Yes, but we will probably never know the whole story. Could be a simple case of the driver hitting the wrong pedal with all the safety settings off. If the adaptive cruise was turned off and emergency braking was turned off and cruise was set and the resume button was pressed inadvertently...

.... unless he/she had it turned off.

Several times, my shifter went out of whack and didn't line up with the detents. Not sure why but for a couple of weeks, it was quite annoying to get into the correct gear and I'd have to nudge it to get into reverse. The problem went away so I figured it was a software bug and not a hardware...

I will have to give this a try. If you are touching (or close to) the inside handle sensor in any way, the lock button will not work and the lights will flash. It seems the inside handle touch sensor takes precedence, hence why @shutterbug's hand wave may work better. Sometimes I give up and...

Awesome, thx. I know there is a bit of risk with Aliexpress and appreciate the link.

@invertedspear called it out. You need to lubricate and seal the moving hinges on the running boards. I've had the retractables on my 2018 and now on my 2023 Lightning and they required maintenance at least yearly. If squeaking, you may want to use penetrating oil first to clear out the...

Which one did you order? I want to get one for myself but not sure which one will work.

It sounds like corrupted location profiles. An update a few months back corrupted mine and it did whacky things. If the location profiles are intact and it thinks it is outside of the location profile GPS area it should start charging right away. I'd follow @TaxmanHog's direction and delete...

You might also check the time/timezone settings on the Emporia and the truck. An update a few weeks back took out the settings on my truck and turned off the automatic time set feature. I had to turn it back on to get back on schedule. Perhaps the Emporia has similar time/timezone settings...

I believe the gateway module is behind the rear seats. It would likely be a quick physical change but there may be a series of updates that needs to happen to activate it. I expect they are a bit nervous about giving you a timeline due to the length of time it can take to get through the...

It's odd that you don't have a "Charge to 100%" option. That would seem to be the EVSE telling the truck not to charge. Do you have any settings in your Emporia charger that would limit when the truck can charge? Maybe reset the Emporia EVSE back to factory settings and see if it works then...

I don't have that much faith in the range calculator in NAV and even less faith in the GOM ;-). In theory, it should work that way after the truck adjusts to the new "driving" conditions. In practice, I'm not sure it will but let us know how it does. I think you can correct the...

I've had this happen a few times in the last 18 months. In most cases, I've reset the EVSE to clear it's brains (breaker off-on or unplug re-plug). That usually solves it. It was likely the communication module on the EVSE was hung up. Try cleaning your contact socket/pins on the truck and...

The hit probably isn't as bad as it seems. About 8.4% of the apparent range hit is the tire size. You'll cover more ground for every rotation but that won't show on your gauges unless you do a speedo/odometer correction. that probably means you are 15-16% actual range hit primarily from the...

I've used CarPlay for over a year occasionally needing to toggle off/on in iOS settings but then it stopped connecting wirelessly altogether. I can still connect by wire but it's frustrating that I can't connect wirelessly anymore. I've done the "Forget Device" thing and removed the phone from...

The display is only important if you are doing serious off-roading. It can be quite useful in those situations. The steering angle is useful in really deep snow. Otherwise, it's just a cool gadget the truck can show since it has all of the sensors for stability control anyway.

When planning a flight we plan for our destination and an alternative should the destination be untenable.... I've simply transferred that method to driving EVs. I plan to stop a bit earlier with a known backup plan that I can still reach. It's happened twice in 20 months where my chargers...

Well worth the investment. I've had both SE and HD versions. SE is awesome and easy to take on/off with one person. HD is a fair bit heavier and one person can still take it on/off. The panels are about 50lbs each. It can carry 1600lbs on top. There are two minor advantages of the HD -...

You can see your SOH go up in some cases. If you charge to 100%, drive down to about 10-20% and L2 charge to above 80% again, it will balance the pack a bit and recalculate the health based on the more accurate numbers. This can result in SOH increasing because your pack actually improves...

In my case, it just snapped back onto the clip when I used it. Reattaching was pretty straightforward. It took a bit of a wiggle. I also was glad I read a post on this forum on this before I needed it. ;)
