Nay. Buy a ChargePoint or another name brand, wallbox, etc with great trending, scheduling and reporting from an app different than Ford Pass. Search this forum for my past feedback. It’s not a great unit. Very basic. It could be great if Ford would allow full integration, but they do not. It does not even reliably report your kWh charged. I got mine for free with my Nov 21 purchase. That’s the ONLY way I would get one. I also have a ChargePoint home, it’s so much better.

The gray is what you get from the Ford (and it’s not accurate) and the whiter shots, with gray graphs are ChargePoint.

We also have a ChargePoint Home Flex, while I wish there were somethings that were different, it works great and I really like the reporting functionality. It's been handy when one of my neighbors stops by to ask about the EVs, how much they cost, how much it changes our electricity bill, etc.

I installed the FCCS when I first got my car almost 18 months ago. It does its job (charge the car) just fine, but the connectivity and reporting are lacking. You can buy a better EVSE for less money.
