I'm not sure where you got that I'm being defensive. You commented on my comment and I commented as a reply. That's a conversation.I was just having the discussion, no need to get all defensive...
I don't agree that a software fix automatically reduces performance. It certainly can, if handled in a ham fisted way, but it doesn't have to. Better power management and temperature controls can manage it, I bet. Unless it's such a massive physical design flaw that you have to cut power dramatically, software doesn't have to be a wet blanket.Well with all that said ot appears if Ford is going to rollout a software fix for this problem, it looks like the vehicle performance will be sacrificed to overcome the contactor problem. That woukd be the only way to reduce overheating of contactors. The only true way to fix it without reducing performance would be to replace the contactors with one's that could handle the current load and the heat generation.

My thoughts too!!! Hate the two toneYou mis-capitalized it. It's bZ4X
Maybe they can do a paint recall and paint the fenders the same color as the rest of that car at the same time?
Looks like Toyota is also suffering from the Whompy Wheel syndromeThe BZ4X wheels might fall off....major recall.

Toyota Recalls bZ4X As Wheels "May Fall Off"
Dude, the reality is it doesn't matter. You bought from Ford, Ford is potentially screwing you to save money. Will you go after Ford or their supplier? The buck stops at Ford, end of story.I was just having the discussion, no need to get all defensive, this is a forum after all. I agree any manufacturer with a recall is at fault no matter how you look at it, it’s their product. My question was about how is at fault if it wasn’t manufactured by Ford. For example, Ford doesn’t make their own batteries and share actually share batteries with other car manufacturers (albeit with different specs). So if those batteries start spontaneously combusting who’s fault is it? Ford will obviously be responsible, but do they have their own legal recourses to recoup financial loses. Again, just a question, I’m not arguing this is the case so try not to get too offended. We get it you’re very helpful to all and all knowledgeable.
Gotcha, you’re right, Ford is the worst, selling my MME.
Well, there goes my afternoon - thanks...There are logs on the Premium AWD ER Mach-Es power curve during acceleration.

Of course not - but the assumption that F ups are the sole domain of Ford seems common.Someone else's f*ck up doesn't excuse Ford's...
