    Problem Moving from a Stop

    I can attest to this behavior. I've encountered it twice in my three years. Both times I just turned it back off and waited a couple minutes. Was fine after that.

    New Recall - 3G modem?

    Wow. 6 pages deep now. Wanted to chime in and say my service advisor asked me over the phone if I knew how to get the ESN from the car. She said as far as she knows that's all they need to order the part. If anyone is being asked to go in twice, perhaps you can just give them you ESN and save...

    10,000 Mile Service

    My 10k and 20k "services" were just the tire rotation. $15 at the Ford dealership. Of course they tried to bill me for an oil change, and got livid when I argued about it. And tried to tell me a whine from a fan relay was actually my "eCVT preparing to work." So, uh, don't let them lie to you...

    MyFordMobile update 3.1.14

    I no longer have indicators for those attributes either. Oh well. Regression for the next update to fix.

    +1. Smooth as butter currently.

    Crazy charging problem

    That sounds nuts. Short of disconnecting the 12v battery (or otherwise "power cycling" the vehicle) I'd hit up a dealership for their opinion. I'd also certainly get photos or video of the behavior. If your dealership is anything like mine, they're clueless about everything, and would have to...

    Vehicle Health Report Not Uploading

    Up to you of course, but I wouldn't bother. We were both using iPhone 6s with iOS 9.x. No Phone.app changes in iOS 10 that would affect this. You could theoretically use a flip phone if it could pair with the car. But of course I don't have a different idea, so, YMMV.

    New Recall - 3G modem?

    My FFE is being returned in 3 weeks, so they can deal with it. But, I have my C-Max Energi for another two years. I made a service appointment three weeks out, with the Field Service number in the service notes. I got a call a couple days later saying they "won't have the part" and "are just...

    Vehicle Health Report Not Uploading

    First time mine failed was when the car was paired with my wife's phone. It went through all the motions, but ended in a failure message. Paired and connected my phone, and it uploaded correctly. Changed back to hers, and it failed. Was curious why this was, so I updated my phone number to her...

    Post-Repair Door Handle Lock/Unlock Functionality

    Figured I'd ask y'all about this, because it's been bothering me. The driver's door window was broken out (on my C-Max, but, same doors), and the shop needed to take the door apart to clean it all up. When they put it back together, the Lock pad on the handle no longer works. Unlocking is fine...

    Stop Safely Now Warning

    Received my FFE back from "SSN" service recently, and figured I'd post the results. FYI: Build date is Feb 2013 Dropped off for service Saturday, August 8. Their "EV guy" wasn't in to start diagnostics until Aug 11. This is the same dealership where the service department has argued that a loud...

    recent leasing quote 2015 labor day

    Hard for me to compare directly, however, I can offer my own lease deal. White pearl, with leather -- $0 down, $310/month. Took sticker price, haggled down to the selling price, then threw in the $7500 rebate and calculated the lease from there. This was Black Friday 2013, so maybe there are...

    Stop Safely Now Warning

    Wow. I stop reading for a moment, and this has grown to 60 pages. Girlfriend experienced our first SSN warning in traffic coming home today. She said she "power cycled" three or four times before it was Ready to Drive again. I haven't read the previous five dozen pages yet, but here's a couple...

    Value Charge at Home working oddly/wrong.

    I've had similar hiccups. I also have a 240v 30a EVSE. Off-peak during the "Winter" months was 10PM-4PM. The software had a REALLY hard time if off-peak was set to be both before and after mid-night. It would either... 1) Not charge at all during the window 2) Say it would charge but take...

    Gift from Ford

    I received one of these by surprise yesterday. It's been just under 6 months since I took ownership. The box doesn't indicate a specific year, but the files on the drive specify FY 2013 (I have a FY 2014). File modification dates are from December 2013, after I leased mine; so they must still be...

    September Sales-110 Units/Trouble in Fordsville

    I ordered a Fit EV in late April 2013. Over a year later, I'm still waiting. :lol: I picked up the FFE in November, but they don't know that. Still want them to finally call so I can laugh at them and cancel.

    FFE short term memory

    +1 for dash illumination returning to full on start. ...unless the car has been off less than 5 minutes or so, then it returns to the previous level.

    Loud noise when using Go Times or AirCon while plugged in

    Sweet cutaway! Resolutions: On the matter of single-speed versus e-CVT: There was no agreement. He wouldn't back down from his stance the groaning noise when first starting off was the "CVT." Oh well, I'm not worried about it. Regarding the noise when using AC: They said it was the sound of...

    Loud noise when using Go Times or AirCon while plugged in

    Sweet. I mentioned this when I dropped it off this morning. I hope the service technician is more on-the-ball than the service writer. He kept trying to tell me "the noise was from the CVT." We went back and forth about e-CVT versus the single-speed gearbox, but he wouldn't have it. "There's no...
