Mach-E Fast Charging Tesla Adapters Start Shipping TODAY Per Ford!

[jhalkias]

Just got the below email - Adapters are shipping starting today!

Hi there. Today, we’re excited to announce that the first complimentary production Fast Charging Adapters are shipping today and are on their way to Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning customers, including you!



As a reminder, Plug & Charge is the most optimal experience for using your adapter

Seamlessly use your Fast Charging Adapter to activate and pay for charging at Tesla Superchargers with Plug & Charge. If you have Plug & Charge enabled, simply plug your vehicle in to begin charging – payment will be handled automatically.


If you have disabled Plug & Charge, or if your vehicle has not received the Plug & Charge software update, you can always activate and pay for charging at Tesla Superchargers like all BlueOval Charge Network chargers using the FordPass mobile app or the Public Charging app on your vehicle’s touchscreen.



Additionally, if you have disabled vehicle location sharing, Plug & Charge will not be able to activate. In this case, enable vehicle location sharing to enable Plug & Charge.



You can check or update your Plug & Charge status in FordPass under Vehicle – Charging - BlueOval Charge Network.



In case you come across anyone in the coming weeks with questions, below is some info for you to help them out.



Keep Your Vehicle Connected and Up-to-Date



To use Plug & Charge at Tesla Superchargers, your vehicle needs to receive an over-the-air software update (24-PU0119-DC-CHG4, to be precise). To ensure your vehicle can receive this update, make sure automatic updates are set to ON. Without this update, you can still charge at Tesla Superchargers by manually activating and paying for charging in FordPass or the Public Charging app on your vehicle’s touchscreen.



Keep Your BlueOval Charge Network Account Up-to-Date



To use Plug & Charge, or to pay for charging with the FordPass mobile app or the Public Charging app on your touchscreen, you will need a BlueOval Charge Network account.



It’s also important to keep your payment information up-to-date in your Ford Account. If you’ve received a Payment Failed notification when using the BlueOval Charge Network, you won’t be able to pay for future charging events, including with Plug & Charge, until you resolve the issue and reprocess the failed payment. To check your status and fix this issue, visit Connected Services.



Finding Upgraded Tesla Superchargers



To find upgraded Tesla Superchargers, use the FordPass mobile app or the Public Charging app on your vehicle’s touchscreen. Look for the “Adapter Needed” displayed next to the charger listing.



Tesla Superchargers will come to Connected Navigation and other routing tools in future over-the-air updates.



Using Your Fast Charging Adapter
1. Open your vehicle’s charge port door and lower the cover to reveal the fast charging inlet.
2. Attach the Fast Charging Adapter to the Tesla Supercharger cable by firmly pushing them together. You should hear a click when the cable is fully inserted.
3. Plug the Fast Charging Adapter into your vehicle.
4. With Plug & Charge is active, charging should begin automatically. If not, you can activate and pay for charging using the FordPass mobile app or the Public Charging app on your touchscreen.
5. Stop the charge by pressing unlock button on vehicle charge port.
6. Remove adapter from charge port using silver release button on the top of adapter.
7. Detach adapter from Tesla Supercharger cord by pressing down the cable release tab.

What number were you in the registration process?

90000116

I was also one of the early Beta testers that had to send back the pre-production unit

 

[Thunderbuck]

Well THIS is encouraging! Thanks for sharing with us!

I’m around 150, hitting refresh on the email multiple times now

THIS is the thread I was waiting for! @jhalkias, please post pictures when it arrives! Congratulations!

 

[Hammered]

I'm 3k in line, not in a hurry, it'll come.

 

[mkhuffman]

I am order 179, so crossing fingers I get the email today!

Coincidentally I was just checking the status of my order before I saw this thread, and still "in production" as of a few minutes ago.

Is anyone planning on selling their Ford adapter and keeping their third party adapter?

Ford plans to sell theirs for $230 based on what I see online and A2Z has it for $167 after using the 15% off "FORD" code.

I would be tempted to buy a Ford adapter if someone is planning on selling that and keeping the third party.

Ford's adapter is the only one officially supported. I don't own 3rd party because wasting time charging sucks so the MME is my around town beater.

Just FYI, don't wear out your keyboard. I got this email as one of the early Beta testers. I am not sure that Ford is sending the same email out on normal orders. The EV team at Ford sent this to me. But encouraged me to share the news.

Hello John.
I haven't seen this email yet from Ford but it is good news.
Wonder if the timelines they gave us for our adaptors will be met as promised.
Good luck to all.

Yea, you must be in an early batch going to beta testers. I'm at 101 and didn't receive the email (yet).
I forget what the highest reservation number with April delivery was? ~3000?
So, if they are going to hit April targets, will be sending maybe a thousand per week I'm guessing?

If we're using discount codes... Can we use machevlog instead? Same discount but you help support your fellow Mach-E owner!
