After two weeks of troubleshooting they removed and replaced the SOBDM.
Secondary On-Board Diagnostic Control Module, primarily found in Ford electric vehicles like the Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning. This module functions as the onboard AC charger, controlling Level 1 and Level 2 charging...
A week ago on Friday night I plugged my 2022 F-150 Lightning Lariat ER into my Ford Level 2 charger as I normally do. The vehicle is set-up to charge overnight to take advantage of SDGE's low TOU rates.
Next morning when I checked my Ford Pass app my state of charge had not changed. The blue...
I'm having the same issue with a slight variation with In-Lane Repositioning and Lane Change assist.
I can toggle the slider for In-Lane Repositioning and it will turn blue for a couple of seconds then it will automatically toggle back to the off position.
The lane change assist will toggle to...
My Dad was a Ford Guy. No interest in GM or Chrysler and forget about those foreign cars.
The photo is a 1955 Ford with the rocker panels already starting to rust out (Buffalo winters were rough)
I'm sure that he would be proud that I'm driving a Ford F-150 Lightning.
Ford being FIRST seems to be irrelevant!
I ordered my adapter for my 2022 Lightning on 2/29/24 and my estimated ship date slips month for month and is now September 2024. (It started at June 2024)
My son took delivery of a Rivian R1S six months after I got my Lightning. He was notified that as...
Agreed. It is a major mod requiring additional hardware. But I would like to know the cost, because using the Tesla Supercharger network without hogging two stations would have value for the life of the vehicle.
With a symmetric design feature, the F-150 Lightning has a passenger side cosmetic charge port door. Could Ford add a second charge port that would be compatible with the Tesla NACS Supercharger cable?
It's main competitor, the Chevy Silverado EV was able to locate it's charge-port on the...
Had my tailgate fail about two weeks ago. It wouldn't open. Thought it might be a common problem and an easy fix. But it turn out it wasn't and took six days for my dealer to troubleshoot and fix the problem. They found that the top tailgate open / release actuators binding internally and...
Don't feel bad, I did the same thing in Santa Monica. (Didn't know there were two until I got into the parking structure for the wrong one!)
Oddly the "old" Supercharger in Mammoth is better suited to connect to the Lightning, with its pull-thru station design. But it is not the right V3. So I...
Thanks for reporting this issue. I'm planning a trip this summer from San Diego to Lake Tahoe and was going to take route 395. I was planning on using the "reliable" Tesla Superchargers exclusively and charging at Mammoth Lakes. With the elevation change and the Topaz Lake Superchargers not...
I agree, that is not a good option. My frame of reference was coastal Southern California. Which happens to be a dense market for Tesla Superchargers because of the number of Teslas on the roads here. I'm not trying to be pessimistic, I'm reporting on the reality that I found.
I was really excited when Tesla and Ford announced that Ford EVs would soon be eligible to use Tesla Superchargers. At the end of February it became a reality when I was able to order my adapter from Ford.
I had previously owned a Tesla X and frequently roadtripped on Tesla’s reliable...
