3 ideas: 1Kw is close to what you get with 120v, maybe a breaker flipped. Reboot Sync system, have to do this about every 3 months to cure some weird behavior of the car. My sister had her 2023 in the shop for a month while they tried to figure out why it wouldn’t level 2 charge anywhere...

And the Premium version of the car beats a GT in the quarter mile?. Costco sold me CC2 in 245/45/19 for my Premium. They handle great, are confident in heavy snow, improve the ride, but at the expense of range.

Outside temperature will change the % charge even though the actual charge in the battery doesn’t change. Although in the morning it should be colder and should read a higher % charge. I wish Ford would report the actual kWhr charge. You can get this through the OBD reader and car scanner app.

The Fordpass app will show you which chargers you can use, I think the navigation will show them too. You need to select the correct filter settings. Many around me area off limits because they are too busy.

I used the EA membership in June for a long road trip. I had to open the EA app and initiate the charge with the specific charger I was going to use. Then plug in. The charger screen would then acknowledge me by name and give me the pass+ price

Make sure tires are pumped up to 40 or 41.

Car scanner will tell you 12v battery health, and a lot more. Search the forum. After 3 years and 4 months mine is still good.

EA chargers will supply up to 160kW/hr, while most ChargePoint only supply 60kW/hr. This can stress the HVJB. Glad I got mine replaced months ago.

4 rock chips in 6 months. I 80 construction through CA is brutal on the windshield. They sounded loud.

The snow traction of the OEM tires on my 21 premium AWD was scary last winter when we got 800” of snow. I bought a set of CC2 at 30K miles even though they weren’t worn in out. The snow performance was amazing, handling, and ride were all improved. Since this was Jan of 2023 the CC2 with XL...

Here in Truckee CA on I80 the Ford Pass app shows 1 of the 3 Tesla charging stations. It is the newer one which has over half the installed capacity. I would say we now have more charging stations Than gas pumps. Found some medium speed Chargepoint stations I didn’t know existed since I just...

Love that Colorado powder

New Tesla stations are reconfigured to accommodate Mach-e

All weather tires are not that good in snow and ice. There is another grade of tires called All Conditions with a mountain snd snowflake symbol. These can be used year-round as opposed to Winter tires which must be removed for the summer. Michelin X-Climate and Goodyear weather ready are 2...

My old Rav4 did not come with heated seats. Dealer got a shop to add them to the front for $800 in 2016 in Reno NV.
