Sorry I didn't reply to this earlier, but I have not been on the forums in a while.
Yes I had that problem. Had to take it to a certified EV dealer to get it repaired correctly. It has worked fine since it was replaced.
I suspected it was some sort of overheating problem when my wrench...
I bought my FFE new in November of 2014. I have 25,000 miles on it in that time. The other day I was driving home in the rain (not the first time I have driven the car in the rain), and the wipers went from being in "low" to intermittent WITHOUT me touching the control stalk. Luckily I have...
Just had my first experience with this yesterday. Took it to the dealer when I finally got it going. They just called and gave the SSM number which got me to this thread. Still no solution. But I can confirm that I did hear that click that sefs mentioned when I waited long enough before the...
Here are all three pictures:

Black Edition Wheels
Plasti-Dip Black Edition
Sorry for the quality of the last picture. (But it is back to Oxford White WhattsUp! 8-) )
I couldn't have two cars with the same wheels (FFE and CMax Hybrid). So I was trolling Craigslist and caught a set of Focus Wheels off a Black Edition. Here are the before and after.
I have to say, I am not liking them 100%, so I am in the process of coating them in black plasti-dip. Will...
Here is my story. Wife wanted to try a new restaurant. She said it was 37 miles away. I thought, 74 miles round trip, the Focus can do that.
Problem 1: When I put the destination in the Nav, the restaurant was actually 40 miles away. Surplus listed the round trip at +3, not good. But we...
Although I do not post a lot here, I use this forum (along with some of the blogs from its members) as a great source of information. I have done research on this question so forgive me if I missed the answer somewhere ...
I have a 30 mile (one way) commute to work. I am lucky enough to be...
That should not be normal, HOWEVER, I have found that when you first connect a phone (or usb drive) to sync, the system will be slow as it downloads your phonebook (or indexes the usb drive). But all controls should work, just lagging.
With my 2014 FFE the charge stations are from Sirius and a 5 year subscription comes standard with the car. My trial Sirius subscription shows:

Mine works fine. Although, once I found the color I liked, I have never changed it. Kind of set and forget.
The controls in the overhead console don't change the colors?
I bought my FFE in November of 2014 and I was disappointed to find out that it came with an A4 card (even though the A5 was already out). I purchased two A5 cards on EBay for ~$80 delivered for both (I have a 2013 CMax that has a A4 card also). Installation was a breeze, just removed the old...
Thanks!!! I read through it. Basically the jest of the thread is that this is normal. Like the trip computer in my CMax, the calculations might be off slightly AND the lower temps (even though the battery has TMS) effect battery capacity. It should go back to what I think of as "normal" when...
I'm new and I did search for this issue before posting (I apologize if I missed it somewhere).
The last two days my FFE seems to have lost battery capacity. I am able to charge at work and get a full charge before I leave everyday. Yesterday, I got home and the MFT screen said I was at 38%...
