You can set which networks you want to be preferred! On your phone: Open Maps. Tap on your profile photo. Tap "Vehicles" Tap on the vehicle(s) you want to set settings for. From here you can add network or tap "Edit" to remove any currently listed. Also note that Maps does take availability...

I only plan to use the adapter when the options are limited. This will be exclusively when I'm traveling beyond the greater Bay Area as I charge at home. My long-distance trips are LA and soon Pacific North West. There are certainly times where the options available to me were broken and going...

More Perfect Union did a piece on BlueOval City this week. Puts to perspective the long-term positive change in the lives of folks in west Tennessee are having around it's construction.

Checking in on my 2021 Job 1. Yesterday I got two throughout the day, in order: 24-PU0121-FTDI-FX ("Battery and Remote Start Enhancements") 6.14.0 Being able to open the frunk from the touch screen is a great 3-year anniversary gift for my Mach-E. It's like a parting gift from the new vehicle...

In January I went in where the got the details out of the car to put in the order for the HVBJB parts along with checking and clearing a port recall. Weeks later Walnut Creek called when the parts arrived, which I then scheduled the real recall work. The dealer where I bought the car - not...

That would be my guess as well. Though a bright yellow car is a bold choice for a getaway vehicle. That camera damage looks like an assumption that one could be spying on the vehicle remotely or recording footage. If only Ford's technology was that sophisticated…

Reporting great work done by Ford Walnut Creek (California). After waiting for my parts to come in, I made the drop-off at 8am yesterday (Tuesday) morning. Around 5:30p the same day I got a call it would be ready the next day. They still had to do a few closing things early the next morning...

The professional circus performers I know have a rate much more than $150.

Hey fellow Bay Area! I bought my car at The Ford Store, San Leandro. After a number of situations with their service department, I now go to Walnut Creek Ford and have received impeccable service. I get my car their before 8am and I'm out by the afternoon at the latest. They even expanded their...

Correct, the communication between the phone and car doesn't allow the concept of preconditioning at this time.

I noticed in your profile that you have 2021 (likely Job 1) Mach-E. Are you aware of the CSP 22B10? Job 1 cars only came with one FOB, but this program gave a free additional FOB for the car. I don't know your situation, and this is an older program, but perhaps the car still hasn't received...

This is exactly why I wish Ford would implement the CCC Digital Key standard. On phone hardware that supports it, you can still unlock your car when the phone has powered down due to battery. For iOS, Power Reserve will still work 5 hours after loss of power. In effect, ultra-low power mode...

TSB's like these are why I wish I could download the car. No FRDS or hooking up backup battery. Just a unified download package, a USB stick or external hard drive of decent quality, and a properly working Level 2 charger hooked up to the car. No guess work or incorrect order of operations...

Each use case their own, and this is going to be Apple centric as that's why I use. I find the Apple Watch complication to be the key feature. I can start the car from my watch. Wish it was an accessible watchOS app and allow for the use of double tap to start the car, but it's super handy...

Yesterday I took my car in to Ford Wallnut Creek (California) and start the recall path for HVBJB (23S56). Was told they needed to look at it before they could do anything. As I still had the cord stuck (23B50) recall as active, and an unrelated issue with my fender side marker light...
