Default My oil change monitor doesn't work

Something weird here. My oil change monitor doesn't work. It hasn't worked in about 40k miles or so. Everything else seems to be OK. But, it always shows that I have 100 percent oil life left. I'm glad I keep track of the miles between changes and not rely on that silly thing. Anyone else seen this?

If i HAD an oil change monitor in my Stang, I'd be glad that it didn't work. I have one on my SUV and it's a frickin' pain in the neck since 1) I don't follow Ford's oil change frequencies and 2) I use full synthetic which doesn't suit their frequencies.

Now if I could also get the TPMS to not work, too...

My oil life monitor has failed also - worked at first...idiot service manager at Ford said I was just driving conservatively....right...it should not show 100% and definitely not at 1500 miles over the recommended change
