Where to get Ford Telsa Charging Adapters

[CircusCowboy]

I keep reading the threads here about folks getting complimentary Tesla adapters with your trucks and also people receiving them after long backorders. I have been logged in to my Ford Pass account and tried to look up the adapter by part number and keyword and it is like they don't exist? I know I can buy other band adapters online, but I am worried that if they ever damage the charging port that Ford will not warranty it. Then, I just saw a news article about Ford recalling all of their Tesla adapters because they may damage the port? Ford seems really wishy-washy on what they give you with the truck and what they don't anymore. I got the Mobile/Home 32Amp charger with my truck and that was it. So, my question is, does Ford have an official FORD Tesla adapter, and where do you get it?

Yes it does and they are massively backordered. Also there was a recall that made it even worse There are a couple threads here on this forum about this.
Many people have resorted to 3rd party adapters - including me. Do a quick search here for this subject and you will quickly find the options and buying links. The two major options are Lectron and A2Z. Avoid cheap Chinese junk clones.

Ford replaced (it was not a recall) June shipments only.
Ford is not yet selling the adapters, they will be $200. https://www.ford.com/product/ford-fast-charging-adapter-nacs-p2999073032
The top non-Ford options are Lectron and A2Z. Note that Lectron makes one of the Ford adapters, but it's different than the one they sell directly. They are fine to use.

Thanks for the correction - I thought I had read that it was a recall.

Thank you! Yes, I have seen these adapters online, I was just worried about warranty issues if not using the "official" Ford adapter.

There are no warranty issues in using any adapter. The POTENTIAL for a warranty issue exists IF the vehicle was damaged during charging and IF Ford could prove that the non-OEM adapter caused the failure. It's like using a FRAM oil filter on a gas vehicle.

And, if you want to charge at a Tesla DESTINATION charger, like a hotel, there is no Ford adapter made. This one is 80amps. https://a2zevshop.com/collections/charging-adapters/products/a2z-stellar-plug?ref=Typhoon

You can buy the original Tesla OEM adapter from Rivian for $250 with free shipping BUT NO RETURNS ALLOWED.

I personally keep both the OEM Tesla adapter and A2Z Stellar AC / Typhoon Pro DCFC adapter to have myself covered at all times.

This ensures I have a backup always and I can charge at Tesla Destination chargers commonly found at hotels / shopping center / parking lots.

The level 2 Stellar adapter will pay for it self overtime by avoiding an expensive fast charge on the road every night while you sleep at the hotel with Tesla destination charging.

You can use the same Tesla Find Us link to locate Tesla Level 2 destination chargers.

Tesla Find Us Superchargers available with adapter / Magicdock location Chargers

New orders: Current estimate for A2Z is shipping will take 1 - 2 weeks for the new Typhoon Pro adapter. Still in time for Spring Break travel plans.

Discount promo code “FORD” is still working and free shipping is also available.
