    Now phone sound (intermittent)

    Mine has been doing it almost every day now. I stop the car, turn it off, open the door (to turn everything off). Turn it back on and it works. I have also disconnected Carplay in settings and re-activated it. That works too. Big pain in the .... Not sure which side it is on, but it is...

    Power-Up 6.1.0 OTA Update

    Thank you. That answered my question. I was not enrolled. I was invited for my 2021 but not for my 2023. I enrolled the ‘21.

    Power-Up 6.1.0 OTA Update

    How can you tell if you are EA? I think I am. I know that I applied. Is it flagged somewhere? Thank you.

    Departure Scheduling hit and miss this fall.

    Not only is departure time not working, but I find that home charging indicates wrong schedule - though I believe it charges per the correct schedule. If I look at details for charge on FP, it says 7:30 pm (I plugged it in at 8:15 pm so I don't know where that time comes from) and it will...

    Would you pay $75/month or $800/year for BlueCruise hands free highway driving? This will be option for 2023 Mach-E

    I, too, use BC 1.2 every day with the lane changing feature. I like it a lot, but there are limits to what I will pay, even if I can afford it. Ford will have to find the sweet spot at which point we will pony (sorry) up the bucks. I'm not sure what that is for me and I love it. $10/mo or...

    BlueCruise 1.2 on 2023 Mustang Mach-E hands…off review (by Electrek)

    Tried BC 1.2 for the first time today. Seemed to work pretty well, but the speed prediction may have not worked so well. Not a long enough trip to get a great idea, but a couple of times, my speed setting of 65 mph, suddenly slowed down to 58 mph. I think it was an adjacent car that made it...

    Power-Up 4.2.4 software version released

    Bugs that are easily reproducible are much easier to debug, but intermittent bugs are "bugs" too. Intermittent bugs might be reproducible, but difficult to reproduce because the conditions that cause the bug are several and not obvious. Bugs might be hardware or software and sometimes one...

    Second ChargePoint charger at different location

    Technically, I have one for my wife and one for me, so having to put one on her phone and one on mine shouldn't be a big deal. That said; it annoys me to no end that I cannot have both chargers on one account.

    CarPlay Nav can’t position the MME

    I had no issues for a year and a half with my MY'21. This just started happening and is either the model year ('23, but I think I have heard others with different model years having problems), the Ford update, the iOS update, or the CarPlay update. It isn't the phone hardware, because it has...

    CarPlay Nav can’t position the MME

    This has been happening intermittently for me. It can happen in the middle of a route when suddenly the location puts me a mile or so off. It is the GPS on the phone that is being used and it is getting confused. When it happens, I have confirmed it is on every app on the phone (and CarPlay)...

    Does Departure Times Work Consistently for Anyone?

    I believe my Departure Times still works fine from Fordpass on my model '21. On my new '23 it works - kinda. I like to move them because my schedule is always moving. It doesn't move well. I find I can ADD a new one and it will accept it. If I change an old one, it might move it, but it...

    No more turn by turn on dashboard for Apple Maps?

    On my 2023 with Apple Car Play maps - turn by turn directions on the front console seem to have changed behavior. It only shows when I am nearing a turn then goes away. On my 2021, it keeps the directions showing on the front console the whole time. Is this a bug or a feature? Anyone else...

    iPhone navigation apps don't work in Mach-e

    There is some odd interference going on. My iPhone 12 works almost all the time, but there have been a few occasions where it just seems lost. The first time I thought it might be the charge pad or my MagSafe credit card holder, but today I never took it out of my pocket until I noticed the...

    SSM 51292 - False Alarm Activation

    I wish it were that easy. I like my dealer, BUT I took in my '21 for the AC and Seatbelt recall work and asked them to fix my charging pad that doesn't work well with my iPhone 12. I gave them the TSB 22-2141 and they promptly ignored it and said they couldn't find anything wrong with the unit...

    SSM 51292 - False Alarm Activation

    I love this forum! Can always find the answer to the question! My '23 is randomly alarming which never happens to my '21. I'll have to see if my dealer knows how to do the door update.

    Waiting on an Order?

    When I picked up my ‘23 they said a bunch came in. Sure enough the lot had 5 or 6 in a variety of models a week later. I asked the sales guy if they were adding ADM to the units in the lot. He said, “Yeah, but only $6,500.” That was two weeks ago. Today I received this email: Before mine...

    One pedal drive (vs) Brake regen

    I agree with you. My point was that the amount of regeneration isn't the same for 1P and 2P during a coast. You get more regeneration from 1P than 2P (inefficient as it may be) when coasting to a stop. Not saying it is better; just stating the fact that there was more regen with 1P and more...

    One pedal drive (vs) Brake regen

    I just watched the video and like some commenters in his feed; I knew what the result would be based on how he described his driving. In one case he said he would coast as much as possible and try to time lights so he would not have to stop - the same thing I would do in a ICE long before...

    One pedal drive (vs) Brake regen

    Forget about what got you to speed, becasuse it is the same for 1P or 2P; what counts is the energy stored in the car moving at that speed. That amount of stored energy is going to be the same whether in 2P or 1P mode. Going from X MPH to 0 in each case will convert the same amount of energy...

    One pedal drive (vs) Brake regen

    Is that true? I have used 2P and coasted (while in drive) and it certainly feels like there is very little regen slowing the car down. I have been amazed (coming out of 1P) how far it will coast. Never tried it in neutral, but I haven't done that with a car since I had a stick. I'm not...
