Just got my ordered in July Mach-E GT Friday, love it so far, looks like it's going to get over 300 miles/charge around town. But question: The screen behind the steering wheel has a lot of open space, and some of the indicators, especially the ones on the left side, are quite tiny and hard to read. Is there any way to make them bigger and possibly rearraign that screen?

no way to make them bigger. there is no customizing in a large aspect, but you can add or delete the driver alert or having your cruise on or off will modify it, but that is really it. You can also put it on auto mode, dark or light mode.

Also, I would like to be able to access the 12 volt battery terminals without having to remove two pieces of cowling. Would popping two holes above the terminals void the warranty?

Well, hopefully Ford reads these posts and will correct this.

Waiting for responses to this. I actually bought two plugs for the holes I anticipate boring. But I haven’t worked up the nerve to attack the cover on my pristine baby.

How big are you going to make the holes? I'm thinking just big enough to attach my air pump.

As far as I remember, I bought 1 1/4” plugs. I want to be able to attach jumper cables or a battery charger without pulling the covers.

Cutting holes isn’t going to do anything to your warranty unless Ford can prove those holes caused whatever problem you’re trying to get covered.

Now they obviously are not going to replace the panel you cut holes in if it has some other defect later on.
