Anyone else having problems with departure times not updating or not working? I had turned off departure times a few weeks ago, maybe over a month, but it keeps resetting itself and i’ll find my truck preconditioning in the morning again, i turn it departure times, then it happens again. Now it...

In the last couple of weeks I've consistently run into this issue where the audio for Carplay never initializes and I don't get any sound (but carplay is otherwise working normally). If I switch to another input, like radio, there is audio output so it's not the audio for the entire SYNC system...

Just curious if anyone is seeing this. I figured it might happen with the very cold weather we’re having. This morning the app said “preparing to drive” even though there was no departure time set. I’m assuming it was doing some unscheduled preconditioning. It was only about 15 degrees at the...

Both of the EA chargers that i frequent are showing a message that they are limiting charging rate for a “coming update”. This has been going in for two weeks. The stations are charging around 60kW. Anyone else seeng this? Considering the lack of high speed charging options around here this...

Any time you see a new DCFC in NH/ME/VT post it here. I just saw that there are two Volta 50kW CCS chargers open (or about to open, they've been installed since at least May) in Tilton, NH at the Tanger outlets. Volta uses a free charging model that is paid for by advertising on the pedestal...

There's a two plug Chargepoint 62.5kW pedestal nearby that's been sitting for months (looks completely installed) waiting to be opened. I've been excited about that one because it's the only DCFC station that I can recall being installed in my area in the last year. Meanwhile, a 12 stall...

Why is it so complicated to figure out when the damn truck will charge or stop charging? Seems like no matter what i do the truck does something different than expected. Last night i plugged in at a DCFC and set the one time limit to 80%. The truck notified me when it reached 80% BUT KEPT...

I've got an interesting situation where I try not to charge at home because electric rates are very high here and I can charge for free at work. I've started plugging in my truck at home so I can precondition in the morning but I don't want it to charge...so I immediately tell it to stop after...

I just noticed that this is the message you get when you start the Lightning from an Apple Watch. It’s a shame that the Apple Watch app is such an afterthought. It could easily be made very useful.

In recent weeks it’s been colder here in the northeast with many mornings in the 20s. I’ve noticed that when my SoC gets below 50% that i’ve been seeing power reduction when i leave in the morning. Usually reduced to 85-95%. Not a huge deal. I mostly keep the truck charged between 50% and...

For those who like to recreate in the NH White Mtns you’ve probably noticed that the public charging infrastructure is essentially zero. Even worse than VT and ME, which are bad as well. The good news is NH just approved a new EV infrastructure plan. The bad news is it doesn’t prescribe...

I thought of this while driving yesterday and i think it would an outstanding improvement to the climate controls usability on the 15” screen. The problem many people complain about is the amount of attention it takes to work the slider (after already having to hit the function icon) while...

Yesterday I noticed that the plastic trim piece between the bumper and front quarter panels doesn't quite match. After looking at it more closely it has me wondering if they used an AMB trim piece by accident. I just noticed it after a couple of weeks so it's not obvious in passing but I got...

I had thought early on that there was no way to limit current from the app but when I set mine up yesterady I did see that you can limit charge current anywhere from 6A to 80A. Maybe I'm remembering incorrectly and this was always available but either way it's a very nice feature to have. My...

I got my FCSP installed yesterday and when I went to connect to it via the setup app the attempt timed out. I was able to see the FCSP SSID and enter the password to connect to the FCSP's network but in the connection process in the app there was some type of problem and it didn't "connect"...

One of the most surprising things to me, so far, is how quiet the cabin is at high speed. I'm not going to say how high...but *high*. I know all the reviewers said it was quiet but I still didn't expect it to be this quiet. I've never owned a Mercedes S class, so maybe this is normal for high...

Thus far I've charged 4 times at an EA 350kW pedestal, this is what has happened: 1.) Manchester, NH: Immediately ramped to 165kW, within 3-4 minutes the station limited to 35kW (person in an EV6 plugged in shortly after me and was limited to 70kW). Moved to a 150kW pedestal, that steadily...

Cuz it’s really annoying.

So, I used the in-car Nav on my trip from Boston to DC Saturday. I just went with what it told me to see what it was like. Generally, it was OK. The second charge stop it gave me was quite far from the highway (6.8 miles) when there were many other potential stations right off the highway in...
