I just bought my 2016 Ford Fusion Energi 3 months ago. After charging all night, every morning it used to say I had 20 miles that I could drive on EV. Now it's dropped over night to saying I only have 15 miles that I can drive on the charge. I charge it overnight in my garage on a dedicated outlet that was wired specifically for my car to charge. Any ideas why I no longer get 20 miles per charge out of my car?

My 2014 Fusion Energi is a great - when it worked, The range has never been over 16 miles for me personally, I get almost twice the range is my simple GEM. The dealer had it in the shop for over a month and I have been told that the range was bad because it was too cold outside. I live in the midwest and now that the outdoor temps are getting over 85 degrees the vehicle cannot drive over 200 feet without the engine coming on due to battery high temp, acceleration and normal operation when it is in ev only mode. I love the way the vehicle drives when in ev mode - not with the engine running, The adaptive cruise and other features are awesome, but I purchased this vehicle for its plug in ev purpose. I have a 9 mile commute and it should have made round trips easily without burning gas. Ford cannot answer questions regarding what is good or bad, The techs do not know how to diagnose issues and service managers simply are confused on the issue. I have read the other posts regarding range and have to admit that I am a bit jealous of what other people are achieving. - Wish Ford could fix this.
