Whit - I have a similar problem. My range has gotten very low. After 8500 miles of driving I am only showing 52-54 miles of range. That being said... I use the enhanced trip meter for all of my driving. If I average 250 watts per mile I can still get the 80 miles of range, no matter what...

Hocus - I don't understand this.... "Configure MyView" do you mean in the car on the driver's display, or on the dashboard in the touch screen. "Read about your budget/cup and add average arrows.) Again are you talking about the battery images with the 5 min intervals? What am I missing...

The 2013 includes all of the 2012 features accept: Rain sensing windshield wipers Remote control garage door opener Auto glare eliminating rear mirror Why the hell they eliminated these items on a $33k compact auto is beyond me...... So if you can find a 2012 you will get a better car.....

Correctomondo... I removed, checked it with a meter, found it to be good and simply returned it to the board. Look in the service manual to find the location of F1 on the board.

Thanks to the search engine I have resolved this problem. I removed and replaced the #1, 5 amp fuse, in the left rear fender fuse box and voila, it is fixed. In the future I'll do a little more research before posting. Thanks, team FFE!!!!

I am having a problem connecting with My Ford Mobile. It has not updated in "4 days and 15 hours". It also states it is "Unable to connect with car". Anyone else out there with a similar problem? Anyone with a solution?

Marc, Look at the right hand dash display after you turn the car off and the display changes. It will offer two choices - "Charge Now" or "Value Charge". You can push the right hand up or down button and change the scheduled charge. If you have set your value charging in MyFord Mobile to...

Marc, Glad to hear you have your car back!!! All of your comments are relative to things I have experienced, but, they should not be happening now. It isn't hot enough to run the AC while charging or for it to have the "Warm weather, plug in now message". The "wrench warning" while...

Where??? I do not see a kwh display when the battery is freshly charged. Do you mean the kWh hours used when you look at the trip meter after traveling a specific distance? I wish it did have a kWh display you could see when you get in the car, all I see is a battery gauge which tells me XX...

Is it just me or are these images being blocked on everyone's computer??? Not good Marc on these downgrades of the 2013... For $34,000.00 you should be getting a very well equipped compact car. How foolish Ford.....

When the battery was at 30 miles and -3 surplus I had approximently 40 more miles to go. This is the only time I ended up in the very low battery range (10 miles or less). I ended up at my destination with 7 miles on the battery and it showed +5 surplus. (Remember the battery shows how many...

I have made little progress on this topic. #1) There does not appear to be any instrument that easily measures the capacity of the battery after charging. #2) The alternative is doing some kind of measurements based upon driving a set distance with set parameters of Temperature, Terrain and...

Marc, Beautiful car and nice looking dealership, the only thing I can't quite understand is how you were able to win over such a beautiful bride :D Good luck with the car - Wood

I want to find a way to keep track of the life of my battery. I received my auto on 5/29/2012 and have clocked 5500 miles. MyFord Mobile and the dashboard information do not seem to provide an accurate indication of the battery charge. Despite the widespread believe that the electric auto...

Absolutely they do. It is actually a Ford motor company lease. I was offered the lease back in May, but declined. I only know about Schlutz Ford in Nanuet, NY. 845-624-3600. I bought my car on a long distance purchase. They offered to arrange shipping, however, I drove it home. They have...

redEV - I couldn't agree more with your rational on the price and "unexpected benefits". Each of us develops our own rational and for us the car makes absolute sense. igh - Price is a killer for the average purchaser of the auto. Ask any Ford sales person. Furthering the reasons for slow...

Leave it to a "techie" to figure out the rational... Thanks Marc! I could not understand why Drive slowed the car down so much. It is almost dangerous. So both Drive and Low are forms of regen. Neutral is sweet. The car justs glides along... I also use it to help pull up to lights or...

:D :D I could not resist answering my own post.... I called my salesperson up at the dealership where I purchased the FFE. It is all of the above. He told me: 1. Customers do not even know about the electric FFE. Lack of advertising. 2. Customers who are purchasing a Focus are price...

Sly, thanks for the Detroit Free Press article. 38 FFEs sold in July plus 1 in Canada. It is early and we are early adoptors, but... The Electric Vehicle sales are off to a very slow start. I sure would love company :!: I written that my car is a perfect fit for my life and I actually...

I now have 3500+ miles on my FFE. For most of my life I have driven a variety of manual transmissions and enjoy the driving control a transmission provides. Technically I do not know how this transmission operates. I read it is not a transmission but a direct drive with some kind of electric...
