[worachj]

Did you get an email?

Yes, I got the adapter replacement notification email. My order number was #2221 and I received it in June.

What's up with this? Is this being sent to specific people or if this a blanket problem? Anyone in the know???

Here's my serials, both arrived within a week of each other and both of the inside labels say 6 June 2024.

But Ford have sent me only one email about one adapter. I don't know which one of these they're referring to:

Interesting that they were built 3 days apart. Julian date 148 and 151. Males it a Monday and Thursday.

I don't know if this has been discussed or not. But I got an adapter second hand. I believe it's part of the recalled batch. Anyone have any ideas or how to get it switched out?

This one is one before Mike G's low one. The second of the day.

So, let me see if I got this right: Those of us still waiting our NACS adapter (first promised to be delivered last June, then September, now November) will be delayed even more because Ford has asked Tesla to replace those already acquired by Ford from Tesla to give to Mach-e owners...Meanwhile, Ford threatens those using functional adapters from other manufacturers that your warranty will be voided if you use the working one, even tho Ford-provided overheats and may fry your charge port? Now I am starting to get skeptical.

Ford did not say that. A dealer did. Cooperate knows better.

I did not receive a letter or email from Ford about my adapter. I'm not convinced mine isn't defective though.

Maybe mine was assembled when a competent shift was working ?.

What's your order number? Why would you think it was bad if it was assembled by a competent crew? Any problems with it?

Then count yourself fortunate to not have to send yours back....

I was being facetious about mine being bad. Hence the wry smile emoji.

I should have elaborated. I meant perhaps I didn't receive a letter because my adapter was part of a batch manufactured by a competent shift. But who wants to type all that first thing in the morning.

I hefted my nephew's adapter, which came to him as he's a Rivian owner. It was solid and had much more weight than I expected.

I have a Ford adapter and a Rivian adapter, they are exactly the same, and have the same part number.

I also received it. Interestingly, they also request the return of the original as part of the exchange. There must be some nasty risks with with using it.

I expect that the market will be infected by used recalled adapters. Is there or will there be any way to tell them from the replacement adapters?
I didn't get the adapter yet from Ford but have been disappointed with their schedule slippages. When i was working at Ford as a design engineer a schedule slippage couldn't be more that the time to the original time projected original time projected. So if you had projected it was in one months and then reported two months people would be ok with that. But if you had said one month from now and came back with 6 months prediction later it was grounds for termination.
