I've noticed the vast majority of the time when I'm puttering along in slow traffic in the left lane and am passed on the right by a lane-splitting motorcycle that the adaptive cruise control immediately locks onto the motorcycle as it passes me. The car then aggressively speeds up to follow...
I had the rear right felt underbody cover tear half loose after being hit with some road debris. It's marked with LJ9B-11778-A. That brings up no results except leading me to LJ9Z-9911778-A, which is listed as a front deflector everywhere. Can anyone confirm these are the same thing...
Is this well known? This summer I've L1 charged up using the Ford charger about 50-60% SOC for four times at a family member's house. Normally I L2 charge at home, with some occasional DCFC tossed in. I've noticed after L1 charging to ~90% SOC over a couple days that once I start driving the...
I just had an OEM windshield replacement on my 2022 CR1. It seems like the real deal as it has the Ford logo, heating wires for the camera & wiper parking, SoundScreen logo, and the IRR logo. However, I noticed when reinstalling the Velcro for my toll tag there's no obvious cutout for the...
I have the preferred charge time at my house set to midnight-3 PM. The only control is through the car settings; the EVSE is set to 24/7. Yesterday I plugged in about noon, it started charging, and then at exactly 2 PM it stopped charging prior to reaching the SOC setpoint. The car clock is...
I tried a couple searches and didn't find anything. If you have the map light on when turning off the car there is no (reasonable) way to turn it off. To replicate:
Park
Turn on a map light
Turn off the car
All the interior lights come on and pressing the button for the map light does...
Car is about a year old and ever since new I've had problems with the aero covers popping out away from the wheel, and some of the foam dampening pieces coming out. Is this normal? I haven't been able to find other similar complaints. Any thoughts on how to best fix this? I need to do a tire...
The Select/CR1 non-perforated seats are quite warm in the summer, resulting in swamp ass and a moist back. Are there seat covers that make a significant improvement to this? I'm not familiar enough with covers on solid seat material to know if the neoprene or whatever they're typically made...
I need to buy a tool so I can set the proper tire locations after doing a rotation on my 2022. Which of these will work?

I've heard bad things about the Modern Spare jack and basically all of the other chinese scissor jacks, so I'm investigating alternative options. The Tesla forum loves the used aluminum Porsche jacks (https://www.ebay.com/itm/134160597691 for example). However, they only have a 2200 lb weight...
I learned today that a new co-worker was previously the reliability engineer for contactors on a well known EV, so I picked his brain. Most of what people have been discussing here is correct but there are definitely some misconceptions.
Background:
Despite what suppliers say, contactors...
What a great railroad! I wonder how the STB will handle this; they're already displeased with the state of freight movement. Hopefully Ford is a big enough customer they are exempted...
In the past couple months I haven't been behind very many MMEs for long periods of time on the freeway, but two of them had had the brake lights going off like strobe lights. This is presumably from 1PD. One was completely ridiculous, and one was just quite annoying. Yet I'm not sure I've...
My 2009 RAV4 will fit 10 ft lengths from the rear left to the front right with the back seat down and the passenger seat reclined. Very useful for picking up PVC pipe and conduit without needing to spend time securing an external load. Will 10 ft lengths fit similarly in a Mach-E? It would be...
Hello, has any more concrete information come out via press releases / PR events to help clarify the conflicting/old info on ford.com? I'm trying to decide on a trim level for an ER AWD model. Here's what I'm finding:
