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

    Traded at 31k miles a couple weeks ago for ER XLT Lightning. I was planning 100k miles, but the SW glitches with a constantly rebooting center screen in my 2021 sealed the deal. Love the Lightning so far, love being in a truck for my daily commute too. I might consider another MME, but right...

    Thanks all, the forum has been great. I hope Ford keeps getting this better each year.

    Blank screen every morning

    Sorry to hear, this was actually the last straw with my 2021 MME that drove my Lightning upgrade last Friday. OTA are disabled on my Lightning now, I'm convinced this was the driver as until this year of mass OTAs it was working perfectly.

    Good Bye MME, New Lightning

    Friday I said good bye to 2 of my favorite vehicles, my 2021 MME (31k miles) and my 2014 Ram 1500 (127k miles). Both have many memories with my Ram being a staple in my kids growing up over the past 9 years, countless road trips and vacations memories. The MME was a bit of a spontaneous...

    Screen was replaced and camera. They said it took several SW updates and I wasn't in the car 24 hrs and the screen was locking up, going black and rebooting with no improvements.

    Buying the Best EV Under $60,000: I Tested the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Tesla Model Y, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Others

    Since January I've had 11 OTA updates that prior to this I had a very reliable daily experience. Now I have constant center screen reboots, various component saying not available. I've tried the dealership 3 times now for over 2 weeks and each time they say all fixed and within a day my...

    Buying the Best EV Under $60,000: I Tested the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Tesla Model Y, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Others

    For the 1st time, I'm thinking lease is better way for EV. My 2021, at 29k miles was just perfect till this years of numerous OTA updates and now I have constant various bugs and issues. I've a ER Lightning XLT on order for build Sept 11 right now. I like this option over the MME for several...

    Anything you would say to a potential new buyer (as of August 2023)?

    I'm at 29k miles on my 2021 RWD std range range premium. My wife and I really do enjoy the car a lot, it did well when my Dad was sick in Atlanta with numerous unplanned trips from Huntsville. My range significantly drops to less then 170 miles when Temps are below 60. The issues I have are...

    Main screen out (reset does not work)

    Good luck, mine was in and out for 3+ weeks, 1 day later still going black. This morning I had to hold volume down and seek right button for awhile, over 1 min to get it to come back. I'm not taking it in till it fries completely or my Lightning shows up with a normal screen vs this ridiculous...

    Renting an EV(non Tesla) is a terrible first introduction to an EV

    I tell everyone who rides with me or asks, that it isn't normal trip car and is far more effort and always takes longer then the same trip in my Ram 1500. It's the truth, especially for those of of us not in EV meca. Since 2021 there has been exactly 1 charging infrastructure improvement in my...

    How many days was your Mach-E with the dealer to repair warranty software problems?

    Mine has been in twice for screen resting issues, still doing it. I'm done taking it in till it completely fails, or my 2023 f150 Lightning XLT shows up.

    Ford cuts F-150 Lightning Prices

    Ok, even with my continuing issues with MME, I ordered an XLT Extended Range today in that Blue color, no options. Says Oct delivery and X Plan price so will get a very similar deal I got on my 2021 MME. Might be dumb, but I do like how my MME drives but realness more room in a truck and...

    Bezel Diagnostics screen

    I started the other thread, I'm sorry to say @Ford Motor Company there is not much help or support for dealing with this from you. My dealership tool over a week this last time in and previously was in shop 4 days. So far they replaced the screen, sent it back, 1 day later it started going...

    Blank screen every morning

    Still in service, I've been elevated to shop foreman and service manager. They replaced rear camera and no think a module sw is needing update.
