You can run, but you can't hide.
I can't remember when we started seeing this last year....was it in May?

My car never says that. It often tells me to plug it in when it’s cold though. I don’t listen.

Thanks Jonathan! I knew you would figure it out quickly. Master search skills.

It is interesting because the photo of my dash in that thread doesn't show my parking brake engaged. Must have been one of the times where it didn't set automatically.....

Today it set automatically. (Little things that make me go "hmm?")

Mine seems to set the parking brake on its own based on inclination or rocking. (Too much of either and it sets.)

Sometimes I stop at my mailbox and leave the vehicle running (in Park). Even though it's a flat surface, it rocks a bit on the parking pawl and that's sometimes enough for it to think about setting the parking brake... Well, sometimes it does, and sometimes it WAITS for me to finish getting my mail, close the door, and return to drive, then while I'm pressing the Go pedal it sets the parking brake. This has happened about three times so far in the last 14 months.

113 Dgrees??? Wow, we had a mid 80's today and I thought it was a little toasty. I guess I was wrong!!

Actual ambient is around 103F. That sensor doesn't read correctly when it is hot out. Well, it does......it was 113 under the hood, which is where that sensor is.

If you are able to lower the speed to 32A, then your car might me happier while charging and make less noise. Just an FYI...

I would just like to endorse Leon Russell on your radio...

Thanks for the recommendation... I've got the JuiceBox 40 and cannot limit its amperage. I'm hoping Ford will add that option in their software. Its not a showstopper at all just a little annoying.

I like that channel. Lots of great music I normally wouldnt get the opportunity to hear otherwise.

Usually 40A is okay. Right on the borderline here in Phoenix during the summer. Do you charge anytime or do you have a schedule set?

Set schedule to align with the low SRP rate timeframes.
