    Stop Safely Now Warning

    I had a good experience with my Ford dealer about this. As I mentioned in a prior post, I phoned in to my service advisor that I had the Stop Safely Now message come up a second time, but I saw no reason to bring the car in again so soon after the first time. He called me back about one week...

    Stop Safely Now Warning

    Unfortunately I am adding my car to this list. After driving the car for four months with no issues, I had the dealer perform the update to the new software toward the end of June. Twice since then I have gotten the Stop Safely Now warning. The first time it happened (at 3391 miles), I dropped...

    Who hasn't had a Stop Safely Now or other major malfunction?

    2013 that I picked up at the end of February. 1,977 miles on it without a single issue. I drove 84 miles on one charge last weekend to see how it would do pushing it to the limit of the range according to the GOM. I made it to my destination with the low battery warning on. I think this car is...

    The white with dark tint looks fantastic.

    Pros and Cons

    WattsUp, I have had almost none of the issues you mention. The only time I have noticed lagging is sometimes when I first start the car. It seems like MFT / Sync is busy booting up. This is especially true if I plug in a USB device. It is busy indexing it (and tells me so on the screen)...

    MFT/Sync Tips and Tricks

    Those are all good points you make. This is my first time having a car with a touch display and extensive voice commands. I am having fun learning about it. Probably your best point is to use the voice commands and avoid using the touch display. Once I realized that myself, I looked at the...

    Pros and Cons

    I agree, that is a great post. I agree with most everything you said. I agree with how you framed the cons. For me, in my situation, those items that could be cons are not cons for me. My typical daily driving needs are well within the range of this vehicle. It has plenty of storage space for...

    FFE now available at the closest dealer to the plant.

    Congratulations on getting your car! I am glad we have another one on the roads here in Michigan. I am really enjoying my vehicle as well. I am really looking forward to the weather warming up here so I can see how the range improves. Also, at the moment I am obsessed with seeing how few...

    Break In...?

    I know we are getting off topic here (Break In), but, wow, how are you getting such low Wh/mile? What speeds are you driving at? When I baby the car I get around 240 Wh/mile (no climate system, speeds in the 30s and 40s).

    Break In...?

    How about from Michigan? To compare to your 38-mile trip, I took a 39-mile trip last weekend when it was about 35 degrees outside. I used 10kWh. I have had the car only one week, so if there is a break-in period, I am sure I am not there yet. I expect more of a gain in efficiency to come from...

    Has anyone successfully gotten a lease?

    I leased mine last week. The Ford Web site popped up an offer for my ZIP code of $285 per month on a 36-month lease (before taxes). I got close to that on my deal. That is for 10,500 miles a year and no cap reduction out of my pocket. The only money I put out at closing was for the usual lease...

    The MyFord Mobile app

    I just got a new 2013 FFE myself. I had the same issue as you. Finally I figured out that the Web site was sending me to the wrong place. Ford has two separate sites, one for the plug-in hybrids and one for the 100% electric hybrids. It was directing me to phev.myfordmobile.com, which would...
