I am having some really bizzare errors. Quick drop down about accessing EV range keeps showing up. "System Error: Cannot access EV range". Also My distance indicator shows I am about to collide with invisible non-existent cars. Its bouncing back and forth like a yo-yo. Car and sensors are clean. Ford replaced / reprogrammed sensors. This happens day/night/traffic/no traffic.


This has been happening for a month or so. I finally had my HVJB recall work completed. This was supposed to have been fixed. My tailgate error not opening through software, key or manual.


I'm losing confidence in this car. 12k more and I'm out of a warranty.

UPDATE:
Things took a turn from annoying graphical anomaly to dangerous today.



I drove down from Thornton to Colorado Springs. I wasn't getting the collision indicator anomaly so far. Anyway, after a bit of highway driving through Denver morning rush hour traffic I broke free and headed south towards Castle Rock. Not much traffic. I turned blue cruise on. Everything was going swimmingly well from Castle Rock to The northern Part of the Springs (north entrance area). Then The blue protective bubble graphic started to show a car (that didn't exist again) going in and out of the Bubble very quickly. The car started braking and accelerating very quickly like a plunger in a toilet it caught me off guard (and throwing me back and forth in my seat). It cycled like stomping on the brakes then flooring it about 4 times over the course of 3 seconds before I hit the brakes myself to disengage Blue Cruise. That could have been ugly. It felt like someone slamming the brakes while keeping their foot floored on the accelerator.


Don't use Blue Cruise if you have this issue. Nope.


I don't think I'll be driving this car until they figure this out.

That sucks. Would drive me crazy. I’m guess you don’t have anything mounted near the radar.

Something might be messing with the radar. Either an aftermarket front plate mount, or the radar bracket has cracked or gotten out of alignment. Has there ever been any front end damage?

To fix the other issue, I'd suggest a 12V reset, followed by a master reset if that doesn't work.

Nothing has changed since I bought the car two years ago. Nothing obstructing the radar. No front end damage.

My 24 GT was doing this same thing about 2 weeks ago. It had been fine for the two weeks since I got the car, then I changed the drive mode - I posted another thread about anomalies there. Fine at the time, parked in a Costco lot, as I was leaving the lot, it was imaging cars every second or two. I changed the drive mode back to Unbridle and it went away. But I tried Engage again and it came back, so left in Unbridle.

Took it to a car wash and the sensor problem didn't come back after that. I tried to induce it, but it never came back. And rebooting the APIM got rid of my drive mode issue.
