IMHO, this is a textbook example of big-corporation thinking: spend another billion to become an “AI company” and end up with yet another product nobody actually uses. :clap:

I’ve driven a couple of these EVs in Europe - honestly, they feel like they’re about 20 years ahead :lipssealed:

One day, when we’re all cruising around in Chinese EVs with 10k-mile range, some retired @FMC exec will realize they made the wrong call back in 2026. But let’s be honest - with the kind of money they’ve got in retirement, they probably won’t care at all :crying:

The biggest disappointments in my Ford Lightning journey were the dealerships - and this letter :asshat: The truck itself is amazing - I genuinely love it.

Honestly, as someone who’s done with gas engines and endless dealer visits, this letter pretty much seals it for me - my next truck will be fully electric, just not a Ford :lipssealed:

$0.03 - overnight. Ontario - lake Simcoe region.

My vote is for ex90

I’d honestly bet $50 that if this list could be shown directly to the FMC CEO without the layers of bureaucracy, it would be implemented in the current app or the next version.

FMC - you should consider hiring this guy. This one topic is more meaningful than most of the Ford app features.

Similar case -with 2k left before the warranty runs out. I brought my truck to a third-party repair shop and paid $250 for a detailed inspection report (brakes, suspension, etc.). In my case, everything checked out well except the rear brakes, which had about 20% remaining.

In my case, one of the battery cells died. Took my dealer a while to get it replaced.

I’d recommend going with a third-party windshield service since most of them cover your deductible.

Wow, how did you know? My coolant level is below MIN, and the battery temperature is HIGH! Going back to the dealer :clap:

Is there a level indicator or sensor I can check myself?

Yep. I had mentally prepared myself for at least a month or more. :fingerscrossed:

Sure.

As a veteran of two battery failure seasons, let me share a tip: if the dealer doesn't offer you a substitute vehicle, just rent one and bill all your expenses—including fuel—directly to Ford.

Season 2 / Day 5 I just got a call from the dealer saying my truck is fixed and ready for pickup :shock: Let's do the math: I dropped it off late Wednesday afternoon, and by Monday morning at 9 am, it's supposedly fixed—that's less than five days. I'm not one to start conspiracy theories, but...

@GoodSam I've reviewed your spreadsheet and have a few thoughts: 1. You've done an incredible job collecting all these cases. Wow and thank you! 2. While I'm not sure how this compares to the scale of Ford Motor Co, it seems like an overwhelming number to me. If I had this many issues with...

@GoodSam On a side note, my neighbor, who owns a XLT ER and is far too busy to "waste time on the internet," also has his truck at the dealership waiting for his 2nd cell replacement. His first replacement was also in 2023. I can get his VIN and details for your records if needed.
