Looks like Ford ended the retail cash rebates for 2023 MY. They had been marked to end Jul 8, 2024, but they are no longer showing on any dealer websites.
@Ford Motor Company Do you guys plan to release any updates on this? Like root cause and whether this has been addressed? How should prospective Buyers interpret the lack of information or update on this?
Thanks!
I canāt decide if this makes me feel more or less comfortable haha.
I do see your point most are 2022 builds, though there are a handful of mid 2023 builds. Also wonder how much of a lag there is though in this issue surfacing with more recent builds. Guess time will tell.
On the...
Thanks for clarifying. When you say the tracking indicates fewer issues with 23s vs 22s, is that tracking referring to the posts in this forum, or some other data set?
I really want to buy a ā23 MY (late ā23 production) but am afraid to pull the trigger due to these battery issues. In my...
I think Iām still confused.
I thought the fire at the Dearborn production facility had a specifically identified root cause with 18 trucks recalled.
I thought the numerous people experiencing battery module failures being identified after the software updates (ie the 4% in the 23CSP57) was a...
I see. I didnāt think that there had been a clear root cause and closure of the battery module failures that people have been getting. Havenāt people been having battery module failures for vehicles manufactured well after the fire?
Iāve only been able to make it through the first 18 pages of this thread.
Has Ford published an end manufacturing date for the 2023 MY trucks that are impacted by this?
Is the estimated number still 4%?
Anyone drive from Houston to either SA, Austin, or DFW, or back with their Lightning ER? Think they are all around 220-230 miles. Curious your experiences, and if yāall do them without stop or if you make a charging stop on the way.
I read through what I could understand of those NEC articles. Is there a way to ground the truck chassis to my house ground? E.g. a wire connected to my house water pipe or ground roof that simply needs to be connected to a terminal on the chassis, if such a terminal exists? That doesnāt seem...
Oh one more question on the lightning strike scenario - thatās basically saying if lightning hits the truck, there needs to be a path to ground to discharge that electrical energy? So in this case it would be through the ECG to the homeās ground?
Not that it will influence any decisions but my...
Thank you both for the replies.
As a follow up question, I think one point where I may be confused about is how the PPO is connected to the homeās grounding system.
I think part of my confusion is that I have in my mind that since the homeās neutral and ground are bonded, when the 6852...
Hi all,
First time poster, though have read more posts on this topic than I care to count.
Iām trying to understand a proper setup to use the PPOās 240V outlet as a home backup. I want to do it the āproperā way, meaning to code and safely without hacks.
From what I have gathered, getting a...
