I always wanted an EV. I wanted the power without the noise. It was alluring. So, when Tesla announced the Model 3 for $35,000 in 2016. I immediately put down $1,000 deposit on the car. A year later it was clear that the Model 3 would cost about $51,000, not $35,000. I felt somewhat...

I may be in the position to sell my 5 year old 2021 Mach E premium. I have some questions. 1. I have Hands Free Blue Cruise paid through 12/31/2026. Is this transferable to the new buyer? 2. What things do I need to delete? Clearly I need to remove PAAK. How is that done? I also expect...

I am a loyal PAAK user. I've been using PAAK exclusively since I got my car in April of 2021. Worked like a champ. Until last December. Ford pushed an update that screwed up PAAK. So, I started carrying the keyfob. After a couple of months later I tried PAAK again to see if they'd fixed it...

This was my 4th Mustang. Bought it new and had it for 9 year. Was a nice car but, in reflection, I can say with certainty that driving a lot on the freeway with the top down definitely damages hearing.

Hey, I've been a PAAK user for 4.5 years on my Mach E and love it. My keyfob sits in the drawer. I have also set up my personal door entry code and the password to start the car when PAAK doesn't work for some reason. I've only had to use the backup password a few times but only because I...

Background: I've owned my Mach E since April of 2021 (50 months) and am using the original 12v battery. I got a replacement 12v battery earlier this year for free using my Ford points. It's just sitting on a shelf in the garage. I've watched videos on how to replace it, I especially like the...

I remember when I first got my Mach E in April of 2021 one of the persistent topics on this forum was anxiety on how long the batteries would last. We were given warnings by members of this forum not to charge over 80% regularly and certainly don't charge to 100% regularly. The posters were...

You know the drill. You go on the FordPass app or Electrify America and look for a charging station near you. On a Saturday afternoon they might say 0 of 4 available or 0 of 6. Then there's the awkward queuing process in a big box store parking lot trying to figure out where the line is and...

I've had my car for 4 years and suddenly I find myself going on a trip where I will need to use a Tesla destination charger. This may be the one and only time I'll ever need this so I don't want to spend a lot of money. I found this one on Amazon for $40. Do you think it'll do the job? Or do...

I hear dire warnings about charging to 100%. They say the batteries will lose range if that's done. I'm not sure it's the real story. Why do I say that? In the nearly 4 years I've owned my MME I've charged it to 100% at least once per week, sometimes more often. Over 200 times in total...

I've owned my MME since April of 2021. I've had very little issues with it. I've noticed over the last few weeks the Instrument Panel is very sluggish. Two examples: 1. When I turn on the turn signal the clicking sound works as normal but the turn arrow on the IP stays on for about 5 seconds...

So, I've been driving Blue Cruise 1.X on my MME for exactly a year on my job 1 car. Last week 1.3 was installed and I was told that everything I had was folded into 1.3 and it was better. Well, yes and no. I can say that lane change seems to be a little quicker to react in 1.3. But I can...

In the 3.5 years I've owned the MME this is the weirdest thing that has ever happened. I drove to the UPS store and parked in the lot. While walking to the store I looked back at the car. I don't know why I decide to look back but I did. What i saw was that the driver's door had popped open...

Unfortunately, what Ford calls Blue Cruise includes Intelligent Cruise Control (free for all) which includes lane centering. Blue Cruise also includes Hands Free driving which is the paid portion of Blue Cruise. I'm trying to understand which of those two categories lane changing falls into...

Background: My car is a 2021 Job 1. It's 3.5 years old with 29k miles. I've owned many cars and 3+ years is about when the 12v battery should be changed. I hear that the same holds true for the Mach E. So, with that in mind I bought a new 12v battery from Ford Parts using my loyalty...

Is Ford saying that ALL of the adapters are bad, or just some?

Background: I've been using Ford Pass and PAAK for 3.5 years. About a month ago I needed to reinstall FordPass and remove and reset PAAK. Once done my charging location (my home) was gone from FP. It was still in the car but not in FP. I waited a couple of charge cycles and it still...

Ok, so I successfully tested my NACS adapter at a Tesla supercharging station. However, at the front of each charging stall is a sign that says "Tesla Vehicles Only". So, I'm wondering what happens if while I'm charging there a person from a Tesla approaches me and points to the sign and tells...

Background: I've had my Mach E for 3.5 years. I've always had my home as a target charge location, in fact it is the only target charge location. I recently had to delete and re-install Ford Pass to get PAAK to work properly. Issue: I can no longer see any target charge locations on my...

I've had BC 1.4 and OS version 7.0.2 since last December but wasn't permitted to talk about it. I haven't received a notice that the non-disclosure is lifted but since Ford announced it elsewhere in this forum I suppose it's OK to talk about it. In fact I've never received any notice from Ford...
