A few "glitchy" questions....

[Jarvis]

New thing started this week where the Sirius radio pauses after a few seconds immediately after I start the vehicle. So now I have to press "Resume". Anyone else? Another thing I have noticed is that when I want to see how my energy use is during an extended trip, or over the course of the week, the Acceleration/Braking/Climate Use percentages are almost always down to 0%-2% max, which just cannot be right. Anyone else? I am also having trouble with my Scheduled charges. I keep changing it on my app from "Charge while plugged in" to "Schedule Charge times" where I change it from 11PM to 7AM, yet it never works. Anyone else?

I really love this car. I ordered mine in 11/19 and got it 3/31. I am a salesperson with Ford, so the process was very easy for me, except for the wait time.

One more quick thing; I really do not like the piano black on the center console area. I did get a matte finish for the screen even before I got the car, which I am thankful I did. But the piano black just gets scratched and dusty. Has anyone found anything out there yet being made to cover it?

Same happens to me, that I have to resume. Not always, it’s some combo with it syncing with my phone I bet.

I just figured it was meant to be.

Others have pointed out that you have to set the charge times on the car screen, not on the app. I found that to be true for me as well.

Try a ceramic coating on the interior piano black to keep it from getting scratched. There's also a liquid glass ceramic coat (9H hardness) for touch screens and other similar surfaces, available at Walmart and cell phone stores etc that works great. Or System X makes interior protection to keep those surfaces from getting scratched.

And I think the Sirius XM issue has to do with phone pairing as well. If you have your phone to set to "Auto start media", it interferes with the car's radio by sending a play media from the phone request, even if you're not using the phone for media. Try turning that off in your phone's settings to see if that helps.

What is the name of the product at Walmart that will protect the screen. Does it prevent fingerprints on the screen as well?

No it does not.

They had a few options at Walmart. I ended up picking this up at the local TMobile store because they guarantee screen replacement due to scratches and cracks and the coverage amount was a lot higher. It's kept the dust down and I definitely don't see fingerprints all over the screen since putting it on.

I want to see T-Mobile replace a Sync 4A screen ?

Let's just hope that never happens. I can almost a hear them trying to weasel out of the replacement for some obscure warranty exclusion.
