It's not. And thank you for documenting what you experienced - what a nightmare scenario. Thankfully looks like you found a workaround and documented the whole thing for us. How can I tell I've got the same thing draining my 12v? I do have a multimeter. I've had this issue for a year and...

So, you just took it to them because the wrench appeared and got a new battery? Did you have battery drain or anything else noticeably wrong? I thought the wrench was just a check engine light (not to be trusted).

Wondering what the biggest culprits of this common issue are and how to properly diagnose. I suspect my Ford service center will not be willing to diagnose the issue unless they actually see/experience it happening. Is there a highly common culprit? Do I need to do the painstaking multimeter...

The 12v accessory battery in my '14 FFE died again last week (second time in the last year). I've heard Ford might be able to fix this but I don't want to be caught stranded again. Could someone suggest a decent plug-in 12v battery charger (maybe via link to one on Amazon) ? Also, a...

Does anyone know? My FFE is four years old, so it seems fitting the battery might just be low, but it's doing this now with increasing frequency. Anyone by chance know how to open/replace the battery? I did notice there's a small switch/lever on the back but it doesn't seem to do anything...

I'm moving soon and need to have a charger installed at my new place (outdoors). Which make/model of charger are people highly recommending these days? I have a '14 FFE.

Norm, you and me both. Hopefully a tinkerer can figure that out. I'm sure there's some $$ to be made for whoever does.

I also just switched to the Ventus V12 evo2 after putting almost 20k on the stock Energy Savers. Car is much more surefooted now - and doesn't 'hunt' on uneven pavement. Ride comfort and noise seems about the same. Surprisingly, I haven't noticed any loss in range (I do 50/50 Hwy/City). Best...

Mine is platinum white and I'm debating whether to do this. Much different look on a black or grey FFE. Anyone know how difficult it would be to 'peel' it off if it doesn't look good? Have never used this stuff before.

Keith, would you mind posting a picture of the result? The picture on the previous page was not of a Focus Electric grill, rather, was a traditional gas-powered Focus. The Electric's grill is much more narrow and not as aggressive looking.

I've heard they wreak havoc on your suspension, especially a less beefy suspension that I suspect the FFE has. What about wheels with a different offset? Not sure if that has the same effect on suspension but can achieve the same look while being a better-looking wheel than stock.

Ok good to know - but how do I do a 'master reset' ?

Just had the 2G modem replaced with the 3G and ever since, my car doesn't warm up in the morning (I have it set for 8AM). Also, I keep getting text message alerts around 9:12am saying my car isn't plugged in for my scheduled charge to begin. But my value charge session is scheduled for around...

Now being told the main water pump (which cools the battery(ies) is bad. And they're on backorder.

I wondered the exact same thing ;-)

Well, after several days of failed charge attempts, a Ford service rep was on site yesterday and they said after spending two hours with the car he found an issue. (The dealer service rep said Ford employees have access to more detailed information/logs than the dealer's technicians.) Ford...

It happens with all chargers. Have tried several fast chargers and even the 110v from the cable that came with the car. I'm still within two years, which I thought was the cut off. I imagine it's a tedious process but hopefully it will pale in comparison to all the phone calls and logging...

My saga continues. It's been over 30 days at the dealer service center and no solution. In fact, they refuse to believe there's an issue even though I have detailed logs of every charge attempt and failure report (from MFM via text message). I think my only option at this point is to file a...

I just checked for Georgia and it appears this would also be a slam dunk here. Sounds like the first step is to submit a repurchase or replace request to Ford. Or should I get an attorney first? Any suggestions?

Yes to all of the above except I doubt it would be considered a "serious safety defect".
