Mine's been fine, but others have reported stuff like this.

Are you still under warranty? Take it to the dealer.

I bought it used at a ford dealer. It's a certified ford but I don't know if it still has warrantee for that

What year is it, and how many miles?

Might still be under it's 3 year warranty. Check fast!

Also, you can purchase a Ford ESP warranty. They aren't too expensive for the FFE

Is it charging correctly or is it just the ring display. Almost looks like a loose connection.

Mine is doing the same thing. Charges fine. The dealer ordered a new one under the COPO warranty as a certified Ford.

It charges correctly. Everything is fine. Just the port lightning that does that

Yes I'll check once I take it to service. I don't really want to ask the dealers that sold it to because they were kinda mean when I got the car

If you bought it certified, it should have an extra 12 month/12,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty. Make sure you don't wait too long before it expires.

 

[damania]

if it's out of warranty just use your wifi app to see how many miles of range you have or go inside and turn on the dash

What's COPO warranty?

Sorry, typo. Certified Pre-Owned.

From the Warranty Guide

Your vehicle’s unique hybrid / electric components are covered during
the Hybrid / Electric Unique Component Coverage, which lasts for eight
years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
•
The following Focus Electric unique parts are covered during this
extended coverage period: high-voltage battery packs, high voltage
charger, DC/DC convertor, Electric Drive Module Assembly (includes
electric motor and gearbox), trans range and charge cord.

I would argue if needed that the charging port is part of the High Voltage Charger or Charge Cord and should be covered as any other unique Focus Electric parts.

I lost a quadrant on the charge ring, Ford specifically said that it's like the fuel gauge and only covered by the 36mo bumper to bumper. Bought a 2012 used, so they denied the claim. I was within the 30 days from Carmax, so they are covering it.

Now the battery heater cooler pump that went out, I am having Carmax yell at the local Ford dealer on that one. That is specifically mentioned in the warranty for 8y/100k

I took it to the dealer. I still had some factory warrantee besides the 10year 100K miles so they are fixing it at no charge but I had to leave my FFE on Friday and I won't get it back until Monday or Tuesday

If you plan on keeping the car awhile, you should give some serious consideration for a Ford Extended Warranty.

Paid $740 (paid a tad extra for the first day rental option) for my 8 year, 48,000 mile, no deductible Ford ESP.

The problem with that is that they charge me $1500 at the dealer I got it from

It's too much for me
