My biggest peeve that makes me hate the car -- the double honking to tell me I tried to lock my phone in the car that's actually in my pocket. First of all, the car has the number pad to get in if I did lock my key/phone inside. Secondly, the double honk is obnoxious and I'm sure it's woken my neighbors late at night. Third, when pressing the trunk close button to walk to get in the car while it's raining, it's very annoying to have to walk back to press the button two times to get it to close from its half closed position.
1) Let us disable the the key left inside detection. We're adults and can be responsible for our own actions. 2) Let us change the double honk everywhere it's used to a much more subtle noise from the reverse sound speaker.

Ford's software, the app, the car and their website all suck big time.

A general rule I find that with fords sync software is to treat the version number as marks out of ten rating and it will you a good idea what to expect when you use it so roll on Sync10.

I feel like I must have purchased a completely different car.
I could nit-pick a few things.
I don't like the location of the HVAC controls.
The car seems to think whomever opens any door first is the driver, so sometimes I have to select my profile instead of my wife's because she got into the passenger seat first.
I wouldn't mind a better DCFC charge curve, but so far I haven't found myself too bothered by the charge times. It's nice to have time to take a walk while going on a long trip.
But, then I grew up driving rebuilt, Frankenstein's monster junkers from the salvage yard that others had thrown away, so a car this nice is the most luxurious thing I've ever even been in.

It is so obvious that the connected phone, and also the last tuned radio station should be tied to the driver profile. But it is not. Every time I get in the car and my wife was the last driver, it connects to her phone and has the radio tuned to her station. I change it, she then drives and everything is set to my phone and radio station. Dumb design.

The stiff, jarring suspension on less-than-perfect city roads.

I'm having a series of "Gremlins" in my '22 Premium.
1. Random single swipes of the windshield wipers. Courtesy wipe function is turned off.
2. Starting the car and the radio comes on when it was left off after driving it the last time.
3. If the radio/EC was left on, then starting the car and it changes the input.
4. Error message "Adaptive Cruise Control Not Available" as I was backing into the garage.
5. Playing music through USB port and the screen goes completely white! Have to reselect the input to get the display back.
6. Error message "The Active Media Player on the connected device does not support the browse feature." I wasn't trying to browse at the time and knew it wouldn't work anyway.
7. Tried to access the online Owner's Manual from the car and got the message: "Owner's Manual data is unavailable for the below configuration." Program CX727
Love the car but hate the nuisances that seem to be part of the deal. Going back to dealer for the second time on all of these issues tomorrow. Not real optimistic.
