Ford dealer chargers are public use?
I have never used one but they are open to the public right?
the dealer near me parks all their EVs there and doesn’t seem to make it easy to use.
Hi all,
I’m contemplating a multi state trip and looking to see what people like for mobile navigation apps with good EV charge planning. My Tesla was good at this automatically.
thank
Had a front bumper accident and it got me thinking if there’s a type of front grill or brush guard like a ranch hand that might work? Maybe a low profile version?
I know the trunk would interfere with the one I had on my suv but perhaps a low mount one?
I’m trying to check my vehicle location and I get a Google message to accept maps data policy and then this generic error. Didn’t find any info online about it.
anyone else?

I had a 2022 S and was about to face having to pay $3500 for extended warranty. Definitely think the truck form factor was better but the range loss is real.
I’m not the most knowledgeable on all the adapters but I know you need a super charger compatible one for high voltage which is the A2Z or the Ford one (major backlog).
Well there are Tesla stations that are unsupported and apparently some turned off from non Tesla. The ford and Tesla apps can show you the ones supported but I have had various luck with v4s that show up but don’t charge.
I use a A2z adapter while I wait on my ford one
Thanks. I thought that too on the v4 but teslas were charging. I also read some have been turned off to non-teslas. Perhaps they aren’t open for Ford yet..?
Fair enough, I’ve read most of the posts but maybe I missed some that had more data on chargers.
all these chargers were on the ford app so assumed compatible but also were on Teslas app as well. I could activate the v4 but no charge.
all charging was done 50-80% except electrify which was...
2024 flash with 3k miles. Charges great at home on Tesla wall charger (12-15kw)
Ok so I have now charged or tried to charge at 4-5 fast charging and have had a pretty inconsistent experience. I’m curious if this is the norm:
Telsa v4 - pretty new near my house. Didn’t even have numbers on the...
Ok I have an update:
Went to EVGO 100Kw CCS and the first one I tried:
Ford app activate and plugin into the car with plug-charge enabled
Red light, machine says connection failure
then tried the machine next to it, same thing but the cable stuck in the port. I then learned how to find the...
I appreciate it. Is there anyway to know on the update? I will go and try a non-tesla charger this week and make another attempt at testing the A2Z adapter.
No fast chargers yet.
This was my first attempt and it was Tesla SC - I can try a non-tesla. Is there something I'm missing on the first setup?
I will say, I have turned off a lot of the data sharing features on the F150 but I have to turn them back on for stupid stuff like the charging tab...
Main question, has anyone had an issue with the V3 built-in non-tesla adapter? Charge Faults?

Today I tried charging at a pretty new V3 Tesla SC with my 2024 Lightning. I have charged many times on my Tesla S, but this was quite the experience:
2024 F150 Flash
1500 miles
Charges fine at...
