    CarPlay was bad recently, nearly unusable since iOS 17.4

    Iā€™m wondering if anyone else has experienced this or found a fix. Since I got a number of updates in mid January I started having CarPlay issues where it would connect over and over and over making it hard to use. It would eventually settle down. Note iOS 17.3 came out around then to. Well...

    My car uploaded over 300 MB?

    Iā€™m curious what this could be. I got my car back from the local dealership last week after a long wait on a part. I just noticed it uploaded 121 MB the day it came home and 190 MB the next day. In contrast it downloaded about 6 MB total those two days. Was this diagnostic info? Maybe driving...

    Does FordPass no longer get a message when there’s an update?

    There is a green alert in FordPass on the main screen showing my car got an update, but not what version it is. But the message center doesnā€™t show a new message. My last update message there is from October, though Iā€™ve now gotten 2 updates since then without messages. Is this a...

    Can’t use my car again? Think I’m done Ford.

    Iā€™m at about the sell point. I love my car, but this is too much. I already lost it for a month last year or so due to the BEV issue. And the times for the windshield recalls. Took my ā€˜21 Job 1 in yesterday for 22B28 and 23B50. While there they also did two TSB updates. When the car was...

    BlueCruise 1.3: are the disengagement warnings better?

    It not clear to me if cars with 1.3 are in customer hands yet or not, but I know you YouTubers have used it and I would assume auto journalists as well. Does anyone know if there is now an audible alert when hands-free mode turns off and you need to put your hands back on the wheel? I know...

    Anyone had luck with an iPhone as a hotspot?

    Has anyone figured out how to successfully get the Mach-E to connect to an iPhone hotspot? My phone shows up in the WiFi list. It starts connecting. The iPhone shows something connected. After 15 or so seconds the car gives up (never finished connecting) and the phone stops showing any client...

    PaaK: what if you have passengers?

    So I was thinking of switching to PaaK but had a question about you handle a specific case. Letā€™s say Iā€™m out driving around with passengers. I pull up to a store to run an errand and go in with my phone. What happens to my passengers? Can the car keep running? Will it turn off and the alarm...

    How long does HVB repair take?

    I was out driving today and made a quick stop. When I got back in and tried to turn the car on I got the dreaded ā€œstop safely nowā€ and couldnā€™t put it in far. Had to have it towed. So for those who have suffered before me how long does the repair tend to take? Dealerā€™s closed today so I was...

    I can’t make my mirrors auto-fold and my dealer is useless. Ford?

    Iā€™ve had my car for a year and this has never worked right. Itā€™s an early Job 1 ā€˜21, fully updated. I never get to see the puddle pony because of it. The mirrors are fine mechanically. They fold and unfold perfectly every time you press mirror button. But when I lock my car they fold in...

    Is there *any* fan noise during L2 charging?

    I have a very early 2021 Premium AWD ER, fully up to date software. Iā€™ve been getting by on L1 charging (I donā€™t drive a lot) but Iā€™d like to upgrade. There is someone living above my garage. Wth L1 the fan can spin up loud if Iā€™ve been driving right before plug-in but it turns off within ~15...

    Is the temperature display accurate for you?

    Iā€™ve had my Premium for about a year and I keep wondering: is the temperature display on the screen accurate for you? In my last car, a Honda, it was basically dead on. On my Mach-E it seems to always be within about 10 degrees F but in either direction. Usually the more extreme direction...

    How can I tell if I have TSB 21-2190?

    Iā€™ve had trouble charging at a specific local charger, I just get a charge daily every time. Today I saw a note that if you have an early Mach E (like me) it wonā€™t charge at certain chargers unless you had TSB 21-2190. Iā€™m trying to figure out if I have had that update (so there is some other...

    Is 2.3.0 the newest OTA for those not in early access?

    Title basically says it all. Trying to determine if Iā€™m up to date as someone who isnā€™t in EA.
