  1. Read all the tire posts and still a bit confused

    I have an MME Premium EX4. 33,000 miles on it and today one of the tires sustained too much damage to plug. I've decided to replace all four tires. I get that there is a trade off between performance and efficiency but I would like to keep the same qualities regarding performance, noise, and...
  2. Weird Safety Recall package came yesterday

    Yesterday I got a UPS package from Ford that contained the attached letter. I came with a replacement for the mobile phone charging pad, 30,000 Ford Pass Rewards points, and a gift card. I googled the recall number and it seems to be related to the battery but I am wondering why the heck are...
  3. What are your "wish list" features for the perfect EV nav app?

    I've yet to find the perfect app to plan a long trip in an EV. Most seem too limited in the ability of the driver to choose options along the route or to change options easily while driving. I haven't done a lot of long trips so I'm sure others will have better suggestions. I'll start. Some of...
  4. Anyone paying for the for the built in connected Nav?

    I've had the free connected navigation for the past three years but my free ride just expired. Im not completely clear on what I have lost yet. It appears I can't plan or program any trips from within the FordPass app now. I know I lose traffic and weather. Still trying to figure out if I can do...
  5. How to Escape Your Car If the Electronic Door Release Fails ???

    I saw the article below in Consumer Reports today. It lists the MachE as a car that has this emergency latch release. How to Escape Your Car If the Electronic Door Release Fails - Consumer Reports " Other vehicles—including the Audi E-Tron, Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Lexus NX...
  6. Questions about Blue Oval Network

    I have yet to do many long trips that require charging away from home. The three times I've done it I was lucky enough to have Electrify America DC fast chargers right where I needed them. We are now planning a trip 6 hours from home up in Lake Placid NY Which prompts two questions about the...
  7. Ford Pass Authorization Fee - WTF??

    I just added my new credit card to Ford Pass and immediately was charged a $1.10 "Ford Pass Authorization Fee". OK its only $1.10 but who does that??
  8. Anyone know if it safe to charge via 220v extension cord?

    We have an emergency generator because we lose power 1-2 times a year and with Sandy years ago we were out for two weeks. The problem is the generator was installed before we had an EV and the EV plug is not on the panel that is powered by the generator. I could reach a powered 220v outlet with...
  9. Blue Cruise question

    Im curious what happens when Blue Cruise is no linger free and I cancel my subscription. Do I lose adaptive cruise control also. This is not a subscription based feature on most cars. It comes standard. That could end up being a reason I sell this car if I have to start paying a monthly fee for...
  10. Anyone else notice this sound?

    I've had my MachE Premium extended range for 2 1/2 yrs but about 3 months ago I started to notice a sound I never noticed before. Whenever I press the accelerator or let up on it I hear a brief faint "knock" coming from the rear of the car. It sounds like the sound when one billiard ball hits...
  11. Privacy4Cars app. Any experience or comments about this app?

    I was just reading about this app. Apparently car companies collect more info than I realized. Of course those EULA’s that none of us read give car companies the right to sell a lot of personal data to anyone they want. No surprise to most of us I am sure. This app deletes that data. Especially...
  12. I got this message tonight. Any idea why

    We came out of a restaurant tonight and i noticed this message on my phone. Never heard the alarm go off but the car was 100 feet away outside the restaurant. There was no evidence of tampering when we got back to it. What does it mean that it detected vehicle inclination. It was on pretty flat...

    I got about 8 messages like this in my Ford pass app today. Does anyone know why? It says “Please contact a FordGuide for assistance.” But I just saw this and its too late to contact anyone
  14. Overnight charging at public chargers - Etiquette and fees?

    I've only charged at hotels/destination chargers a couple of times and never had an issue leaving the car overnight to charge but my brother was in Miami and rented an EV. Apparently the hotels there don't have their own parking so he had to park in a public lot with chargers. The issue is that...
  15. What is this symbol

    Maybe this has always been there but I never noticed it until today. There is a hand symbol next to ready on the display. It grey when the car is in reverse and green when in drive. Any idea what this is for? Thanks
  16. Does BlueCruise work at night?

    I recently got the BlueCruise update and had a chance to use it on the LIE. It worked great during the day but on the trip home at night on the same road i was able to use adaptive cruise control but BlueCruise did not come on. Are there night time limits to BlueCruise?
  17. CarPlay occasionally doesn't connect. How do you get it to connect?

    Occasionally CarPlay fails to connect for me. When this happens in the Bluetooth settings my iPhone 12 pro says the Mustang MachE device is connected as well as 09346 MachE device. I don't understand why there are two separate connections, but they are both connected. Despite this when I go to...
  18. Got the Ford Streaming update. Now what?

    Has anyone got a link to documentation for Ford Streaming? I got the update today and there is a brief description but not entirely clear on the details. Im not planning to use it if I have to pay for another subscription but it also mentions something about being able to stream using wifi. I...
  19. EV performance tracking site

    A while back i remember someone mentioning a web site that could monitor and track your EV performance but you had to give them access to your account. Does anyone remember the name of the site?
  20. First time this has happened with PAAK

    Like most people i have occasional times when PAAK does not work and I have to use the entry and start up codes to get going since I don't usually carry the key fob when close to home. Today something new happened. Despite the car unlocking and Apple Car Play recognizing the phone the car said...
