  1. 2021 Premium - seats already falling apart

    2021 model year, driven by my wife. The car has about 52k miles. Garaged and cared for well. Really disappointed the driver seat already coming apart. For reference, we have a 2018 Expedition with 105k miles and none of the seats are showing this type of premature aging. I’ve also noticed...
  2. Mach-E keeps defaulting to ENGAGE mode

    This started happening about 6 months ago after another involuntary software update. My wife always drives the vehicle in Whisper mode. Her driver profile (as well as mine) both use Whisper. However, once out of three times when the vehicle is powered on it defaults to Engage. Pressing the...
  3. Mach-E residual is TANKING!

    We've owned our 2021 Mach-E Premium AWD Ext. Battery for four years now, and 49k trouble-free miles. The MSRP was $57k+sales tax. We were lucky to take advantage of $8k in rebates (fed+state) at the time, so our net out of pocket was rougly $50k+sales tax. The vehicle has been driven almost...
  4. Liftgate beeps 3 times when opening or closing

    Dealer has had the vehicle for a week and is unable to figure out what is causing it. When opening and closing the rear liftgate the car makes 3 beeps. Curious to see if anyone here has come across this issue and found a solution.
  5. Connected Services - Expired

    After our 3-yr ownership period, the "connected services" finally expired. We've decided not to pay the subscription, as we seldom use the hands-free BlueCruise feature (lane-keeping is fine for us with the hands on the wheel). Part of the "connected services" from Ford included periodic nav...
  6. CarPlay screen showing artifacts after latest Sync update

    See below. The grey artifacts move and appear/disappear. Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this with Apple CarPlay? It started happening after latest Sync update.
  7. 5 replacement hoods from Ford - all damaged

    Our Mach-E has been sitting in a body shop for the past 6 weeks awaiting a new hood. Our vehicle was backed into by a Suburban, and the front lip of the hood was bent. Body shop had ordered a replacement hood. Apparently, Ford packages these very poorly, and each of them that arrived at the...
  8. Maps are out of date - Blue Cruise availability may be limited

    I received this message the other day. Do the BlueCruise maps get updated automatically or do I have to manually update them myself? I believe our 2021 model came with lifetime BlueCruise, before they limited it to just 3 years I believe.
  9. Extended Warranty (Ford ESP), worth it?

    We own a 2018 Expedition Platinum, and having purchased Ford ESP after the factory warranty runs out has somewhat paid for itself. Right now, the vehicle is in the shop at 86,000 miles with a big transmission issue. When I look back at the repairs done post factory warranty, the cost of the...
  10. Bridgestone Blizzak on Mach-E

    I'm running Bridgestone Blizzaks on our Expedition, and as far as winter traction in snow, they absolutely rock. I currently have Sottozero 3s on our Mach-E Premium AWD Extended Range, but these are abysmal. Sottozero 3s have zero improvement in traction, cornering, or braking in snow. Just...
  11. Frozen windshield washer nozzles - which fluid to use?

    Just curious to see what windshield fluids people here are using, especially those that live in very cold climates. Over the past two days in Colorado it's been -4F, and the windshield fluid would not work on our Mach-E. I've checked the fluid (Rain-X, good to -28F), so I was quite a bit...
  12. Power up 6.2.1 - car status not updating

    Is anyone else having issues getting updates info in the FordPass app after this update? For the past 24hrs the app is “unable to locate” my vehicle even though it’s on my garage, where it’s never had a problem locating it before this update. Battery status also hasn’t updated in over 24hrs...
  13. Rear Occupant Seat Alert

    Is there any way to turn this feature completely off? I have the Rear Occupant Seal Reminder turned OFF in the options. However, upon starting the vehicle every time, a reminder tells me that it's OFF, and asking me whether I wish to turn it ON. This is beyond annoying, and is a feature...
  14. Filling-up Mach-E with gasoline

    So the other day, just for sh*ts and giggles, I wanted to see if MME would charge on gas. I have a Ryobi gasoline generator in my garage which I seldom use. It has a 220V 30A outlet. Now unfortunately, the Ford mobile charger that comes with the MME will only work on a 50A circuit or higher...
  15. Possible to disable wireless CarPlay?

    As of last week, we started having real issues with Apple CarPlay on our Mach-E, which has worked flawlessly over the past year. This morning I've had to reboot Sync in our Mach-E three times, and reboot her phone twice, then remove and re-pair them before CarPlay finally worked. It's gotten...
  16. FordPass app - Bluetooth Connected = doesn't refresh vehicle details

    Does anyone else find this odd? My FordPass app on my iPhone 14 pro is "Bluetooth Connected". I can remotely start the car, open the windows, and do a variety of things instantly - because my phone (and thus FordPass app) is directly connected to the vehicle. Yet strangely enough, things like...
  17. FordPass: "Preparing for a drive" message?

    My FordPass is telling me my Mach-E is "preparing for a drive". Strange, as I have no departure times setup. Is this what the car does to prevent its battery from freezing up? Just curious if anyone else has come across this message without having any departure times setup.
  18. Mach-E thinks it's parked at a neighbor's house, charges to 100%

    I would say, 1 out of 10 times, when I plug-in our Mach-E to charge, it charges to 100% for some reason. Recently, I started digging into this further, and have determined that the vehicle thinks it's parked at an adjacent street, or the neighbor's house. I can only deduce this is due to GPS...
  19. Recall 22S41 - Contactor A Weld Issue. Have to bring into dealership?

    Just got this in the mail today. I was under the impression Ford fixed this weld issue with a over-the-air software update? They're now asking me to bring it in. For those of you who have done this recall at a dealer, do you know if it's a relatively simple procedure? Or are they going to...
  20. Active Grille Shutters - Frozen Shut

    This morning, Mach-E covered in heavy frost. Front of the car iced over from the night before (rain that froze later in the night). Active Grille Shutters tried to open when I started the vehicle this morning, but they didn't budge. Just wondering how well designed (and tested) this new...
