    Post here if you have an active FDRS account and are willing to look up info for others

    Thanks Mikeg. At least the list is shorter than before the recall work. I wonder if OTAs will ever start again.

    I had my pedestrian sounder fail and kept getting an error message and constant beeping. So I went in to get it fixed and they had the parts for the recall. So had my HVJB recall performed. I told them I also havenā€™t received an OTA update since last August. So they told me that they only...

    Thanks. I was going to say,ā€ At least my headlights are up to dateā€¦ā€ and then I saw the headlamp update. šŸ˜‚ But my car is running great. So no complaints. I think we sometimes forget that at one time, you bought a car and that was it. No updates. You want the new featuresā€¦buy a new car. My...

    Lets give a shout out to the GOOD dealers

    CA - Villa Ford of Orange internet sales team was great, they found a tiny scratch at the bottom of my bumper(black section) and they didnā€™t want me to take delivery until they fixed it, and the service has been great one the last 1.5 years. Domingo Naranjo is my service guy and he is great...

    Electrify America stations are regularly full now - is EA finally making money?

    On holidays, I leave the Mach-e at home and drive the Honda Swagger-wagon On road trips anywhere in CA. Cant wait to get a NACS adapter. We drove through there at that time and couldnā€™t be happier about our decision.

    Plug in to Maintain 12V Battery

    With Carscanner, I would notice a 20%drop in state of charge of the 12 battery every night. I took it to my Dealer and they said my batter was definitely not holding a charge. They replaced it. I still noticed about a 4% drop overnight. So I canceled my Recurrent account and I saw 1 or 2%...

    Better lighting for the frunk installed.

    I had to pull my panels to charge my 12v battery. Since I was in there I decided to improve the lighting for the frunk. I had some 12v led light strips that I used to fully light up my trunk of my 2016 GT. They donā€™t make them anymore, but they are similar to these...

    22 GTPE Lower Insurance

    Pick-up trucks can be classified as commercial vehicles. That drives up the rates because it can be considered a work vehicle. And since it is an AWD truck, the likelihood of you taking it off-road and crashing it is higher. (I knowā€¦AWDā€¦not 4WDā€¦but do you think your insurer cares. Then factor...

    Lost Wireless CarPlay

    I have had the same problem for about a year, and I have never been able to figure it out. Even switching from an iPhone 12 pro to a 14 Pro didnā€™t solve the problem. I deleted the Bluetooth connection from my phone. I deleted the FordPass app and it still didnā€™t work. So for the last year Iā€™ve...

    Ford Quadruples BlueCruise Price to $800/yr for All Renewals

    In the last 15 months I estimate that I have used BC for roughly 10,000 actual miles of boring I5 driving from So. Cal. to Northern Cal. and back. It made those trips tolerable. I believe I notice less ping ponging in BC. Maybe it just feels that way. Anyway, $800 a year is insane. At 10...

    Adding an inside Liftgate Power Switch

    Finally made the effort and installed the switch. The hardest partā€¦I am colored blind so the green and brown wires all looked the same. I counted 4 wires that could have been brown. Somebody wrote that it was a really thin wire. So I put a ground wire on an Xacto blade and probed the thinnest...

    Can One-Pedal Driving induce hydroplaning?

    so from this thread and others, I have concluded that 1) sometimes 1- pedal stinks 2) sometimes CarPlay stinks 3) sometimes GOM stinks 4) sometimes range stinks 5) sometimes charging speed stinks 6) and most of the time electrify America stinks (though it really hasnā€™t been too bad for me) But...

    Loneliest Club Ever

    At least the bumper and wheel arch gaps are improved over production Model Yā€™s.

    Can One-Pedal Driving induce hydroplaning?

    In So Cal, driving defensively means watching out for the lunatic next to youā€¦like the truck whipping by me. I had my carscanner running while parked and a local police office walked by. He said nice car and I was showing him around the car but he reminded me that if my phone is running and in...
