    Stop Safely Now Warning

    Yeah, I called the dealer, they said bring it in, of course. I will await another repeat offense before wasting more of my time with this.

    Charging cord

    Just ran across this from an advertisement: http://evsolutions.avinc.com/turbocord?gclid=CN6TxNiixbwCFXNp7AodYUUA5w 240 Charge cord version plugs directly into your house 240. No wall mount station. No installation. $599. Seems a LOT cheaper and easier than the full wall installation...

    "Stop Safely Now" recall fix

    This might be a duplicate post, but couldn't find anything on this... Just last Saturday, I spent the time to go to the dealer and have the "Stop Safely Now" recall notice taken care of, as well as the door beep issue (Really, a recall for a door beep?!). After a few hours I picked up the car...

    Baltimore area lease

    A little late on the response for you possibly, but what annual mileage is the lease? You would need a 15k/year mileage lease for your 48 mile round trip commute. 15k/year gives you 41 miles per day. I pay $362/month for a 15k lease in San Francisco Bay Area. It's a .25% lease rate. Love...

    Reverse SSN (Stop Safely Now) Issue

    I looked all over the forums and couldn't find people with this version of the Stop Safely Now issue: Whether freshly started, or on the parking end of a trip, when in reverse, and pressing the gas, the 'transmission' seems to POP out of reverse and instantly gives me the SSN warning. The...

    LEAF owner, considering FFE

    The FFE is a MUCH better car than the LEAF. I looked at both, and kept my masculinity in check with the FFE. Enough said. All electric cars + heater = range suck. All electric cars + cold = range suck Basically, range I have received: Cold Weather + Heater = 50ish range Using heater in...

    FORD, MARKET THE ELECTRONS OUT OF THE FFE PLEASE!

    Dear Ford, Please start marketing the FFE in a professional fashion, or at all. Everyone that sees this car loves it. I talk about it all the time. I love it for the San Francisco Bay Area. It drives and rides better than the Leaf because it's a solid car, not super light material all over...

    How do I achieve maximum Range?

    Two types of range here, the true range, and the 'estimated' range. Some people seem to think the 'estimated' range by the range computer is accurate. 1. Range computer: It's accurate, but makes assumptions for the long term based on the short term. Meaning, if I have 10 miles of range...

    FFE Tint Thread

    Pictures of my white FFE with tinting: I went with full black on all the back. Then a 80% (let's 80% of the light through) on the front windows. Nothing on the windshield. The 80% in CA is illegal, but slight enough that I shouldn't get pulled for it. The back is great. Super hard to...

    Tires

    If you own the FFE, you own some pretty silly 'eco' tires. Sure, they get me around. They make driving more fun because they don't excel at anything, so the thresholds for sliding are lower. To me, more fun. They paw at the ground or any loose ground cover like a cat on a polished wooden...

    Pros and Cons

    Pros and Cons: New to the FFE, and this board. Lots of great info, and I used much of it to make my final decision to lease a 2013 white FFE. I have had it two weeks now and love it. In that period I have noticed the following Pros and Cons based on what prospective buyers post as well as my...
