    Hakkapeliitta 10s

    After my last two pairs of studless tires (Blizzak LM02 on the MME and X-Ice on the HCH) I decided to go back to studs and had some Hakkapeliitta 10s put on today. They are by far the quietest studs I have owned but still pretty audible. I canā€™t wait for our first snowfall! I will report back...

    Studded tire recommendations ?

    I just ordered a set of Nokian Hakapaliita 10s and will have them installed next week. Prior to that, I rode the last two winters on some Blizzaks which were fine in the snow but left a lot to be desired on ice. I have also tried the Michelin X-Ice on my last car and was unimpressed with ice...

    Job 1 Premium without working inside Frunk button. I have a question?

    I would not at all complain about having a button on the screen, but is it really that hard just to bend over and pull the release twice? I use my frunk a lot (I keep my bike pump and tools there) and donā€™t really mind.

    Kids in the Mach-E -- experience / tips?

    I tried the rear door handles. My 10 year old daughter likes it better than just the button. My 5 year old son hung from his and pulled off the 3M sticky within a week. Overall, they are a 50% hit and now my car has 3 door handles instead of 2.

    important note about the door handle. please read this if you purchased the door handle

    I had this problem and a small bit of filing fixed it. I am pretty sure everything was flush when I put it on but no big deal. I wish it were a little more sticky though. My 5 year old pulled his off with too much downward motion, even though I heated the adhesive thoroughly before sticking...

    Ford App Forgot Home Charger?

    That seemed to workā€”thanks! That worked! For some reason I thought all of that needed to be configured in the app. Has it always been available (and I am dense) or was that added at some point? šŸ˜œ

    Ford App Forgot Home Charger?

    My car spent some time at the dealership last week for the windshield fix, a software update and replacing my rock-damaged radar sensor. All went well, but when I charged it that Friday night, it charged to 100% instead of 80%. The only saved charger in the app was the dealership location and...

    Gratuitous 31.1mi/kWh Picture

    I was listening to the radio and had my phone plugged in. No seat/wheel warmer or anything else and the climate was off (my daughter was a trooper and left her ski pants on for the trip). Iā€™m surprised that would show energy but nothing on driving. Itā€™s probably something software related to...

    Watch out for your front!

    It wasā€”I was an end of March 21 build. However, based on the timing of it going south and the physical damage, they are saying that it is because of the impact. Thanks for posting thisā€”I will keep it handy when having the repairs done.

    Gratuitous 31.1mi/kWh Picture

    I skied Loveland yesterday and had to snap a picture of my highest trip yet heading down I-70. The whole 230 mile drive was 3.3 mi/kWh so my mileage is already ticking up as Spring starts to spring.

    Watch out for your front!

    Mine comes on 100% of the time when I get close to something which has conditioned me to get close to things so I can check if Iā€™m parked ok. I really wish there was an ā€œalways visibleā€ button on the screen to turn the camera on instead of multiple menusā€¦ @Ford Motor Company

    Watch out for your front!

    A few weeks ago I pulled into a parking spot at a local trailhead and lightly tapped the front lower bumper on a rock. It was so slight that I didnā€™t think anything about it until the next day when I saw my shutters looked funny. It turns out that I pushed the lower part in which broke the...

    Replacing one tire on AWD?

    Bought 4 new tires and 4 new rims since I couldnā€™t get my favorite Michelin Defenders in a 20ā€ and was sick of the bad tire selections in that size. They got me I guessā€¦

    Replacing one tire on AWD?

    My wife had a similar staple and Costco wouldnā€™t fix it. In fact, we had to drive home on the spare because they wouldnā€™t put the old tire back on (obviously not an option on the MMEā€¦).

    Replacing one tire on AWD?

    Thanks, I will try them. I have purchased tires there for years before Costco and this is a reason I should probably go back thereā€¦

    Replacing one tire on AWD?

    The staple is enough in the tread that it could be repaired if it were a nail. I am not concerned about the sensors though, my concern is the rear differential (or whatever deliveries the rear power in the Mach E).

    Replacing one tire on AWD?

    During the last cold snap, I had a tire drop to 30 psi and it threw a low pressure alert. I pumped it up and it hasnā€™t dropped since. However, yesterday I looked more closely at the tire and found an electrical staple in it. I know from a similar experience that Costco wonā€™t repair a staple so...

    Pre-Collision Assist Issues?

    I got a warning two weeks ago that my Pre-Collision Assist was not available randomly on my drive to work. The warning stayed on EVERY drive beeping at every start up and the Adaptive Cruise wasnā€™t working either. I made an appointment with the dealership and they are able to get me in on...

    Repeated “Chargers Unreachable” alert in car

    I got a ā€œpre-collision not availableā€ yesterday which still hasnā€™t gone away and multiple ā€œChargers unreachableā€ todayā€¦ I have had almost 10k miles of trouble free performance before this though. I hope Ford gets this sorted out soon!
