It takes many discharge/charge cycles to 100% to have an effect, especially since Ford has a large reserve on the battery (it is a 77kwh battery but they only let you access 68kwh). So, if you are charging to 100% of what they allow you access to, you are really only charging to 90% or so of the actual battery capacity. Over 3 to 5 years what you might end up seeing is that the car only takes 60 to 65 kwh when charging to "100%".

Charging to "100%" won't effect the warranty

I’m not going to worry about it, the HVB warranty is good for 8 years!
