I thought my May of 21 battery finaly gave up the other day when the car wouldn't ready up and I got the warining light parade, it aslo tested...meh...so I decided to replace it even though I knew it wasn't going to fix anyhthing. Long story short the car is now sitting at the dealer with a...
Best thing that happened to my charge door is the latch breaking. I glued a couple of small magnets to the door and the body to keep the door closed and also removed the spring in the hinge. Easy to open and if I do leave it open it closes on its own as soon as I start moving forward.
He still has it. 66 Fairlane GT convertable. Bought it when he was 18. He only brings it out a few times a year now when he forces my mother to go to shows with him. He aslo stubornly replaced the clutch ON HIS OWN a couple years ago because couldn't wait for the weekend so I could help. He's 78.
If you're at 100% state of charge 1pd will engage the friction brakes. Noticed it the first time this year. Could be wrong but I think it was part of an update.
I've had a pulsation for a while since I rarely touch the brakes. I also rarely charge to 100%. I put 2 and 2 together when I felt the...
'21 job 1. My driver's door check welds have been cracked and clicking for at least 2 years. There's pictures somewhere in my post history. Having been a dealer tech myself for too long I knew better than to even bother with the dealer. Actually I haven't heard them clicking in a while. I can...
Sorry, hijacking.
Seen a lot of threads worrying about dead 12v batteries lately so I have to ask. Are the little frunk popper jumper wires not a reliable solution?
...carry on...
There's no occupant detection sensors in the rear seat just switches in the buckles. the car has no idea of anyone is in the back seat, it only sees the status of the belts. When a buckle switch goes from buckles to unbuckled you get the warning light even if the person gets out since it has no...
Electric powertrain components are covered 8 years or 100k miles. I'd show up with the warranty booklet in hand and gently educate your service advisor.
I feel bad for some of y'all's parents. The anticipation of Santa coming must have been brutal on them.
How many "are we there yets" before dad threatened to turn the car around?
I didn't check the others but that is the left front door. It's been making noise for probably a year. I just assumed it was the door check until this post made me take a closer look.
I find it so strange to not think we need to reduce emissions. What's the down side? Cleaner air and water? And don't say cost. I see plenty of profiles here with well into six figures worth of cars in them.
Leave a place better than how you found it.
Some interesting takes on this in here, especially on an ev forum.
I'm all for it and while we're at it I want 220 at all my outlets please. Make it so.
Who makes the decision as to who's time is more important?
Full disclosure no, I wouldn't wait that long at a charger. Not only that if a trip required more than one charge stop wouldn't even take the Mach-e.
My front end has sounded like a box of rocks from day 1. Was told no problem found, no abnormal noises heard, when I brought it to the dealer back in '21. I've just attributed it to quality being job #1.
