Wanted to share an update with anyone interested. I followed up with my dealer to see whether I can schedule the repair.
Like others mentioned, windshield repair instructions are received but I believe most dealers are a bit hesitant to schedule anything at this point and they cant really...
yeah - unfortunately my business insurance/structure prohibits me from driving it if it has a safety recall, even if the notice says its safe to drive. Best part is I got the notice from my business, even before the Ford/manufacturer notice.
sorry - I know it sounds like I'm whining too much...
-Thanks! exactly what I was trying to find out with anyone that has already talked to Dealers.
I have few other minor things scheduled for 18th. So I'm going to call in on Mon/Tue (15/16) to see whether they received any new instructions for the recall and hopefully they can schedule the work...
Thanks @generaltso you are correct and may be I should've worded my question this way.
I'm *curious* about last part "fix not available yet...". Has anyone else talked to their dealers and scheduled the work and/or have more information?
-- recall was released around October 23rd and caused...
I got mine scheduled, went in and the staff checking me in said it'll take a day or two. So asked whether I wanna reschedule. I said ok and later on got a call back saying that they don't even have the proper fix ready and not ready to schedule at all.
I'm not sure about that last part "fix not...
I did NOT. Once you go through Ford PAss, connected services - it routes you to "start/enable" your trial. I dont remember exactly. But I think whether you sign up or not, your trial starts the day you purchase the vehicle.
Thank you @John_C .
I like most of the youtube/blog reviews that came up the last few weeks, but most of them were by youtube influcers and some enthusiasts. I wanted to see a few regular day to day driving reviews.
Unfortunately, I didnt get to drive it much yet. Hopefully I can get some real...
If you get it and then planning on making the final decision - I think you will end up getting it.
I didnt really notice any issues with getting in and out. But Tesla does have the feature where the seats move in-out of the way and adjust to your setting as you get in and out. But this is also...
I think its a unique color and looks nice. I should've gone with the bigger wheel though (without being cheap). I did see another grey (dont remember what grey), that looked nice as well - but thats a more common color choice.
I may have taken the trunk with a wide angle on my phone. But I took another picture with some Costco groceries loaded, will add it to the original post.
I do agree that having a built-in inverter that gives 120V would be great. Without knowing much about mechanical & electrical side of things...
Dealer - Vista Ford, Woodland Hills
Since this is a special order and vehicle is already allocated to me, I think they had to work with me and couldn't really mark up the price with me. Most of my time was spent back and forth about options pricing. Also, seems like most Dealers still don't know...
I completely get you and that's one of the biggest reasons I considered Mach-E. Even though FORD is not in my top vehicle options, I think they have more experience building cars (than Tesla).
I was actually surprised on how good the quality is in the Mach-E, its not like the few Ford vehicles...
-- One question I always had, and never could find a clear answer was about clarification on what we get out of Electrify America network. After looking at my account and enabling....
You receive two years of complimentary "membership" for Electrify America network

Do what i did... Convince your mind to buy all 3. But in all seriousness - they all have many differences apart from sizes. If you really have to pick one, and you like them all equally - I say test drive them all, but at least for a day or two. You can rent Teslas on Turo and soon I plan to put...
Yes, DD was included in the sticker price. I think in a way, yes it shouldn't be part of residual calculation. Now that i think about it, may be not even for sales tax calculation?
As far as down payment, I don't think there's a limit and 30% shouldn't be an issue. They pretty much total up the...
I agree - There is something weird about it. Also, most dealers don't really know much about the vehicle and actual app setup (not their fault though).
My advise is:
Have the ford pass app ready until the "send activation" step
Complete the activation acceptance on the vehicle.
Wait till the...
Not sure I know what Paak stands for. So far havent had any issues with the display and software. Being a tech guy - I sometimes hate when everything is dependent on a computer, so we'll see. Once in while when I have glitches on the Tesla - I can go ahead and do a reboot/reset without impacting...
