Has anyone tried to use a Level 1 EVSE with an adjustable amp setting? Last night was my fourth time towing my FFE because I ran out of battery. It doesn't look like I'm going to change my habits, so I think it is a good idea to carry a portable generator, in case of emergency. I want a 1000w...

Can someone explain to me why the kWh usage in MyView is not always ~33kw? For example. Today, I drove on highway around 75mph and reached 14.3 kWh used with about 30% battery left, after traveling 44 miles. But, when I’m driving around town it will display much higher kWh usage…with the...

Anyone replace their sock suspension with aftermarket? If so, what did you go with and any impact on range?

I got 4 new stock Michelin tires installed today. Wow. What a difference in range. I get way more. The watts/hr is significantly less too!!!

Hi everyone, I recently purchased a 2017 FFE, and am getting ~70 miles per charge. Speed avg 55-65 miles per hour. Relatively flat roads, avg temp 75 degrees F. No climate control. A little bit of radio. Cruise control. Car has 30,000 miles on it. Is this normal? The car should still have...

Hi everyone, Has been a long time. I sold my 2013 FFE over 3 years ago, mostly due to the short amount of range and lack of fast charging. I just purchased a 2017 with 32,000 miles on it and pick it up from CarMax this weekend! I most defiantly look forward to the upgraded range and charging...

I noticed the 2018 FFE is up on the Ford website. It claims to have a 35kw battery. Is this different than the 2017 battery?

Anyone else notice that the price of a replacement HVB from Ford has drastically increased in price? At one point it was below $10,000. Not it lists for $21,214.18. Is this because the 2018 battery packs are new, will be used on FFE from any year, and/or has more Kw??

I noticed my FFE has been put into sleep mode. I haven't drive or touched the car in a couple weeks. Anyone know anything about it???

Anyone hear anything about the 2018 FFE?

Looking for Electrical Engineer who has 5 years experience working in the field. I'm a college student taking an introductory electrical engineering class and I am required to interview an electrical engineer who currently works in the field and has 5 at least years experience. This has to be...

My 2013 FFE hasn't been able to sync up with MyFordMobile. Anyone else having the same issues? I've got the new modem from the recall.

I'm experiencing a buzzing noise in the top front right speaker in my 2013 FFE while I'm talking on the phone and I push the brake pedal. I experience this when the entertainment systems is both on and off. I'm using an iPhone 7 connected to Sync via bluetooth. It's no big deal to me, but I...

Does anyone know if the FFE preps the HVB to optimal charging conditions prior to charging the HVB? For example, if the HVB is -10 degrees, the charging system will warm the HVB to a more optimal chargin temp? Or once the charger is plugged in, it immediately starts applying juice to the HVB?

Yep. Long shot I know. Anyone know how to disable power steering? I would imagine that costs tons of energy and you would probably considerably extend the amount of distance you could travel if power steering was disabled. I always liked the feel of driving a car without power steering anyways.

Hi all, I'm about to spend about $5,000 on a battery backup for my 2013 Ford Focus Electric. I would have gave this money to Ford in order to increase the range in my FFE, but its not an option so I'll develop myself. The plan is to use a module from a Tesla battery, inverter and EVSE in...

Stopped by the Ford dealership today and inquired about the 2017 FFEs. They told me they can see 2 being built at the factory and have VIN numbers assigned.

When I called about the door handle recall, the dealership told me that the door handle isn't available yet but will be in the future. On a side note, they called me back and informed me of a new recall that was released today in order to replace the modem for the radio. They ordered the...

Does anyone know the exact specs of the HVB in the FFE? I do know that there is a lower battery and an upper battery. Here are some questions I'm trying to have answered: 1. Are the two battery packs connected in series or parallel? 2. What is the voltage of each battery pack? 3. Has...
