    Issues getting HVBJB recall done

    Recently tried to get recall done. New part is on backorder - no date given to me by dealer. They said that if the HVBJB goes bad, there are re-manufactured parts available to keep it running, but that the recall requires new parts only and they are not available right now.

    EV sales rise in California, bucking claims of dwindling demand

    Steve, I agree with your points and am in the same situation (except SCE). While CA fuel prices are high, so are electricity rates, so I'm not sure the savings comparison to the rest of the country is really the difference. More likely, since CA was an earlier adopter on plug in cars, they are...

    Grapevine or the 101 ?

    I much prefer the 101 (I'm in Ventura County, so the 5 is not the best choice) and am usually going to the Santa Cruz area. Better scenery (pretty low bar to be prettier than the 5) and decent DC Fast charging choices!

    What ceramic coating do you use?

    I used Ethos Graphene (little bottle - prepared and applied myself) over 2 years ago and still going strong. I use their Resist spray about every 6 months (takes about 15 minutes to apply). Looks shiny like new and still beads like crazy.

    [PSA] - PaaK and Pixel 7 / Pro

    PAAK worked great for me until I just changed phones from a Samsung S20FE to a Google Pixel 7. PAAK worked for a day or so and then died. Deleted the phone's PAAK and tried to re-load. Can't get it to reload at all . . . .

    SoCal dealers for service - looking for recommendations

    I've had good luck at Vista Ford in Woodland Hills. Make an appt far in advance though, as they do get booked up. Roof recall and a couple of maintenance trips. Throw in you are coming from Galpin might help as they are in competition all the time.

    A rear Pony Emblem that lights up when you brake. Plug & Play on Mach-E!

    That's the way it should be . . . can't be white while driving. If you can do it that way, terrific!
