I would like to see @Ford Motor Company add these software features:
• Setting to lock the speedometer in the middle of the Instrument Cluster regardless of driving mode.
• Have a customizable "Gauges" application - Tire pressure, Battery Temperature, HVBJB Contactor Temperature, Motor Temperature, Instantaneous Energy Consumption / Regen.
• Pet Mode - Keep the HVAC system running while "shutting down" the propulsion system. Lock the doors and leave without having the "double honk" attract everyone's attention.

2014 Chevy Volt. Future Mach-E Rally owner?
Ford needs to make the MachE ride better. The ride is too choppy and bouncy! It is the only thing I dont like about the car. I bought it without a test ride back when you had to order on 6 months in advance.
I wonder if Ford made any improvements after 3 years? Magneride for sure would solve this issue, but may be over kill. Thanks for the feedback
;)!

1. Foam in sunglasses case to stop rattling noise
2. Coordinate with charging station companies to assure / mandate real time information is guaranteed in Ford Pass App. (Availability of stations, stations unavailable because of security entry restrictions, identify in dealership stations that are not accessible because they are indoors / after hours, identify new stations that are showing available but not completed / ready for use, etc...)
2. Solar Roof
3. Eliminate the power reduction experienced shortly after ownership begins
4. Eliminate clunky experience when ending a call and reconnecting to entertainment
5.Brakes that don't grind after 9K miles.

In addition, having a button on the key fob to open the frunk, to avoid having to open the driver door like a traditional trunk every time.

Also it's nice that @Ford Motor Company removed the center dial on the 2025 MY. I think the center console could be further improved by moving the hazard light button, E-brake, and "parking assist" button somewhere on the far left bottom driver side (kind of what Hyundai does on their I5) to make more utilization on that center console space. These buttons aren't used as much anyways. Lastly, I'd like to see the rear wiper moved up top under the spoiler, as it looks cleaner.

You may already know this but you can clean the brake rotors from time to time by switching to N and applying the brake. Not saying this will cure #5 for you but the rotors do tend to grime-up from lack of use.

-Figure out how to trim 200+ pounds

-ditch the stupid push button doors for some flush pull style, along with a keyhole somewhere so you can get in the car if the battery dies to pop frunk

-put some aggressive rubber and 1 inch wider wheels (doesnt help bring weight down, but...)

-better driver interface screen behind steering wheel

-change the reverse backup sound to something more modern.

Flush style door handles are more expensive, more mechanically complicated and more failure prone. They also weigh a bit more.
change the reverse backup sound to something more modern.
The vision impaired advocacy groups have been campaigning for a single industry wide sound. This particular one is preferred because everyone knows exactly what it means.

Agree on shedding some weight!
Perhaps using a style like the Tesla Model 3 and others (flush design without the complication of motors to push the handles out)?
