?

I assume OP and I have the same concern, and that would be airflow. No matter what vent configuration/isolation I use, the rear vents put out adequately cold, but very low velocity air.

This. Yea, it’s hot as hell but the low velocity air is the issue.

Normal .. same on my 2020 GEN2

My 2018 is the same. The air is cold, but almost no flow.

I found the best solution to get max airflow from and to the rear is to set the AC to max air (7), TURN OFF the air flow to the feet and only have the airflow to the face. You can always focus the center air vents in the front seat to the middle so that it pushes air to the rear quicker. As for the rear center vents, I noticed recently if you have them adjusted all the way to the left or right, the air does not flow well at all.
