So my thoughts on your issues:
Screen Buzz: IF this is an actual defect, Ford will fix it in the future so no issues. IF Ford doesn't deem it an issue then more than likely it's something that you'll acclimate to over time. Personally, I don't think this is a big deal.
Wind Noise: You already...

So far it's been a very good job. One of the mirrors did peel a little at the seam, but they're going to fix it when I can get in next week.
Full front, so: full hood, fenders, rear view mirrors, all in Xpel 8. Full front bumper in Xpel 10. Cost $2300.
I decided against a pillars because it...
Thank you!! I thought I was going crazy!
This was the only "issue" I had with my PPF install. Otherwise you can't tell there is even anything on the car!!
So, I had full front PPF applied, which included the side mirrors. Obviously they couldn't cover the whole thing, so there is a seam, but when the mirror is extended it's in the back and you don't see it.
In the attached pic, the line on the right is the PPF seam. My question to everyone is...
I have never been a car person. I bought my MME and love it. I thought because it was an EV there was less opportunity for mods and upgrades (which again I've never cared about). And when I saw this thread I didn't think I would care about changing the wheels/tires as I really liked the stock...
That's great! I'm glad they reached out to you directly! I hope they can get some resolution for your issue!
Side note:
I'm sure Ford has its reasons, but I just wish they were a little more transparent in letting us know that they were reading these forums and looking into our issues!

I just attended an IIHS/HLDI webinar on Insurance and Repair Issues related to EVs. Matt Moore from IIHS/HLDI stated explicitly that they are not ready to share the Mach E results yet. But he showed a few of the crash test videos for the Mach E specifically, and he said overall it "performed...
Just as a followup: I contacted my dealer again and they both canceled the order online and refunded my $500. I wouldn't have cared if they left the order live as long as they refunded me. But in my case they did both.
I guess we could try this for science, but I'm fairly certain it wouldn't charge. It doesn't seem to be anything with just the car. It's some interaction between the car and the electric supply.
I...I don't think that's true. But, I'm not a licensed electrician so I'm not going to argue.
And I agree, it's not the cause of this charging issue anyway as mine works fine as is. So yes, let's move on.
Just to confirm this is exactly how mine is set up: there is no special connection between the conduit and neutral bus.
I was just trying to say in my post that the conduit is bonded to neutral at the panel, but like you said just by virtue of being in contact.
I don't believe I short changed my install at all.
I'm assuming you live in a state that doesn't require electrical to be installed in conduit. In IL, all electrical is required to be in conduit which serves as the ground. Mine is in 3/4" EMT from panel to outlet.
Other IL folk, am I wrong...
Similar situation: Premium ordered online but bought an FE off the lot. My dealer is supposed to be canceling my order (it had not hit production yet) and refund me the $500 but they have not done it yet. I'm a little irritated as I have called and emailed multiple times.
At least this thread...
So I'm in the IL NW Suburbs as well, 50a 240v 14-50 outlet installed in garage, ComEd customer, no solar, no whole house generator, and also haven't had any issues charging at home (knock on wood). I also don't think I have a smart meter (but to be honest I'm not sure).
One note: I installed...
That is an AMAZING deal!
I paid almost the same just for the Xpel front (no pillars) and 10 only on the bumper.
Gtechniq is a great ceramic too to get it free
