Hi, I have been a Focus EV owner since last February, and have been seeing a big drop in range since its been cold. In the cold weather I have seen at least a 20% drop in range, what are others seeing? It seems to be related to the heater, when I turn off the heater range returns to a...

Compared to the SSN this is small potatoes, but any suggestions would be appreciated, Firstly, I am in San Antonio TX. When I bring up the weather information under the "I" icon option it shows "San Antonio" under selected location. When I click the map tab it always shows EL Paso TX when...

Finally! I have felt very conflicted. I believe in the technology and don't want them to have bad PR, on the other hand if someone got injured or even killed that by an SSN malfunction that could seriously be bad PR for the EVs. So hopefully this will be the impetus that the small number...

Many of us have felt similarly that SSN could be a potentially tragic safety issue. My own experience was once my dealer couldn't find a error code my dealer and Ford corporate just said bring it back of it happened again. Reality is it is a low volume vehicle with total sales of what? Less...

I have only had one (knock on wood) SSN, but I have 240v via a GEwatt station.

Interesting how it shows 69 miles and an empty battery. Wonder if that might be significant.

I have had hit or miss unlocking/locking. When it doesn't work while in my pocket, if I put it into the hand holding the door handle it usually recognizes it.

Would you please consider filing the event with NHTSA: https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ivoq/

I know that there have been way more than nine people posting their SSN experiences. There are now nine complaints reported logged with NHTSA about the SSN fault. See link...

Mine was the other way around. I had the SSN, then 2 months later had the bad 12v battery.

Man you had me. I was hopeful that they finally had global recall to fix the SSN glitch.

I have about 5500 miles on my 2013. Owned it since February. A delight to drive. I estimate I am spending about $29 a month on electricity and my year total will be around $350 (if I am calculating right.) I had the SSN issue occur at 1500 miles. Dealer could find no thrown codes. I...

Such a shame to have such an awesome care tainted by such an issue. That fact that we are so low volume makes it seem even more so that our few voices (despite it being a high percentage of total FFEs overall having experienced this problem), are not getting heard because our total numbers...

My 2013 has been reported at NHTSA for months.
