I have a 2021 premium RWD that in the last 3 weeks or I started getting notices that charging had paused will before the set range which was usually 85-100. Last week I took a trip (Phoenix to San Diego) and able to charge at the Electrify America stations without trouble except that in Yuma the charging was slow but the chargers had a notice that they would be for maintenance. I was able to charge at my son's 240v/40amp outlet (he owns a Tesla) to 100% overnight w/o problems.
At home the last 2 days, I plugged in to my 240/50 outlet the cahrging stopped after 30-50 miles of added charge. I plugged in again this afternoon and got the same pause message after 5-10 minutes. in the garage, I could smell the telltale sign of a hot wire and immediately noticed smoke emitting out of the left outlet connector and the box was hot. turned off the circuit breaker and disconnected the charger from the car and the outlet box. Have not turned the breaker back on, car seems fine.
Any thoughts on what happen? My intent is to call the electrician and Ford dealership tomorrow.
Thanks
