    Interior seat wear

    The fabric seats in my 2013 focus electric seem to wear faster. In fact i already have one hole in the drivers seat. As any one else noticed faster fabric wear? Does the focus electric still use recycled soda bottles for the front seats?

    Touchscreen Display Sync Problem

    I had the same problem with Sync rebooting repeatedly on my 2013 FFE. The dealership reprogrammed the display for no charge. What they told me is thier is a recall with my ford touch. This likely is due to number of issuses customers are seeing.

    Parting thoughts on our FFE

    On my 2013 FFE I had a rattling noise for any bump in the road. This was traced down to the interlink bars for the stabilizer bar on the front end of the car. The swivel joints had worn out. This happened in about 25,000 miles for me. This seems to be a common problem for all Ford Focuses.

    No heat.

    Yes the heat is now working. Does this cooling system also handle the high voltage battery? Because the battery was worked on earlier in the year. The low coolant level maybe cause by dealership not topping off the fluid properly.

    No heat.

    I did try turning on the defrost to high this did not work. I tried disconnecting the 12 volt battery for about 3 minutes, this didn't fix the problem. So this last Friday I took it into the dealership to have it fixed. This is what the service report said. "36764 verify the no heat condition...

    No heat.

    The modem is located in the trunk of the car. It also will be connected to the CAN buss so everything can talk to each other.

    No heat.

    I was driving the car and the heat was non functional. I just had the modem updated on Tuesday, and noticed the no heat problem on Wednesday. I normally do not run the heat in winter, but decided to use it to help defrost the window when I noticed the problem.

    No heat.

    I have no cabin heat. I set it to 75 degrees and the fan runs but no heat. The energy monitor shows no heavy current draw. For a very short period of time it may jump full scale then after 5 or 10 seconds drop to zero. Then it stays there. :(

    Field service Action 15B23

    I finally got my car back on March 24th. It's been gone for over 4 weeks. I talked to one of the service techs, and he told me that when they pulled apart one of the electrical connectors under the car it had turned green on the inside. This is most likely what caused the car to be no longer...

    When you pull out the old one, please post some close up pictures. I would like to see if they are repairable. So any one has one replaced ask for the old part back. They may not do it if it is warranty repair. I would like to know what part failed and why it failed?
