IDK if this relates, but i just recently bought my 2022 Lariat ER 511A Max Tow after turning in my Model Y lease, We have multiple Tesla's in the family, so i had 2 Tesla Wall Chargers, but i kept getting similar issues with random charge errors on the app, but the truck would still charge with a rare red ring error not charging on the Tesla charger using the adapter the truck came with. I bought a new charger (Grizzl-e 48amp) installed outside, so i can charge outside the garage, because the truck doesn't fit in the garage length. I have had no charger error issues with the Grizzle charger, so i dont know if its a tesla charger issue or possibly the adapter causing issues.

A few years back my origional 2017 80amp tesla wall charger started having random issues failing to charge our Tesla's and tesla sent out a mobile tech and after looking into the issue, he stated the charge cable was having a weak ground connection with the vehicle sometimes... So we had the charger cable replaced and that charger has been working fine since with no more errors.
Were you using a Level 2 adapter NACS to J1772, or the Super Charger adapter NACS to CCS1. The one Ford supplied for free will only work on Super Chargers and will fail every time with Tesla Wall Connectors.

Is anyone having this false charging error on Ford Pass App when using a J1772 only EVSE or is it just with Tesla Level 2 EVSEs.?

I haven’t DCFC’d in months so I’m not sure about that. It happened to me with the J1772 adapter.

Anyone using a Gen 3 universal wall connector with the native j1772 cable? Charging error or no ?

Could also do a power cycle on your EVSE.
Hey, so this actually worked for me. I power cycled my Tesla Wall Charger yesterday. When I plugged in last night I didn't get any error.
