    Power Up 6.x Poll

    thx, mine has not gone through for a couple of days, was wondering the cause. My 12v was also around 78%, when i charge to 90% nightly with about 50 miles a day. A bit disappointing in 12v challenges 15 months and 16k in.

    Premium AWD snow/winter tires - MN

    stock/original wheels or new? I feel the swap each year using same wheels and sensors raises the cost quite a bit each year, unless of course you do it yourself.

    Premium AWD snow/winter tires - MN

    Curious what youā€™ve put on yours? Wheels and tires? I have normally bought from Discount Tire, but their site doesnā€™t show many suggestions with the MachE. Specs in my sig.

    Recent Carplay and ‘Hi Siri’ issues

    Thanks for all the advice. Figured out it was the ā€˜Allow Siri when Lockedā€™ option. Not sure if recent iOS updates turned it on or adjusted relationship with CarPlay, but enabling makes it work now.

    How long do you plan to keep your Mach-E?

    I feel the EVs may age quicker than cars in the past, with technology advances from manufacturers pushing each other. I think the pure EV companies will push the legacy manufacturers harder than theyā€™ve ever been pushed. My mache replaced a 2005 Mazda6. to the original question. I can see me...

    Recent Carplay and ‘Hi Siri’ issues

    Updated my phone to iOS 17.0.3, and car to 6.2. Even prior to this last car update, the past month Iā€™ve seemed to have lost the ability to state ā€˜Hi Siriā€™ to perform voice command in CarPlay. This command still works with my same phone in my other non-mache vehicle. Thinking this was similar to...

    Mach-E flawlessly circles Lake Michigan w/ 2 tweens & a puppy

    I like taking the route through the UP rather than through Chicago even though it takes more time. Such a scenic drive! However havenā€™t taken that route in the MachE yet. We normally stop in escanaba as our one overnight stop. Your experience with the full reliance on only a couple of chargers...

    Ford tracking device offer

    Agreed. The skeptic in me is thinking weird. The opportunist in me was a looking at the $500 they offered.

    OTA Update - Charging schedule/departure Times Gone

    Like the title says. 4.2.5 happened last night. Turned on the car (while still plugged in). Like it has in the past for some ota updates (canā€™t confirm all previous OTA updates), my car charged to 100%. No schedule or departure times set in the car. My schedule and levels at my home charger...

    AM Radio in Mach-E

    Another supporting article. Ford dropping AM in all non-commercial 2024 models. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/2023/04/01/ford-am-radio-commercial/70062845007/ Admittingly, I have used AM in a long time, mostly stream music and podcasts from my phone.

    SSM 51449 - Inaccurate Deep Sleep Notifications In FordPass

    Received my first deep sleep note this morning. Plugged in the car later than usual at home. Went into the app and saw it was less than our daily charge setting. Last update in the app was 5 hrs ago. Did the lock door to try to unfreeze it, no change. Forced close/reopen the app for the deep...

    What Do You Hate About Your Mach-E?

    I see people still complain about their ICE., and many have been building them for 90+ years. For many of these EVs and manufacturers, itā€™s a first gen build. Iā€™ve recognized we are the beta testers for this new tech. some of these issues seem so easy to fix thoughā€¦ crossing fingers.

    What Do You Hate About Your Mach-E?

    Not hate, but things Iā€™m disappointed in 4 months in ownership: 1) the profiles set when people get in the car is sporadic. My wife and I both use the car, both have iPhones. When we are together riding or separate, there is not regular behavior with which profile is chosen when you get in the...

    Disappointed with Mach-E charging procedures

    Set to charge to 90% at home. 4.2.1 update happened last night (from 4.1.2), car charged to 100% overnight. Went for a short drive, came back, plugged in and went to 100% again. Chargepoint charger, which I donā€™t configure to control charging. Confirmed setting in app and in car are 90%...
