    How long do you plan to keep your Mach-E?

    If I could walk away from this thing today I would. Still have 18 months left on a 2021 Options model. Had to have the roof panel under the fin repainted. Front camera repaired. Panoramic roof recalled. Windshield recalled. The cruise control randomly just stops working until I pull over and...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    Pulled the front off my Grizzl-e today and kicked the amps back to 32 down from 40 and the car went a full 2.5 hours until fully charged. First time it went more than 30 minutes in almost 3 weeks. No clue how to get Ford to move on this. It's not something a car owner should be expected to...

    Struggling with overheating…

    Also look here: https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/car-randomly-stops-charging.27358/page-6 I've had a Grillz-E for almost 2 years and placed outside. It's been through 100+ degree temps and no issues. It's hard wired @ 40amps and starting around 4/28 stopped working reliably. I can...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    Ford's OTA model has been absolute trash. Every update it's a question of what was broke and what setting I need to reset.

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    It's okay at Electrify America stations. This is following what others are noting in this thread that it's unique to Level 2 chargers operating at higher amp ratings. I don't have much access to other chargers of this type. Several us had the same issue pop up within the same day. That's...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    I can't go more than 30 minutes on a 40amp Grizzl-e that is externally mounted. There might be a way for me to open it up and set a dip switch or jumper pin, but frankly this is a Ford problem. I'm going to get a case open with support (that will be useless) and then basically go to war with a...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    Found this from another forum last year, similar issue. https://www.[Banned Site].com/threads/charging-stops-prematurely.4460/ All points back to something with Level 2 chargers. And more users talking about very hot charging ports/plugs. Sure seems like an update is telling the cars to not...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    Mine stopped working on the 28th as well. I know that distinctly... It was the last Friday Hood Meadows was open for ski season and I was going up there. Plugged the car in on Thursday night, went to get in on Friday at 7:30am and it had barely charged. Thankfully Sandy has an EA station now...

    Car Randomly Stops Charging

    I also have a Grizzl-e and this started happening a few weeks ago. I can't get more than an hour on the charger before the car faults. Went out tonight after the third failure and charge plug was HOT. Uncomfortable hot. I'm also waiting for a warranty approval on peeling paint. Not real happy...

    To Frunk or not to Frunk. That is the question.

    Oh for sure, the sand. Keep that stuff in the frunk where you can sweep it up/vacuum it. My 10 year old also did a week long camp and didn't shower the whole time. It was a 45 minute ride home. I couldn't put him in there, but his gear certainly did. It stuuuuuuunk.

    What level 2 charger is everyone purchasing for home use?

    I live in Portland and needed an outdoor charger that could stand up to weather. Bought and had a Grizzl-E installed. Works great. Absolutely zero complaints. Only hiccup I've had was a power outage put it into some sort of fault mode. I flipped the breaker at the fuse box and it was fine...

    To Frunk or not to Frunk. That is the question.

    I paddle board pretty frequently and it's great for tossing life jackets, pumps, soggy water shoes, wet towels, ect in. It's also fun getting head cocked looks as you open the hood and just start dragging things out of it.

    Car rolls backwards uphill in D

    Ideally I'd have a user override that would let me set the drive mode for reverse. I live by 1PD for basically everything. But have hated it since day one for reversing. It's just got an overly hard to press pedal in that mode and the engagement is unlike any other time driving it. You have...

    Car rolls backwards uphill in D

    Good morning, I have a separate thread going on regarding some paint peeling and responded back via DM with my VIN and also mentioned this issue.

    Car color is Rapid Red. Here's a couple more shots of it this morning.

    Car rolls backwards uphill in D

    I don't understand what you mean by use the 1PD to "stop". I have tons of use cases where I pull into an inclined spot (nose up, butt down), and have zero issues. When I back out from a flat spot it does the same. Plop down, put foot on brake, hit start. Take foot off brake, put car in...

    Car rolls backwards uphill in D

    I haven't seen any updates or other conversation around this so I want to share related findings I've had with mine in 1PD. I have similar issues, but well, in reverse. I've had issues when I'm going *up* an incline and try to go into reverse. 1st time was a few weeks ago parked in a short...

    Peeling paint on panel under shark fin antenna

    We were supposed to, but it's just been a pain to get things scheduled. We have not done the recall yet.

    Peeling paint on panel under shark fin antenna

    Have an AWD Extended range Premium with all glass roof. Purchased a little over a year ago. Been outside in generally mild PNW weather. Was loading groceries and saw what looked like peeling paint. Got home and gave it a quick rinse and the paint around the edge of that panel is definitely...
