  2. Recalls 25C69 and 25C71 - time sensitive?

    FYI: we just left the dealer, and both of these recalls were applied. The park one was just made available to the dealers, I guess
  3. Disable touchscreen while driving?

    Thanks! I was going to post a picture of my pup in our Mach-E, but we've already veered off topic šŸ˜€ So, here's a link to a blog (Tails from the NOC: guide dogs visit community police officers - Ottawa Police Service); Juno (my pup) and I visited a community police center as part of a group of...
  4. Disable touchscreen while driving?

    Thanks, @macchiaz-o; comments like yours are why I do this! As you said, these puppies are being prepared for a specific role in life, and thus GDC has crafted many rules & procedures for the puppy raisers in support of that goal. I've owned many dogs, and this is the first time I've raised one...
  5. Disable touchscreen while driving?

    The calm screen might help if I’m not navigating somewhere; I’ll give that a try. It might minimize things like heat suddenly being set to max on me šŸ˜€
  6. Disable touchscreen while driving?

    She needs to be on the floor; the guide dog organization’s rules, not mine
  7. Liftgate Opens - $7K damage

    I’m not sure how they both popped open on me then; I must have jabbed both buttons on the fob somehow <shrug>
  8. Disable touchscreen while driving?

    I haven’t been able to find anything on this, so I suspect I know what the answer is, but just in case… is there any way to disable the touchscreen temporarily while you’re driving? My scenario is this: I’m fostering a guide dog puppy (raising her until she’s about 2 years old) and one of the...
  9. Liftgate Opens - $7K damage

    When I arrived at a destination last week, I parked and shut the car off - then the liftgate opened and the frunk unlatched before I stepped out of the vehicle. At the time, I was wondering if I'd inadvertantly tapped the key fob in my pocket somehow before I got out of the seat - but after...
  10. Recalls 25C69 and 25C71 - time sensitive?

    Thanks. There's no mobile service around here that I'm aware of, but there is a closer Ford dealer than the one we bought from that now has EV-certified service people. The dealer we bought it from is one of the highest-volume Mach-E dealers in Ontario, which is why we went there; at the time...
  11. Recalls 25C69 and 25C71 - time sensitive?

    Thanks, folks. it will probably be around mid-summer by the time we hit the 16k km mark, so it sounds like I get this done now rather than waiting all that time. The dealer we bought it from is ~1 hour away, so I was looking for an excuse to keep the trips to there to a minimum :)
  12. Recalls 25C69 and 25C71 - time sensitive?

    Greetings, I was in the Ford app to look at the maintenance schedule for our new Mach-E (2025 Premium EAWD, 8500 km on the odometer), and saw the above 2 active recalls. The 1st scheduled maintenance is not until 16000 km (we're currently at 8500 km), so i'm wondering if we should bring it in...
  13. Back hatch lower edge gets covered in snow

    2025 Premium EAWD... I've noticed when it's snowing and the road hasn't been cleared, the lower edge of the back hatch (where the "close" button is) gets covered in snow - because it's outside the seal on the frame, I'm assuming. The back license plate even gets completely snow covered, but I'm...
  14. In extreme cold, when plugged in does Mach-E warm the battery occasionally?

    I just found this, that answers my question :facepalm: Mach-Lee's Cold Weather Charging Strategies | MachEforum - Ford Mustang Mach-E News, Owners, Discussions, Community
  15. In extreme cold, when plugged in does Mach-E warm the battery occasionally?

    It's around noon, and it's warmed up to -24C 🄶 I got back from a (brief) walk with the dog, and heard the car in the garage humming; like it was prepping for a departure - but there's no departures programmed for several days. Just wondering if, when plugged in, in very cold temps it will warmup...
