Personally I have no
Issues with most of these gripes. I am
6’ 3 and visibility of the instrument panel behind the steering wheel has been an issue for me in every car I have owned for
The last 25 years. The Mach E is the least offensive. Garage door opened works for me 4 houses away. It’s...
My house key is on the FOB as well so I tend to have mine with me. Carwas? I use mine here as At the better car washes here (Russel speeders “hand” wash ) and a more deluxe standard auto wash the attendant has to drive the car onto thee belts and/or track. So
I use walk away locking ...
I find the system nicely balanced but I am not a fan of current day music with a super heavy bass. Give me Jack Cassidy , Geddy Lee, or Jack Bruce. The Mach E sound system sounds great with these guys
I haven’t had the charge port issue but every time I use an auto car wash I find bits of the brush stuck in trim pieces. I also noticed some windshield scratching. I think I will use the old fashion hand one or touchless spray for quick washes or Russel Speeder’s expensive but worth it “hand...
Didn’t apply to the Mach E anyway. I bought my car because I liked it and like it even more after I bought it. Credits etc obviously didn’t influence my purchase . I will never buy another ICE car again. This car is too much fun. I might buy a PHEV when I replace My old ICE Escape
I really haven’t noticed. I guess there is a delay. Certainly when you start the car there is time for apps to load but by the time my cars is out of the garage (2 car lengths) all is loaded and running. I rarely listen to broadcast radio so I can not speaks to HD etc. SiriusXM on the car...
I you go into the HVac screen. ( icon lower center right of the HVAC control screen you get a screen with more HVAC options. Hit the Systme off button upper left and it will star off even between starts
Last I read in the owners manual

It all depends on how long you have. You are covering a lot of territory. I have lived in New England most of life ( Canada before that) . I could easily give you a months of places to visit in Maine, but staying near the coast is best for new visitors . Portland ME offers and bustling...
My 2024 Premium has a metal roof. And it is the they found in the color I wanted which was in January. I like glass roofs but ones that open. In the days when you don’t need the AC and you zooming about town out on the highway it’s a great way to get some air without the buffeting wind through...
Certainly not competition to the Mach E but might be serviceable short range vehicle. I can only imagine the range hit when it’s 10 degrees F outside. 50 miles perhaps? At first looks my 6’ 3 frame might be a little cramped.
80% ( which is what I usually charge to ) gives me 230 miles in 65 degree weather . Obviously much less than in the New England Winter cold. (Like 180 miles with preconditioning ) . Most of my driving is local 45 mph speed limits tops
Problem solved for
Me. One I rarely charge to 100% and my wife hasn’t quite got into the one pedal groove so her profile has that turned off. So the actually brakes get used more
Even though regen is used when you use the break pedal the actual brakes
Get more use. Keeps the corrosion build up...
The only thing in my frunk is some mouse repellent sachets to keep the damn mice out of the wiring.(they ate the engine wiring harness of my Mini Cooper $$$$). It’s smaller than the prior models because Ford gave you more energy efficient heat pump heater for the cold weather rather than the...
I would head to your Ford dealer. There isn’t anything you can to push updates. If your car is parked in proximity to your home WiFi make sure you connect it and make sure auto updates are turned on. If your home network allows automatic updates make sure you schedule that at different time...
If you leave a window open the inside motion detectors will go off if you walk close the car without your key fob or PaKkey setup and FordPass running. Turn the motion detectors of when shutting down the car. That problem is easy to solve. Mouse issue however. I had mice eat the engine...
Life is never good in nasty snowy salty winter weather. Geez I with no fondness remember driving 60’s rear wheel drive vehicles in the winter. Even with snow tires it was a challenge.
