My plug-in display with USB ports on the dash 12V socket has shown over 15V a couple of times when starting up the truck. Minimum lately has been about 12.5Vdc. Is not 15Vdc considered too high? I should probably stick in a voltmeter to double check when I see that.

https://fordauthority.com/2025/04/2023-ford-f-150-lightning-evs-recalled-over-battery-pack-issue/ But only 3 vehicles "built between November 23rd, 2022 and March 31st, 2023." Seems the build date range has changed from a previous notice "expands previous recall number 24V-144 ", which was...

I have 15K miles on the General Grabbers, 275/60 R20 116 load index. The wear pattern looks the same for all four tires. Also, it looks like I have been underinflating the tires at 42psi as the outer and inner channels (of the 4) show more wear than the center 2 channels. Any burning reason...

Seems like an old article, but with a little bit more on getting the NACS adapter going https://www.wired.com/story/ford-ev-charging-adapters-for-tesla-superchargers/

Nice protective 3D printed plastic caps for the Ford Tesla NACS charging adapter. Saw video of original maker using them at Reddit, but here is maker link: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1083051#profileId-1075240

***Update March 6, 2025, see comment #27, that shows 9 modules for both SR and ER, but... I think we should not be rushing to trust the AI large language models that are helping us to understand the universe based on this back and forth with ChatGPT. Of course, maybe if I paid into the program...

I rarely go off road, except for a couple of camping spots and do not usually show the Off-Road display parameters on the right side. I finally noticed it showing how the steering angle moved in the front of the picture while I was turning but stationary. There is also the degree of tilt...

Never noticed these lights staying on for any length of time before. Welcome lighting is turned Off. Keys laying 8 feet away on bench in front of truck. Also front light bar came on periodically during this time. Plus noticed center 12" display glowing. Truck is charging. Voltage sensor in...

Below is an email today from Electrify America...does this mean they will become competitive with Tesla? "Hi, We’d like to share an exciting recap of all that was accomplished in 2023. It was a pleasure supporting your electric journey this past year. More electric vehicle (EV) drivers across...

What update made the change in the color scheme going from mostly blue to mostly white for the dials for charge level and speed? [Update: @brucek2 & @idahospud point out that White indicates Sport mode!] What is with the jagged dips on the outside of the curves at 25% intervals for charge level...

How did October dates get above December, and where is Westfalen Weser Netz? How did my Lightning get to Germany from SoCal?

Not recalls, about 85! items so far, some obviously would not apply to the Lightning (emissions!, 8 inch screen, etc). Not sure how ordered. Why was not the TSB number provided? Is there a way to get such a list with #s? 230914 Technical Service Information, so far, for 2022 Ford F-150...

And they will track data using in vehicle telematics, also allow dropping loads to avoid power during peak costs. https://www.utilitydive.com/news/duke-energy-bmw-ford-gm-ev-charging-subscription-service/692281/ There is a link in the article to the Duke Energy press release with a slightly...

It is not a wear issue due to the driver's seat having more use. The passenger seat bottom bolster foam just seems to be a bit stiffer than the the driver's. I think I would like that extra firmness to hold my thigh in away from the driver's door and just give a feeling of being kept in place...

Hang in there, folks will be dissing your truck: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-ford-f150-electric-car-rainforest-damage/?cmpid=BBD022723_BIZ I wonder what other companies are doing for their raw materials?

For my XLT 312A SR it is not clear to me what is meant by Features and Settings if Features has settings like "Departure and Comfort" days/times, "Charge Settings", "Driver Assistance" settings, etc. And Settings has Features like Ford Assistant and Alexa. And why should there be two pages for...

Lots of drink holder spots, under the door speakers, good for small 16oz plastic bottles and then the drink/cup holders in the center console, front and back. Found 32oz ThermoFlask at Costco recently, 2 for about $25 (I cannot find this model anywhere on the internet) that fit snugly in the...

I think it was the plastic of a seatbelt buckle (the belt wrapped around a large telescope tube without being latched in) that rubbed the armrest on a bumpy road: The finish seems a bit fragile for a truck armrest. Anyone else experience this? This is a XLT, how tough are the other model...

If you can believe those darn environmentalists, California Utilities are making extra revenue on EVs that charge during Off-Peak hours, lowering rates for others. https://www.nrdc.org/sites/default/files/media-uploads/ev_impacts_december_2022_0.pdf Also, shorter article...
