    Crazy charging problem

    The same events happened to me recently. The orange wrench was my first clue that I needed a new 12V battery. I called a few auto part suppliers and found one with-in 15 miles. The battery tray comes apart like a puzzle pieces to allow you to remove the battery that is half hidden. If your...

    End of Lease Dealing

    I am 9 payments away from my lease end and appreciate your post. My biggest issue is I will be over the 15K miles per year (45K total) on my lease. My lease is charging $.20/mile over 45K which will equate to around $1,500 at my current average miles per month at the end of my lease. One...

    Lease Transfer

    That really is a good deal considering how hard it is to get an FFE in many areas of the country. It tool 6 months to get mine here in Phoenix and wish this was available when I bought mine in July. Best of luck.

    Why does Ford think evening is good time to shut down MFM?!

    It looks like the MFM website is down tonight at the worst time - I am getting a Fault While Charging Error, the blue rings will not light up, the app is down, and the site is down. Sucks this is the first time my car hasn't charged correctly. So weird.

    I don't think ford wants to actually sell these cars.

    I purchased my FFE through the Costco Auto program. It eliminated all negotiating and the lease was based on the invoice price, plus the cost of shipping from CA. Will use it everytime I purchase an automobile as it eliminates most of the negotiating process. I recently purchased a 2015 Yukon...

    2015 FFE interior color option? Reported "10 wheels?"

    I am able to charge at work on 220V so I rarely charge at home with the included 110V charger only if necessary. I can do the 60-mile RT Commute and still have around 20 miles left over while using the AC. I am in Phoenix with the AC both directions. It has worked well so far and have yet to...

    2015 FFE interior color option? Reported "10 wheels?"

    We have a few similarities - I have the Oxford White, 60 Mile RT commute, HOV lane, leather, and initial issue with the Beige interior color. I would have preferred grey or black leather interior but defaulted to the beige as the only leather available. After seeing it in person, I started to...

    Workaround for wrong color on MyFordMobile

    Very cool fix. I have only had my car for a week but still angry that it was Black and not the correct color. The instructions worked great in Firefox. Thanks a ton for posting.

    Tony's tips for new buyers of FFE

    I waited months after ordering my FFE and after hearing it would be another month (end of July), I finally got one our of CA. If you want one of these cars, get one from a dealer that has them. My local Ford dealer called the CA dealer, Overnighted a check, and my car was here the second day...

    The FFE Sport Appearance Package!

    Great job on the upgrades - very tasteful and a great way to still have fun with your car. I just bought mine last night and already removed the dealer sticker, dealer license plate, and rear hatch focus emblem. I agreee on the road leaf emblem and will remove them tonight. Keep the pics and...

    Arizona dealers?

    I am in Gilbert as well. I am buying mine through Costco auto program which sent me to Earnhardt Ford in Tempe/Chandler (off I-10). The Costco auto program should save some money and eliminate the negotiation part of the sale - which I hate. I ordered on 2/15/14 with a $500 deposit and mine...

    Vanity Plates - Tool or not to Tool

    I am happy you started this thread because I have never had vanity plates on past cars but I am very tempted to get one for my EV. I think it would help promote the EV movement and also help to show why I get to drive in the HOV lane since the FFE is a very non-descript EV. Since EV's are...

    A few photos of my new Platinum White Focus Electric

    Great looking car - I ordered the Oxford White and may be regretting my decision. Thanks for the pics to get me excited for my car.

    Arizona dealers?

    I am in Phoenix and there are none in stock in AZ. I ordered mine on Friday at Earnhardt in Chandler and should be here in 6-8 weeks. The dealer stated that the closest state with inventory in CA. And would cost me $600 additional for shipping one from Cali. I tried to buy a Leaf as they are...
