    06/10/23 Build Week Chat

    Waiting on my 2023 MME GT PE to come in. Ordered 3/22/2023. Just hope this latest delivery hold doesn't hold things up.

    2023.5 Models?

    I saw a reference on this forum to a 2023.5 Mach-E model, but couldn't find anything further. Are there mid-year changes planned for the Mach-E?

    Repurchased MME GT PE Replacement

    Ford has kindly offered to repurchase my 2021 Cyber Orange Mach-E GT Performance Edition and help me purchase a replacement vehicle. The main caveat is that the selling dealership must sell the new car to me at MSRP. I really want another Cyber Orange GT PE, but there does not appear to be any...

    Dealership Needs to Break Glass

    Continuing the saga with my dead-Mach-E problems (https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/powertrain-malfunction-saga-continues.26064/), my dealership has advised me that they cannot unlock the car to get inside, despite having the key fob, keypad code, and jumping the LV battery. I cannot...

    Powertrain Malfunction Saga Continues

    Back in early January, I posted about a powertrain malfunction error message on my MME GT PE. It turned out to be a faulty motor oil pump. After over a month in the shop, the pump was replaced and the car returned back to me. They did not replace the motor, though I thought maybe they should...

    Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power Service

    My 2021 Mach-E GT PE started throwing a "Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power - Take in for service soon" message. I took it in to my local dealer a week ago. They thought that it would be a software fix, but whatever they tried did not resolve the issue. They've opened a ticket with @Ford...

    Kia Charging vs Mach-E

    So disappointing to see a Kia EV6 charge it over three times the speed of my new Mach-E. I think Ford significantly reduced the DC fast charging rate in an effort to fix the frozen contactor recall problem.

    Resetting Car for Sale

    I'm going to be trading in my grabber blue MME FE for a cyber orange MME GTPE. I don't want to leave any possible security issues behind. What should I do prior to saying goodbye? Just perform a master reset?

    Unraveling Production Mystery

    I'm trying to figure out when my MME GTPE will finish production. I've got four pieces of information that do not reconcile: 1) Ford tracker says the car went into production 12/15/2021. 2) The software modules have been loaded. 3) The window sticker (created 12/16/2021) says 2021 model year...

    Ford Does Not Want My Money

    I tried to place an order for a second MME on the Ford website. This is a new ordering process to me, since I placed my first order directly with my dealer. I was trying to avoid going directly through the dealer again since you lose some visibility to your order status. I went through the...

    PPF with Racing Stripes?

    My cyber orange MME GTPE is due for delivery next month. I plan to have traditional black racing stripes applied down the middle of the vehicle. I also want to have the car entirely wrapped in PPF. How does it work when you combine PPF and stripes? Is the PPF applied over the stripes, or...

    Eeny meeny miny moe, where did my presets go?

    In the last couple of weeks, the car seems to be randomly reassigning radio prest buttons -- mostly double assigning SiriusXM channels that I frequently listen to -- replacing existing preset stations. Anyone else experiencing this? And on a related note, that last OTA update indicated that...

    Mud Flaps

    Possibly the first MME in North America to get mud flaps. Had to import them from England, since they don't sell them in the US. The install was a bit more than I expected -- had to drill some holes, but nothing a mechanically-inclined person could not accomplish.

    Electrical System Drain

    I received a message on my phone from the Ford pass app that read "Energy has been transferred to 12V battery. service required" In my messages, it further states "Electric Blue (my car's name) has transferred energy to the 12V battery because of a high load within your electrical lines." Has...

    My New MME Game -- What Quirky Thing Will Happen Today?

    I love my grabber blue MME FE, but I just never know what mood it's going to be in when I start it up. So now I play a new game when I get in the car -- what new quirky thing is going to happen today? Yesterday got a message that adaptive cruise control was disabled (even though it wasn't and...

    Data Disasters Will Robinson!

    Finally got a pic of the fleeting "Data Disasters - Data Disasters - No Traffic" message that occasionally pops up on my display after I start my MME.

    First multi-state trip in my MME FE

    Took my first long-distance trip in my MME FE from Georgia to North Carolina. I used Ford navigation. A few thoughts/comments/observations/questions: I planned the trip using the Ford nav system. It automatically added DC chargers along the route. It was a viable route and seemed to space out...

    DPF?

    I guess I need DPF - Deer Protection Film. Two deer took aim at Electic Blue (my MME). One missed. The other hit me broadsides. Going to cost $$$ to repair. Thankfully it's covered under comprehensive insurance.

    Installed Hidden Hitch by Stealthhitches

    I installed my new Hollywood bike rack onto my stealthhitches.com hidden hitch today. They had to cut away a hole in the bottom of the back bumper to install the hitch. I was a bit concerned about the hole, but was able to fabricate a plate to cover it. I'm kind of proud of my homemade...

    How to Engage Autowipers?

    I've read through the owner's manual, and turned on rain sensing autowipers. But yet, when it starts to rain, they don't come on automatically. Do you have to have the wipers turned from the steering column on for this to work?
