January 1st may bring some surprises. That local dealership may not be able to perform this future recall if they are not EV Certified. Do we have a state by state list of Ford EV Certifed dealers? Or. Is Ford's pause on EV production/investment making this list meaningless?

Ford scaled back on EV investments, but are still making and will continue to make EVs. Not making EVs is the kiss of death to an automaker. The list is certainly not meaningless.

Not sure if this will work for you or others but I copied this link from my search for an ev-certified dealership local to me. Assuming the link works like it did for me, put your zip code or location info in, then click "advanced search," filter on "EV Certified," and you're all set.

Thanks for the link. It did not give me a list. Just one dealer, probably the closest. I put in 300 mile range. I would like to see a list.

Select "Advanced Search" and then "EV Certified".
I did. After reading your post, I put in a different zip code, advanced search and ev certified, within the 300 miles. It gave me a dealer in that zip code. The only Ford dealer in that zip code and I am sure is not ev certified. Maybe it is my tablet.

I think the link just gives the closest Ford dealer to that zip code. If anyone gets more than one dealer listed, please let me know.

The list of Model e certified dealers after Jan 1st has not been released yet. Your best bet is to ask your dealer if they will be Model e next year or not.

I think the previous EV certified dealers can still do warranty work if they have their EV tech, but they may choose not to.

FYI “EV certified” is ending this year, the new dealer classification is “Model e Certified” starting next year if you didn’t know. Not all dealers are continuing with EVs.

Ford's website needs to reflect such change. Wonder if additional dealers have pulled out of Ford's deal to sell electric vehicles with the slump in sales. Can't say I have seen dcfc installations going in at the dealerships. Not showing up on Plugshare.

Using the link, it brings up a list of dealers within the mileage you specify, and you can click View More Dealers at the bottom. There's never going to be a "here's all Ford Model e dealers in the US" list.

Ford's website is where you're finding the list, so what is it you're asking for? Model e isn't yet in effect, so the website should not show anything today.

You really expect, that after committing to spend over $1 million, and signing contracts, that a slump in sales means dealers are going to pull out? People who make those decisions invest for the long term, not for October.

DCFC installations take a long time. They are in process. When they're done, you'll see them show up in FordPass.

The chargers got delayed until June. So can’t go by that.

Hopefully we get an updated website in late December, but they’re still working on getting the dealers certified.

But more importantly, is to know if the dealer has had experience replacing HVBJB. This is a case where you really don't want to be first.

With all the failures I can’t believe there is an EV certified dealer that has not changed one! Even here in Fairbanks they have swapped a few. Even did a whole battery change-out!

You've would think so, but there are so many reports here of people complaining that their dealers are clueless on the process.

I get more than one….3 within 75 miles. If I turn off “EV Certified”, I get 2 more within the same radius.
