Are you keeping the cabin at a normal temperature (72 degrees F)? Do you have anything on the package shelf behind the rear seats? Cooling air for the HVB comes from an opening on the package shelf.

They replaced the modem from 2G to 3G for free.You could make the case that they replaced it with a defective modem and the repair should be free even if you no longer had warranty coverage on the car. That means no payment of a deductible. My modem was replaced in late 2016 just before 2G service went away. It is probable that the newer firmware existed when you got the modem and the dealer failed to check before it was installed.

There are two force engine on modes. Fuel maintenance. If the tank hasn't been filled for 18 months the engine will run until the fuel level is down to 1/8 of a tank. Putting new fuel into the tank will abort the burn. Oil Maintenance If the computer decides the oil needs to be heated up to get rid of moisture it will run the engine long enough to do that. My car is over 5 years old and I have never seen either mode. I typically go from late spring to early fall without the engine running at all.

Mustang options: 6-speed manual transmission 10-speed SelectShift® Automatic Transmission (optional) :)

That's no different than driving a stick shift car. The lights don't come on when engine braking is used to slow down.

Check your my Ford account. My 2013 shows the following. FSA Title: SYNC WITH MYFORD MYLINCOLN TOUCH WARRANTY EXTENSION COVERING ACCESSORY PROTOCOL INTERFACE MODULE APIM Field Service Action Number: 12M02 It doesn't say how long the warranty has been extended. My car is over 5 years old and it is still there.

I use L all of the time because it makes my Energi drive the same as my Tesla. You can modulate the level of regen with the accelerator pedal. I stopped looking at the scores a long time ago.

The car goes into sleep mode when the 12 volt battery gets too low. Have your 12 volt battery load tested. After 4 years you probably need a new one.

The car being in sleep mode is an indication of a weak 12 volt battery. The car goes to sleep to avoid completely draining the battery. Have your 12 volt battery load tested.

The only way to get that data is to install a kWh meter. I use this one. https://www.ekmmetering.com/basic-kwh-meter-100a-120-240-volt-3-wire-60hz-ekm-25ids.html with a 240 volt EVSE. I also have a 120 volt version to use with the EVSE that came with the car.

The Samsung Gear uses the Tizen operating system.

According to the video at that link it is only available in Europe. The app on my Android phone is up to date and there is no mention of this new capability. The video is misleading. The watch connects to the phone via bluetooth which has a 30 foot range. Unless your phone is in your pocket while you are out running it isn't going to work.

It was probably plugged into an improperly wired receptacle. Any heat generated in the receptacle is readily transferred to the plug via the copper pins. Copper is a very good conductor of heat.

I am not aware of My Ford Mobile supporting any smart watch.

Check the wiring of the washer outlet. Make sure the incoming and outgoing wires are securely clamped under the screws. Better would be the incoming, outgoing, and a pigtail wire nutted together with the pigtail connected to the washer outlet screw.

I would have to see what they were connected to. There are a lot of 15 amp receptacles that have a hole to push the wire in to make the connection. That is fine if the load will be a table lamp. For a max current continuous load the wires should be clamped under the screws. The receptacle for car charging should be a new installation with no other receptacles on that circuit. Car charging requires a dedicated circuit.

A 12 gauge extension cord is fine although I prefer a 10 gauge cord. The warning is there because the typical extension cord that most people have lying around is 18 gauge or 16 gauge. Neither of those should ever be used to charge the car.

It's not a rebate, it's a tax credit. It is $4007 for the Energi. https://www.irs.gov/businesses/30d-new-qualified-plug-in-electric-drive-motor-vehicles-ford-motor-company

The battery is cooled by air drawn from the cabin. There is an intake vent on the shelf behind the rear seats. Make sure there is nothing blocking that vent. During charging the battery cooling fan exhausts underneath the car. 120 volt charging is less efficient than 240 volt charging. The incoming AC has to be rectified to DC and multiplied up to over 350 volts DC to charge the battery.

My car is only used for local driving. From late spring until early fall my engine does not run. All driving is done on electricity only. That means my mpg is infinite during that time. Further I have 10 kW of PV solar panels on the roof of my house so my cost for electricity during that time is zero. It doesn't work in the winter due to the low sun angle and snow preventing what little sun there is from hitting the panels. Ford was in a good place when they introduced the car in 2013. Five years later they increased the nominal range from 21 miles to 25 miles. Now they have announced the Fusion and other sedans will be discontinued so they can focus on trucks and SUVs. Will it help their bottom line? I don't know but I do know that I will never buy an SUV or a truck.

The car switches automatically to hybrid mode when the battery is depleted. Use electric mode when in stop and go traffic and switch to EV Later when highway speed is possible.

Drive down a really big hill in EV mode. Back in 2013 or 2014 someone used regen to provide the braking coming down from the top of Pike's Peak and fully charged the battery.

240 volt charging is more efficient than 120 volt charging. You would have to buy a 240 volt EVSE since the one that comes with the car is 120 volt only. The maximum the car can take is 16 amps at 240 volts. That has to be on a 240 volt 20 amp circuit because continuous loads must be 20% less than the circuit breaker rating. (80% of 20 amps is 16 amps). I have been charging my car at 240 volts since the day I brought it home in 2013. The 240 volts AC has to be converted to DC and multiplied up to about 400 volts to charge the battery. That means the 16 amps AC becomes about 8 amps DC.. A warning about adaptive cruise control. In a very heavy downpour the radar transceiver may determine that the water is attenuating the signal too much and shut down. If that happens you will have no cruise control until you park the car and shut it off. When you turn it back on the cruise control will be back. I learned that the hard way while driving south on I95 in a heavy downpour with the wheels of the vehicle in front of me throwing water back at the front of the car. Having said that you only need a 16 amp EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment), if you have any plans to get a car in the future that can use more current, consider getting a bigger one now. I started with a 16 amp EVSE. Then I installed a 40 amp EVSE. Both of those are still in my garage. I recently added a brand specific 80 amp EVSE to the mix for my other car. The Energi can be charged by a 40 amp EVSE because the car and the EVSE negotiate the current that will be supplied. The connector that plugs into the car is a J1772 connector. Any EVSE that has that connector can be used.

Is it just the mirror or the whole assembly that is glued to the windshield?

Please don't take offense while I correct your terminology. Voltage in the USA is 120/240 volts and has been for at least 100 years. Sorry but I'm an electrical engineer and this mistake annoys me way more than it should. The unit that is used to connect power to your car is an Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). The charger is built into the car. Basically the EVSE is a contactor (relay) that negotiates with the car to set the charging current. Any EVSE that has a J1772 connector on it will work with your car. It's the same connector that is on the EVSE that came with the car. I have two Leviton units in my garage. I don't think either one of them is still available. The maximum current the Energi can handle is 16 amps at 240 volts so unless you plan to buy a car that can use more than that in the near future there is no need to get a bigger one. That said I bought a 16 amp unit when I got my car in 2013 and two years later I bought a 40 amp unit for a different car. All units, no matter how big they are, can handle the Energi. I forget how the protocol works but basically the EVSE and the car negotiate a current value that both the car and the EVSE can handle. Go to Google and search for EVSE and you will get lots of hits. Here is one that looks interesting but I know absolutely nothing about it. https://amazing-e.com/ Welcome to the world of electric driving.
