Thank you!

Great pictures. This view is from what angle?

The air conditioning smells a bit musty when I start it and on other cars that's meant that the drain line under the air conditioning evaporator clogged and there's some residual condensation in the box. On every other car I put it on the lift and there's a tube or a drain hole staring me in...

The estimated range is based on some combination of the last usage rate and the current settings. Drive the car hard before shutdown and it will look low at startup, as well as the reverse. Startup and turn the heat on, and the estimated range will drop instantly. Once you start driving around...

My car does this. The initial power drain to fire up the air conditioning compressor and pressurize the system is high, then shortly goes down to a very low number as the compressor only cycles on and off to maintain pressure. My GOM reading has wild fluctuations when cabin temperature control...

Download the owner's manual from the Ford site and it will answer these questions and many more.

No. Hot coolant expands.

Used vehicles are going to Jordan.

The car won't cool the cabin until the battery is happy, so you'll get warm air if you leave it on. But there's no indicator the battery is happy, so you'll never know when it's ready for you to turn the air conditioning on.

In hot weather, the cooling system prioritizes cooling the HV battery before cooling the cabin. So the air conditioning compressor is running, but it's not your turn to get cold yet. After the battery temp is at a manageable level, cold air is diverted to you. This is normal.

The battery is covered if it fails or faults. If it degrades slowly, that's on you. Ford is specific in the warranty. And the number earlier is 110 MPGE, which is some EPA mathematical conversion to relate cost per mile to a gas car using numbers that may not be valid for you. The range number...

Ford executives in 2022: "Seriously? We once made an ELECTRIC Focus?"

How's the battery holding up at 85K?

The battery and powertrain have a 8 year,100 K mile warranty, but not against degradation on the battery. Battery degradation depends on so many factors that any individual's experience isn't much of a barometer. Basically, the more and harder you work any battery, the more capacity it loses...

Every concern you have is valid for an FFE. On extremely hot Florida days, the AC system first prioritizes battery temperature management. Once that is met, I can get cold air. It takes two or three minutes. Once that is done the AC works as well as any conventional car. However, if you remote...

No. Mine starts with 12 V all the time.

This sounds totally bogus.

It is supposed to have built in thermal protection. Functionality is the same.

EVSE Update: While there are some EVSE in the system, those are not for the recall. EVSE for the recall will be available "in the first quarter of 2019." Are my expectations high? Well, the postcard I got last year said they'd be ready in December 2018. We'll see.

I went to the dealer yesterday about the recall since the Ford mailer said new cables would be available in December. The parts department said there were some in general inventory, but the recall order process might run through a different, more timne consuming channel. At least I have the...
