I bought mine at Encinitas Ford and they did the 10k service, as well as fix a wiring issue I had due to rodent activity. No complaints, and their shuttle service is handy.
When my HVBJB failed I had it taken to Ken Grody in Carlsbad, and they were also very good. They pleasantly surprised me...
It was my turn to get the dreaded SSN message last week. I had it towed to the dealer last Thursday, and I got the call a bit ago that it is ready for pick up. They replaced the HVBJB under warranty.

As it happened, the first club meeting I went to, the topic of the night was 'Is the Mach-E a Mustang?' Not suprisingly, the answer was a unanimous 'no.' I said my piece touting the benefits of the car. The Ford regional sales trainer was there, and he shot down many of the false anti-EV 'facts'...
Currently BlueCruise will not go hands-free when in the left most lane of I-5S in Carlsbad where there are concrete barriers quite close because of the new HOV lane construction. I'm curious if 1.2 will go hands-free in a lane with tighter tolerances. I'm guessing no, but a guy can dream.
That's Android Auto's Coolwalk update. It threw me for a loop on my drive home last night trying to figure out how to switch media source. I like it so far, but I need to do a deeper dive into the settings to figure out how to do all the things that I was used to in the old style.

If your registration does not indicate the above, it's...
I was told by a Ford employee that the Android Automotive operating system (possibly to be called Sync 5) is not going to be released as an update to current Sync 4A vehicles. It will be on different hardware.
Did you already fill out another REG 1000 form with your updated plate info and send it in? I still used the carpool lane solo without waiting for my updated CAV ID, but I never got pulled over either, so it wasn't ever scrutinized that closely.
You can use Alexa to bring up a navigation route in the Ford nav app. I found the Ford voice assistant to be useless in that regard when I wanted directions to REI. Alexa nailed it first try.
I generally use Google Maps on Android Auto for navigating, but it's nice to know the capability is...
It was great to meet Stephanie, Marc, and Simon, and everyone else who was there this past weekend in San Diego.
The South OC Cars & Coffee is every Saturday in the parking lot of the Outlets at San Clemente, right off the 5. 9 to 11 AM (parking starts at 8:30 AM.) Supposedly it's the largest...
