As I understand the lease end process when I worked on the IT systems 10 years ago, the auction actually starts on the dealer’s lot when the vehicle is turned in by the customer. Ford sets the price and dealers in the area can bid on it. There is also a price that the dealer can buy it out...

It shows 87% for me and I know that my HVB is at 50% so glad it still shows 12v battery state.

Fantastic announcement and good move by Jim Farley. This should eliminate the charging network as a buyer concern and he did not forget existing customers either! This car keeps getting better and better from when I purchased 3 years ago.

Adaptive cruise control is my favorite feature along with driving a fast electric vehicle. I use this feature all the time when I drive on the highway, road and even a neighborhood. It helps me keep my speed within the limit and I find it such a relaxing way to drive.

I travelled to my friends house in Signal Mountain, Tennessee on my way to Florida from Michigan. I left the charger plugged in for 36 hours on 120v and think that is when the squirrel bit my cable. No squirrel pictures but do have some teeth marks on the cable! Fortunately no bare wires so I...

Actually my dealer ended up getting complaints by other customers and finally installed 240v. I was about ready to take it to a different dealership (and my future business) that said they could take care of me when the dealer said, “we have had other customers with charger problems and now we...

There are other posts on this topic as well if you search for Amber. The bottom line is take it to the dealer and tell them the error codes you’re getting and you want it replaced under warranty. They will need to test it with your vehicle so you will need to leave your vehicle too. I’ve...

20 months and 30,000 miles on my Job 2 GT. I’ve had a few minor issues (camera issues, build quality, mobile charger). Ford and the dealer have taken care of them. I bought a first gen EV and expected issues. I really appreciate the people that had the Job 1 vehicles and the issues they...

It use to work in FordPass app but now it is out of sync with what the charge plan in the car is. Not sure why but I’m just ignoring it in FordPass and applying updates in the car.

Zeigler Ford was able to replace my charger after they duplicated the Amber error light. New charger works fine now. It sounds like they had a few other customers with similar issue and were taking care of them as well.

So how many weeks has this gone error free for you? Also did you have the glass rooftop or windshield replaced ? I’ve had problems for quite some time on and off after software updates by the dealer. They now believe it’s the cable in this TSB but I don’t have the glass rooftop nor have I...

I’ve actually seen my Mach E cool the battery pack while I was on a long warm trip before a DC charge stop. I was watching the battery temp with Car Scan. The car never notified me that it was doing that though so I assumed that was what happened.

I had this problem with several failed attempts. I put my car scanner on it and noticed my 12v battery was at 40%. So I charged the vehicle battery (not the 12v battery) overnight to just 60% and the 12v battery was up to 88% after that. The update worked fine then. I understand 12v battery...

I got my GT in September 2021 and have 28,000. The state of health from car scanner is 97%. I’ve done maybe 40 DCFC charges over that time. Normally charge with 32 amps in garage to 80% as I’m retired and don’t need to charge it every day. Only charge it when it gets to around 30%.

I’ve had repeated problems and multiple trips to dealer over the last 6 months with only software updates. I removed the camera cover, adjusted the cable and reset the error codes with car scanner. No issues for the last week after receiving 3 errors on the way home from the dealer with their...

Ford is not the first to adopt the Tesla standard, Aptera is. Aptera is the solar powered vehicle that has been taking orders and going to production next year. https://aptera.us/tesla-charging/ Tesla’s benefit for allowing others like Ford to use their standard is the obvious one: revenue...

I make it a policy to never get extended warranties as well. However, when we bought our Flex in 2019, we decided to get ESP. It was a good move as the entire sync system died. It would have been about $1000. We also have a key fob that’s gone bad. Guess I could have easily paid it out of...

My wife doesn’t drive my MME but I installed FordPass on her phone and she gets all the alerts I see. I asked her if I should turn them off for her and she wants to see them. Guess it gives her comfort even if she gets alerts early in the morning that charge is complete or car is ready or...

My mobile charger is overheating and giving me the amber light for about 30 seconds before it goes off and then comes back on in another 30 seconds. It appears it continues to charge during this although drops to 24amps before going back to 32amps as measured by CarScanner. I have done all the...

I’ve had good success with it on an IPhone. The only nuisance I had is I’ve noticed it is not quite as quick as a key fob. When I walk into the garage with the car, I sometimes have to press the hatch button a couple of times before it opens. I don’t mind the delay as it’s better than...
