Meh. Not that long anymore if you have your rabies shots (2 of them) and test results, and fill out the paperwork, and let the state know your coming well ahead of time, and have a responsible owner, and ….

There was an update for 23 and 24 mme’s that made the car behave as if it had a dead 12v making entry impossible. Using the front bumper leads to release the hood so you can jump the car and get in doesn’t work as the LVB wasn’t actually dead.

There’s an update that undoes the introduced error. They’re just waiting on that update. In the mean time, if the error is triggered they have a method for access.
Still no fix for the software they install on Job 1 cars that slows our charging down to a crawl. No fix or acknowledgement for a year and a half on that. Like leaving a defective HVJB in there and installing software to limit speed, road and charging, and stress costumers out. With limp mode software 2.0 it now charges so slow it would need to be disclosed on sale as it is definitely defective. I have patience's but a bit over the top at this stage. Was told fourth quarter (soon) if that does not happen than we will need to explore other routes to getting this diagnosed and fixed. It has been reproduced by Ford they know there is a problem just no transparency or direction. Moms the word. Admitting they have a problem and are onboard to help us is not in their nature on this one. More about liability and making money it appears. Just like what drove the software fix for the HVJB. Hey Ford fix my car. Rip the Band-Aid off at least.

Full power. Not because I use it sparingly, but because it lasts 5 seconds or less. ?? Ford totally set false expectations on the performance capability of the GT. BAs Ford, bad! ??

Software that slows charging down to a crawl? I know I’m behind on OTAs, but I haven’t even HEARD of this update? Source?

It is call charging cord stuck (melted) CSP 23B50 (Link). The modules updated in that TSB have been revised a number of time. Last set caused the 1PD to randomly stop working when driving. Here is a link about what they released initially that some of us have been living with for a long long time.

L2 charging speed.

Thanks! Fortunately, I seemed to have missed out on all that fun. My L2 charging speeds on my 48A FCCS seem to average around 9.5 KWH.

I do not think it can walk and chew gum at the same time ;) Hard to put it in gear when plugged in.

Some of us would kill for speed like that mid 6.5 is as good as it gets here.

Not with the ACME "Car Wont Move With the Charge Cable plugged in Adapter". It's free with the purchase of the ACME EV Buddy generator and trailer.
