So. Still having random dead car issues. I'll go weeks without a problem and then it will be dead again. Had the battery load tested and it is fine. It's worth noting that the only time this happens is when it is on my 110 charger overnight. It fully charges but will be dead in the morning. I can leave it unplugged and sitting for a week without any issues. I'm guessing the dealership will be useless in solving this.

Thanks, murphy. I'll check that out! It would be great if it is just a battery issue versus any number of 'unknown others'. I had it at the dealership a few weeks back to catch up on the open recalls. They presumably did a battery test (and said it was fine) but I have no idea whether they did it under load.

I continue to have issues with finding my car in Sleep Mode in the morning. Every five days or so. My car will be plugged in overnight and hit full charge at 2AM at which point I get a text stating the battery is fully charged. At 5:30 it is in Sleep Mode and can only be woken with a jump. My 12V battery is in good health. I can test in immediately after waking the car and it is north of 12 volts. After I jump it and get it started, the onscreen display seems to go through a reboot. Even though it is in reboot, audio of whatever podcast I was most recently listening to will already be playing. Another note - recently I was receiving texts from the car but the date stamp was completely off. Thanks in advance for any advice you might have.

When I look at my Trip and Charge Log on the My Ford Mobile site, I don't see data for how much kWh was delivered to my car during charging. Where do I look to get this sort of data? Thanks -

Has anyone tried ordering one of these from Alibaba? The price is good (of course, shipping bumps that up a bit). https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/110V-220V-Duosida-evse-16A-j1772_60663944077.html

murphy - Thanks for the tip on the small, 12V battery stored in the glove box. It has already come in handy and was cheaper (and smaller) than a jump box! Taking the car in on Monday to get them to check for out of date software.

This is a great thread. Just bought my 2014 FFE this week and already had the joy of the battery being dead at the end of the day the second day in. Needless to say, that wasn't exactly a confidence booster. The previous (first) owner did not appear to take great care of this car nor take any effort to learn to drive it efficiently. I was worried the dead battery was due to their negligence but after reading through this thread I am learning many useful facts about that 12v battery. Thanks for all the information!
