Why am I not surprised?! 😛

Coolant question: I keep seeing threads mentioning coolant leaks, and subsequent serious HV battery problems (leading to HV battery failure, car bricked...). Please tell me more! Is this coolant the "Coolant Reservoir" that can be checked under the hood (see my attached image below from my...

We have a 2017, now with 51,771 miles on it. Currently around 27.3 kWh. Original HV battery, we bought the car new (in late 2017), and have been the only owners.

There can’t be too many Ford Ranger EVs and Ford Focus Electrics driving around—it would have been a nice gesture for Farley to include us, as a nod to the history of EVs at Ford!!

Interesting…this is in upper WY, not near any big urban areas (meaning, charging stations!) I can only guess they get these electric Focuses through auctions?

I’d like to learn how to see this cell data—could someone point me to a thread that has more/specific info on the how to, and what equipment is needed? I do have a ScanGauge, which I got “programmed” by Linear Logic to work specifically with our EFF. Thanks!

Our experience, too. Heater & defroster are noticeable energy draws. We tend to use the heated seats if reasonable, seems like less of an energy draw. Interestingly (and we’re in a very hot & humid summers area) the A/C (on full chilly blast!) does not seem to give nearly the energy hit as...

We have a 2017 Electric Ford Focus with 51,050 miles on it. Did a full run down through driving & using the heat (til the car said it was shutting off) and got 27.3 kWh. We bought the car new (in late 2017), and have been the only owners. It is what passes for winter here ;) so we got 79.8...

So, your 2014 Focus was still under the “8 years or 100,000 miles” warranty, but Ford wouldn’t cover any repairs or buyout?😳

I just realized my above reply doesn’t particularly belong in a New Tires thread 😝 but I’m not sure how to move it!

This isn’t the first place I’ve seen mention of getting rid of the EFF at/just before 8 years, because of the battery warranty. On one level, I understand, because a replacement battery pack is so expensive. Still—what is the data on this? Does every EFF battery pack fail just after 8 years...

I have tire pressure warning, too. But I’m not counting on that staying :shock:

Same experience as KP19, above :? Too bad, I was hoping I’d keep the nice new features….I guess Ford is just pushing us to the periphery…

Our 2017 Electric Ford Focus finally got it’s 4G modem upgrade this May 2023. So far, so good. Can now use FordPass—have not gotten that message referenced above. Charging scheduling is very nice to have back, as is remote start. We have not allowed any software updates mainly because we are...

Thank you! From owner.ford.com it looks like there is an update. Currently our Focus is SYNC version 3.0.18025, and there is an update to take it to 3.0.20204 On owner.ford.com it asks "How do you want to install updates" with the options being WiFi, USB Drive, or Find a Dealer. So I can do...

We just got our Focus back from the dealer, it now has (finally!) a 4G modem. We were able to see this vehicle in the FordPass app, so far, so good. I can see Charge level, Est distance to empty, Charge log, & My EV driving. We are going to try to set up preferred charge times. My question is...

I went ahead and put in the VIN for my Focus in FordPass--it took it, and a little representation of my Focus appears, but there is, of course, no connectivity yet (have not picked up the Focus yet). With my truck, the updates are to "Ford Power-Up", with a version number such as 4.2.4. Also...

I've been reading the various posts here about the 3G->4G modem swap (Customer Satisfaction Program 21B09) I have been trying since my first Ford letter (Nov 2021) to get it done, and FINALLY the part is in, and my Focus is at the dealer, awaiting the swap. I already have/use FordPass for...

I'm keeping this in mind :D I also have a 2017, and its range has fallen a bit, but still over 100 miles range when charged fully. But I've wondered about Ford & their HV battery warranty!

I'm still waiting for my dealer to even get the 4G modem, it's been an ordeal :? The dealer says that the 4G modem has been "ordered" but that they are delayed due to "chip issues".....sigh..... I was told repeatedly that Ford will still cover the installation, but that remains to be seen, of...
