Just checking to see if there is any interest on the forum in a 2012 Focus Electric for around $22,000. The car is a pristine (no dents, dings or issues) white platinum version with beige leather. I've added a full front clip paint protection film and window tinting otherwise its stock. If the...

I have had a GE Wattstation for about one year and it has worked without any issues up until this week. I came home and plugged in as usual, but the charging process did not initiate. The unit had no lights, even though it did have power. I called GE and they were very accommodating and had a...

This morning when I got to work, I powered down the car as usual and noticed that the radio did not turn off when the door was opened. I cycled the power several times with the same result. Needing to get to work, my first thought was to just turn off all other accessories and head out. Turns...

I keep a log of my daily driving results with the FFE. Since new, I have measured the power consumed by the EVSE circuit and tracked it in a spreadsheet. More recently, I've been noting the after drive information from the trip meter in the car. One thing I have noticed is that the number of...

If you use an iPhone that has been updated to iOS6, don't update to the new version of the MyFord Mobile application. The new version (1.1, August 17th release) does not work with iOS6. The application will start and then just go to a blank screen and never launch. There are several reports...

I keep a detailed daily mileage and charging log on both of my cars (Chevy Volt and FFE). I have found the reporting of mileage on the myfordmobile.com site to be inaccurate. The individual trip reporting number gets truncated (rather than properly rounded or reporting a fractional mile) for...

My use of the rear hatch area will eventually lead to wear of the OEM covering since it is a felt-like material instead of carpeting. I found a rubber mat that is supposed to be sized to fit on top of the Focus Electric's cargo organizer from Rubbertite. I'll post some photos of it when it...

One quirk I've found on the FFE is that when the car has finished charging but remains plugged in it will initiate a short charge cycle whenever a door or the hatch is opened. I've got no idea why opening a door would necessitate starting a charge. It will do it repeatedly, each time a door is...

After charging today, my car now shows a predicted range of 103 miles! The range prediction figure has been generally on the rise since I got the car two weeks ago, starting at around 75 miles. What are others seeing?

My car notified me today when I started it up to leave work that "It's Hot Outside... Plug Vehicle in When Not in Use". We are having an early hot spell in KC and it was around the century mark on the thermometer. It's supposed to be about the same every day for the next week - this is June...

The specifications for the FFE indicate that the battery capacity is 23 kW-h. I have also seen reports that the car can actually use about 85% of the battery capacity in order to not cause damage (for comparison, Nissan Leaf is reported to use 87.5%). Does anyone know if the 23 kW-h figure...

Show us your tinted Focus Electric...Here's mine back from the tinter today. This is a 20% tint all around, the direct sun photo makes it look darker than it really is. I also didn't like the size of the "ELECTRIC" badge on the doors, so removed them...

Could anyone who has received their Focus Electric help me out? My car has a bumper paint problem that was discovered during installation of a clear bra that needs to be fixed before I can get the bra put on the car. When I go talk to Ford about the paint issue I want to cover another topic if...

Curiosity got the better of me, so I took off the foam cover in the engine compartment to see underneath: http://www.flickr.com/photos/79851664@N08/7411030896/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/79851664@N08/7411032576/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/79851664@N08/7411031814/
