I've seen one of the extension cable testers post a photo of his test unit on Reddit - charging a Rivian R1S. Things look good so far; we just need a release date.
I can't wait to get one - not backing-in is annoying.
From what I recall, it is the factor of excess heat that will shorten battery life rather than excessive loads (which is a function of heat generation). With a good thermal management system and robust cooling regimes the battery pack will last a very long time.
I recall one study that found...
Yeah and I thought that was useful albeit a temporary workaround solution. If I recall correctly, you could even look up Tesla Superchargers via the "Public Charging" app despite not being able to do so via the navigation screen.
My hope is that this is a one step back, two steps forward...
I don't understand what this change implies.
We should just be able to search or navigate chargers in the navigation screen just like Tesla. This kind of necessary copying shouldn't be difficult.
I wanted to confirm, is the stated rating of 100lbs the total static or dynamic load rating of the rack when cross bars are used?
If so, I think this may eliminate roof top tents as a use case.
I noticed that PAAK isn't as responsive in the past 2-weeks or so - something must have changed on the OS side (Android) as I've been on Ford Pass V5.16 for nearly a month; PAAK had been working extremely well for me - probably 100% call success rate whenever I touch the door handles.
As for...
My moonroof leaked a few months ago after a heavy snowstorm and a large accumulation of snow on the roof of the cab / moonroof. After clearing the moonroof of snow and driving away, water leaked through the front-passenger ceiling speaker.
My Advisor indicated that rather than being due to a...
So how does this BYD solution compare to MCS and is it market-ready?
MCS has max voltage and current of 1,250V and 3,000A respectively with a designed output of 3.75MW.
I just checked my VIN on my Ford Account and on the Ford Support page, which didn't turn up anything. Are these sources up-to-date as of right now?
I'm in Canada and my build was in February 2024.
If you won't blink at the expense, go for it. All of my passengers love the massage-ventilated seats and my business partner who has a Lariat was impressed by the Platinum interior.
I ended up swapping out the 22" for 18" winters and will do the same for my summer set.
I got this update this afternoon while my truck was in for the 24S76 Recall. I don't know if it was coincidental that I got an update because the truck was at the dealer.
Not on early access program (EAP) and still on SYNC 10.1.0 (from October 2024).
From thee 5 conditions listed in the OP, I don't think I've experienced any of them. Could I assume that I don't need to pursue this TSB?
Mine is a 2024 Platinum.
If you want to do a better test of this, are you able to keep the running board deployed for a planned test loop and do a second one with them retracted?
It's not the same comparing with a pair of fixed running boards but it's much closer. Alternatively you could just take 3D images of a...
You 2022 - 2023 guys are lucky to get this. I guess I'll just go month-to-month when most of my road trips happen outside of wintertime. The standard ADAS is really annoying with all of the grannies.
My experience is different from yours. I've accidentally left my PAAK-enabled phone in my truck twice so far and in both instances, the truck (thankfully) did not lock - as the mirrors didn't fold and I was able to open any of the doors. Mind you, in these instances the only credential I'm...
On the software side, companies will normally price in ongoing support for a certain period or ongoing as a product scales and as priorities or regulatory requirements change. I wouldn't expect any less from Ford to have figured this out when they stood up the team.
Similar to the other same-day announcement from @Ford Motor Company, these features are going across all model years of the Lightning correct?
My initial thought that there isn't any hardware limitations so it would be efforts of firmware and software. Can you guys please clarify in your...
Thanks @Ford Motor Company for the great news and this is a much needed feature.
I wish there was a bit more clarity on the messaging on availability and timing. I understand that 2025 model year Lightnings will get this right out of the gate, but what about 2022 to 2024 model years?
I'd be...
I sent A2Z an e-mail requesting to be a part of the mentioned pilot program for the NACS DC extension cord. No response yet but in my experience they may take a few days to respond.
