Went on holiday and got a ride in my Mach E to the airport, but the person didn't plug in after dropping off. Car sat with about 54% charge for 12 days. Temps were fluctuating between 26-45 F while away--but nothing sustained below freezing. Needed the car right away after getting home and...

Just got a premium for a loaner—currently have a select. This is my first time driving a different trim of the car…and WOW I had no idea how much more comfortable the premium seats are. while I can live with the select seats, I REALLY don’t like the select headrest. It is tilted too far forward...

Any of you Jersey people in South/Central have a good electrician you can recommend for an EV Charger installation? I've had a mixed bag of experiences so far with the estimates, but more importantly getting someone I trust to do this properly and not take any shortcuts.

This was an unexpected benefit of an otherwise crappy situation. Mach E got the dreaded “powertrain reduced” error, so took it in for service. only loaner they had? F150 lightning pro—a completely stripped base model with NO extras. The elusive sub-40K lightning. I’m quite impressed with it...

Interesting behavior I noticed today. It is a hot and humid afternoon and my car has been unplugged a couple days. I went to get something out of the trunk and used my phone to open it—immediately the AC system kicked in, obviously to cool the battery since the car was unplugged and NOT...

Had a strange, one-off “bug.” started the car in unbridled, 1PD Immediately noticed that at stop/go or slow crawls that the car would “jerk” forward upon accelerating—with a corresponding “clunk” sound from the front. Was just leaving for a 150 mile trip, so took it around the neighborhood at...

Woke up this morning to a strange charge on my credit card from “Ford Smart Mobility.” Naturally concerned since I never recalled making any transaction with Ford Smart mobility, I checked my email and found a receipt. It was a legit charge at an EVgo station way back in early November! For...

Finally got my Juicebox in, after what seemed like an eternity for it to be in stock. But now the hard part -- finding an electrician. I've had issues with getting someone competent for years and what's worse is that my neighbors and friends are all in the same sorry boat with no recos. So...

I've now had TWO "long distance" trips in my standard range that has been at the very edge of what the Mach E said it could do, and both times landed home with about 20 miles to spare and no need to charge. The first was a 98 mile round trip in 50-degree weather on mostly highways. At the time...

Just got a message from BPU. They are proposing to reboot the program by moving some money and revising the incentive structure. This would take effect soon, once approved by the Board. The revisions include cutting the incentive to $2,500 below 45K; $1,000 45-55K. They are planning to move...

My car is going in on a warranty claim to fix a misaligned liftgate that is likely causing rattling. It might take 2 days. I asked about loaners and was told "Ford stopped offering loaners." Of course, I protested citing that it's B2B, only had the car a month, etc. But no dice. I tried to...

Here’s a weird one. the last few days, both Waze and Apple Maps lose my car’s location. Not FAR, but far enough where the directions get all messed up. I just thought it was Waze at first, but Apple Maps did the same. i recorded a video to show an example of what happens. Sometimes this...

Ok, I'm starting to get a complex here, so wanted to see if anyone had a similar experience. Otherwise, I guess my MME and EA just aren't "meant to be" and really can't stand each other's company. Here's the situation: There's only one EA DC charging bank near me, so of course it's the only...

Starting a new thread as I hijacked another's (sorry) but realized the issue is different. I haven't solved it yet, but will log the issue, attempted fixes, and (hopeful) resolution to help others. My MME has only 250 miles so it's obviously a factory issue, and will have the dealer look at it...

...well technically 299.2 I've had my SR RWD Mach E for a week and--regrettably--have only been driving it around town. Low speed/stop & go. 1PD mostly. High 80s/low 90s. A/C at a comfortable 72. Been tracking the miles/kWh and I'm consistently getting 4.4. Assuming 68 kWh usable, this...

Now that I've had my base Shadow Black "entry level" Mach E for a few days, I'm convinced this is the most incredible EV value right now in NJ--heck maybe one of the best "deals" on any new car. I have a stupidly great looking car that's a blast drive with a mammoth "gee wiz" screen and "pony...

Ok I've just joined the club with a stripped Shadow Black base select. Now, many would ask, why would you buy that? Answer: 5K state rebate vs. 2K state rebate. So this will be helpful for anyone looking to get into the cheapest Mach E experience you can. I will say -- I'm thrilled...

This is specific to NJ, but my guess is there will be some similarities to others nationally and wanted to share my experience so others can avoid some of the frustrations I ran into. If using the Ford.com "search inventory" tool to find one in the spec you want--while it's better than nothing...

I'm trying to fit my Mach E into my state's low MSRP cap for a full rebate. Basically, I have to get a no-option select model to get the max. I'm wondering if anyone knows how much the dealer can install aftermarket--not appearance mods like wheels or wraps, but things like (1) heated seats...

This is my first post and I joined the forum after two generations of the Chevy Volt (sold my '17 last month because I got wayyy more than I expected). Excited for Mach E and this forum. But obviously I've got to get the car first. Seeing some (but not all) of the buying stories gives me bad...
