    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...
  2. Ford CEO speaks bluntly about China.

    SmarterEveryDay made a video that touches on how China eats our lunch when it comes to manufacturing.
  3. After NACS ports are updated will we get auto charge port open, too?

    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.
  4. What Was Your Father's Old Car?

    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.
  5. Rotors warping 3rd time in 7 months.

    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...
  6. Door welds breaking and Ford Dealer wont help.

    '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...
  7. Possible "backup solution" for failed 12-volt battery??

    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...
  8. Who has the oldest functioning original 12V battery??

    '21 Job 1. It gets replaced when it stops doing its job. As Dolph said "if he dies, he dies."
  9. Seat Belt Status Display - What is Going 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...
  10. 2021 MME with a bad rear motor 68k mi

    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.
  11. Beeping EVERY time I stop!

    If you're plate is where it is in your profile pic then thats probably your problem. Take it off and see if acts normal
  12. Need help cant find part number of this

    I would just try an Ace Hardware or one of the big box hardware stores. They'll have something almost identical.
  13. It's November. Where is our Blue cruise update?

    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?
  14. Cracking In Frame of Driver Side Door

    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.
  15. Cracking In Frame of Driver Side Door

    Add mine to the list as well. Quite disappointing.
  16. EV Tires Causing Increased Pollution

    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.
  17. Musk Quadruples Bus Voltage - any thoughts?

    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.
  18. Electrify America announces new price structure

    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.
  19. Front Sway Bar Bushing Failure at 30,000 miles and Front Camera is now completely Dead.

    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.
