What's going on with NACS charging adapters never shipping?

[RandyMache]

Ordered my NACS adapter March 1. "Estimated Ship" date keeps being moved to later month after later month. Was hoping in March to at least have it for December holiday trips, but I guess not.

What is happening with these adapters that takes over 9 months to deliver? Sure; they're "free", but promising anything to a customer, even if "free", and never delivering the promise is crappy.

I ordered mine in February last year, I just received mine 2 weeks ago. Hopefully you will see yours in the next 30 days.

Ironically, I just got mine today. Going to supercharger later or tomorrow to try it.

a bit off topic, but does anyone know if these NACS adapters also work on a Tesla Level 2 48a home charger?

They will not. These adapters are for DC Fast Charging only.

I stopped receiving updates on mine and figured I would just never get it but today it unexpectedly showed up! I have no idea how to use it though. Do I need to download the Tesla app or the Ford app will do its thing when I plug in?

Scan the QR code inside the box

Plug & Charge can handle payment automatically, and you can use FordPass to find Superchargers and pay for charging as well (same as on the other 11 in-network networks).

There's a lot more information at ford.com/fastchargingadapter as well.

I assumed all chargers could read the vehicle's VIN - that that was how plug and charge worked.

That is not how it works, has nothing to do with a VIN. ISO-15118 uses certificates, Autocharge+ uses modem MAC address.

I too ordered on March 1 - and it arrived today!!

Ordered two (yep we have 2 mach-Es) on 2/29. Order number 25xxx arrived mid-Novmber. Order number 33xxx not yet arrived. At least we have one for our trips. Used successfully for trip from Orange County to East Bay a couple of weeks ago. Definitely help the range anxiety when you have twice as many places to charge than previously.....

I ordered mine when you did. It arrived Saturday 12/07. I think dates changed from June to August to ASAP.
