  1. Loose Juicebox 40 Fixes?

    Mine is very secure. There are a couple of screws in the back of the juicebox and the heads of those screws fit into grooves in the bracket. It sounds like you need to tighten the screws on the back of the juicebox to provide just enough clearance to slide into the brackets and not more...
  2. Automatic updates turning itself off?

    August 2022 Premium build. The day we got the car (9/23), we got an OTA update to 3.5.2 (small things to prepare for future updates). Since then, no further updates. Is that normal? It seems like people on the board are discussing things that I haven't received. About a week after I got the...
  3. Android Auto voice recognition has gone nuts/unusable

    Update, resolved: After finding that my wife's phone works, I cleared all the data (some 600mb, not merely the cache) from my Google app (not Android Auto app, which I had previously removed and reinstalled) on my Pixel, and the problem has gone away. I also discovered that if this happens...
  4. Android Auto voice recognition has gone nuts/unusable

    I've now also deleted the cache from my Google app, no luck. Paying more attention now, when I speak something, the Android Auto gets it pretty close on the screen -- sort of like it does before it fixes typos -- but then a second or two later (and before it recognizes the command), the...
  5. Android Auto voice recognition has gone nuts/unusable

    It seems like the Ford Assistant hears me ok, and phone calls go through ok. But with the Android Auto, it's like the speech recognition database is limited to (or strongly preferring) entries in my contacts on my phone instead of doing something intelligent locally or over the cloud. Data...
  6. Android Auto voice recognition has gone nuts/unusable

    Help! In the car today, with Android Auto (wired), Pixel 6a phone, Android Auto was unusable. Voice commands were interpreted by the system as being a garbled collection of words, mostly with random names from my phone book instead of street names and city names that Android Auto used to do...
  7. Headliner pulling away after 1 week of ownership

    Well, after a week of being in the shop, I picked up the car today. But it looks like the dealer may have tried to pry out the old headliner from the plastic piece on the A-pillar. And now that plastic piece is kind of loose, deformed, nicked, and doesn't line up with the replacement...
  8. Headliner pulling away after 1 week of ownership

    Update: Dealer says a whole new headliner is needed. Car will be in the shop for almost a week it seems, though I am glad it's not merely a band-aid that will leave me fighting about the same problem coming back a year from now.
  9. Headliner pulling away after 1 week of ownership

    My problem is worse, the headliner is fraying and even if you press it in, it'll come back out in a few minutes. Dealer is backlogged, said I can bring my car in next week....
  10. Headliner pulling away after 1 week of ownership

    So the Ford social-media team told me to reach out to my dealer.... I suppose I'm just in the honeymoon phase where it's nice to hear from Ford at all, after the 9 month wait for the car where I heard almost nothing. :)
  11. Headliner pulling away after 1 week of ownership

    Took possession of the car 5 days ago, and today I notice that the headliner on the driver's side A pillar is already coming loose. If i tuck it in, it comes back out. Has this happened to anyone else? Do I need to rush this into the dealer, or does the 3 yr warranty cover all issues like...
  12. 8/22/22 build week gang thread

    Smart Vincent is the name of some Ford database tool that lets the dealer see what the incentives were at the time of the order, because you can choose the incentives from then (in my case December 2021) or now. In view of recent interest rate movements, the older incentives are probably...
  13. 8/22/22 build week gang thread

    Hooray, we have a car! Dealer at first forgot to put in the $2500 bonus cash for using options, but otherwise everything went through smoothly. Time will tell when my wife lets me drive it. .... Thanks everybody, I'm checking out of this thread, and moving into the owners forum. Good luck to...
  14. 8/22/22 build week gang thread

    Car arrived at the dealer today (Tuesday) early morning. We'll get it on Thursday. I went to the dealer yesterday to arrange some of the paperwork in advance. Dealer seems honest, not at all predatory. That's refreshing in view of others' experiences. But Ford Corporate really shares little...

    Yes, mine showed up on United Road on Wed (the first time I checked), when Norfolk Southern said it was ready for unloading. It was unloaded yesterday afternoon, and the United Road status changed last night from inactive to in process. Earlier today, United Road said it will be at the dealer...

    Actually the railcar must have gone back to Edgemoor for the night and come back sometime this morning. It was unloaded at 3:30pm today. Thank you everyone!
  17. 8/22/22 build week gang thread

    Well, at 5:30pm last night (and throughout the rest of the evening), it was "Notification Ground Only Port Wilmington DE." By this morning the railcar "Departed Edgemoor Scanner." And now the railcar has disappeared from Norfolk Southern tracking. I'm hopeful that my Mach-E was offloaded in...

    AVPL at Edgmoor in Wilmington DE at 5:24 pm this evening (it is presently morning in Eastern time). I take it from the Lightning board that this means that Norfolk Southern expects it to be available for unloading after 5:24pm tonight (Sept 14). This will be a real nail-biter for getting it...
  19. 8/22/22 build week gang thread

    Just arrived in Enola, PA, after having been stuck in Conway PA for about 30 hours. Based on other threads, it seems likely to sit in Enola for up to a day, before heading to Wilmington, Delaware. It does not look as though it will make it and be unloaded before any rail strike....

    Now it's east of Cleveland. Norfolk Southern could teach Ford a thing or two about speed. Fingers crossed for unloading before a rail strike.....
