    Sudden Issues with Fordpass Today

    Fordpass has always been fairly reliable for me, at least with remotely starting my Mach-E. Today it seems to be completely borked. It won’t start remotely, it hasn’t updated the battery % or rabe estimate, and won’t remotely unlock. It will still unlock the car when I’m next to it, though isn’t...

    Front license plate bracket triggering sensors

    Been ticketed twice without a front license plate in IL so I purchase this since I didn't want to drill into the bumper (there have been talk about changing the law). Ever since installing, the front collision sensor triggers when driving under 5mph. Doesn't happen every time but enough to be...

    Possible update to allow AWD to switch to RWD?

    A couple months ago I was charging next to another Mach-E, and the owner mentioned reading in one of the forums that Ford is working on an OTA update for AWD Mach-Es to switch to RWD under certain conditions to help extend the range a bit. I haven't been able to locate any relevant posts, and...

    Switching PaaK to a New Phone

    Just got a new iPhone and I was able add it as a PaaK, but I'm unclear on how to remove my old phone as a PaaK. Under MyKey it is showing 4 keys (2 fobs, my old iPhone, and my new iPhone), but I'm not seeing a way to remove one of the keys. Also, when I start my vehicle it keeps asking to set...

    Rear Ended Today :(

    Toyota Camry decided to suddenly stop in the middle of the road. I was able to stop in time but the truck behind me couldn't. Luckily, truck driver and I were both fine but ughhhh...so annoyed I now have to deal with this. This is my first accident in 20 years of driving. I imagine it's going...

    Trunk Floor Upper Height Supports Snapped

    I didn't realize there were 2 heights for the trunk floor, and have kept mine at the higher level since receiving the vehicle. I heard a noise while driving yesterday, and when I looked, saw the supports on the left and right side snapped off. The supports at the lip of the trunk seem perfectly...

    BlueCruise but no 21P22?

    I have a Job 2 2021 Select with BlueCruise, but I'm pretty sure I do not have 21P22 since my charging curve drops at 80%. I just want to confirm that that's even possible - to have BC but not 21P22? Also, is 21P22 tied to a particular OTA Power-Up version? I'm pretty sure I am on 1.7 or 2.1...

    BlueCruise Trip Chicago -> St. Louis

    I took my Mach-E on its first roadtrip from Chicago to St. Louis today. Approximately 325 miles total. My 2021 is a Select AWD with standard range and dealer-installed BlueCruise built in 08/21 (I think). My key takeaways: Really wishing I would get the OTA that updates the charging curve. I...

    2023 Mach-E Feature Wishlist

    Now that the 2023 Production and Ordering Dates have been released, what do you hope they add, add back, and/or remove in the 2023 model?

    14-50 Nema Extension Cord Safe With Mobile Charger?

    I'm visiting my parents in a couple weeks and thinking the easiest method for charging at their place will be to use their electric dryer outlet. The laundry is slightly too far for Ford's Mobile Charger to reach, so I was thinking of trying to find an extension cord for it. Is there anything to...

    Could Charging Speed Increase to 350 kW via OTA?

    As the title says, I'm curious if the Mach-E's DC fast charging speed could be improved from the rated 150 kW to 350 kW via a software update, or is there a physics/design limitation that would make it impossible with the current 2021/2022 models? Obviously the charging curve itself can be...

    Impressed by Range Fluctuation

    Let me preface this with I’m fully aware how much temperature impacts range (30-40%) and how flawed the guess-o-meter is. That being said, I’m still amazed by how much a difference it makes! When I got my Select standard battery eAWD at the beginning of April in Chicago where temps fluctuate...

    Nav Indicator on Instrument Cluster

    I tried the built-in nav system a few days ago and since then I've seen the trip mileage indicator display on the instrument cluster. Pretty positive it wasn't there before. I've confirmed I don't have any active navigation and can't find a setting that would turn this off. Any ideas?

    Charging Outside Preferred Time

    I just switched to Time-Of-Day pricing with my electric company and set my charging time to between 10PM-6AM.m directly in the vehicle yesterday. I do not have Departure/Comfort settings configured. Additionally, I'm currently using the 120v adapter because my 240v EVSE installation isn't...

    Can You View kWs Charged/Month?

    I just got my Mach-e this month and I'm looking into getting solar panels for my home. I was wondering if there is a way to see how many kWs I've charged my vehicle for this month thus far so I can extrapolate my energy requirements? I wasn't able to locate this in an aggregate in the FordPass...

    Car Off, Door Open Beeping

    I'm using PaaK and I just started noticing yesterday when I park, turn the vehicle off, and open the door, the vehicle beeps (same beep as when the car is on and you undo your seatbelt). It doesn't stop until I close the door. Is this expected? I wonder if it's similar or related to the alerting...

    Easy Entry Failing with Remote Start and PaaK

    Easy Entry has worked for me pretty consistently with my PaaK, but I've noticed it never seems to when I use remote start through FordPass. Has anyone else been able to reliably replicate this issue?

    First EV and Found on-lot!

    I originally placed an order for a 2022 Mach-E Select in Grabber Blue with comfort/tech package. Heard about the Active Park Assist+ prep kit situation and then learned the foot-activated liftgate was removed from 2022s so started looking around for 2021s (also didn't want to wait). The few...
