Gotta have hope....

The Flintstones had their Great Gazoo, Major Nelson could summon Jeannie, and we wait for @FordMotorCompany in our times of crisis.

Yeah, that was on my original list too.
It got shortlisted as you have to journey to get there as opposed to summoning a force. I guess the 8+ month wait might count as the "walk along the yellow brick road".

No time. They're trying to get their high profit Mustang EV.s from dying on the road.
funny thing is, they cant make it to the road, dads Charger already shit the bed. Dealership says bring the car and charger. Like for what reason do you need the car? plug the thing in it flashes 3 lights and they stay on faulty by manual definition. done. Nope not ford.. lol not to mention, The rapid charges are causing a whole other recall lol so he doesn't even want to go charge it now. he has 8k miles FE mach e and he already is trading it in he said hes done. lol

The mustang issue is overheated connectors from fast charging or driving fast. That’s basic electrical design stuff. Proper wire and connector size. But they intend to fix it with a software update. Which can only mean slower charge and a slower car. Total BS.

I disagree. Software is an important part of the hardware working properly. Drivers (software) matter.

You could code your phone to charge ignoring temperatures and it would blow up.

That said, it does stink that mustang owners are probably going to be seeing slower charging.

Ok to disagree. I still think cables and connectors should be able to handle the maximum current the electric motor can draw without risk of overheating.

Sure, they could use heavier gauge wire, which would of course be more expensive, and heavier. Then again they have been losing money on each unit for a few months now, I'm sure that would help. ;) One thing's for sure, the 2023 models of just about everything are going to see some big price jumps.

Really?
Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.... but yes, really. Not saying an occasional one is bad, but most everyone's 12V is fine. The problem lies in the wiring harness that keeps your 12V charged.

My Maverick XLT came in March. I do alot of long distance driving for work so i am currently up to 7200 miles. Just this afternoon I go and get ready for one of my service calls and my key will not open the truck. Manually open the driver side door, put my key in the ignition and..........the vehicle will not start. I call Ford Roadside and within 30mins I get the rep to jump my truck. Now, this stuff shouldn't be happening so soon. Just wondering has anyone had this or any type of issue w/ the truck not starting?
@fordvideoguy another one

What is meant by early adopter? I'm driving a hybrid made in September whose VIN number ends on 00944. This must be pretty early I'm guessing.
My Hybrid was built on November 29. 2021 and delivered on December 13th.

I'm guessing your Hybrid Maverick was built in September and sat until OKTB was issued late November. I think that was the 27th of November.

I have not experienced this "No Start" issue and I just completed a 2800 mile 12 day vacation again with no issues.
