Does anyone else get the impression that the car will actually charge past what Ford shows as 100%?
scenario today (but also a few other times too)
-normally charge car to 85% at home
-set car to precondition (plugged in)
-went on ~14mi drive
-saw at least 10-15% drop in battery charge (don’t exactly remember). FordPass shows used 4.3kWh
-destination had an L2 charge. Plugged in for giggles (why not get free power if I have to pay for parking anyway…) — forgot that I didn’t set it to charge to 85% as a new location
-come back to battery at 100% approx 3hr later. Did NOT precondition or remote start prior to coming back
-drive home… and only use like 2% battery - FordPass says 3.5kWH (this journey 9.9mi)
Seems kinda weird… no?
