App - Charge to 100%

[Farmford42]

I am in the Pacific Northwest and we have a storm coming tonight. I normally charge to 85% but told the app to run the charge to 100% tonight. The app still shows 85% as the target, but appears to be trying to charge to 100% anyone else noticed this? Its as 85% now and another couple hours before full.

When we have gone to 100, we just press the charge to 100% and although the scheduled target stays at 85 or 80 whatever it's set to, but goes to 100.

The app is ridiculously bad. Yesterday, I had it in a state where it said charge limit 85, but said will charge to 100% by xx time, with the button on the bottom saying 'charge to 100%', as if it wasn't already going to.

I clicked charge to 100% and then resume schedule and that got it back to doing my charge limit.

Ford needs to address this app situation.

It did in fact charge to 100% but the app still said it was scheduled for 85%. I would love to see @Ford Motor Company tune this better.

The FordPass app used to list the current target on that detailed charge screen. One of the recent updates killed that and it will now show the programmed SOC rather than the current SOC. It is a recently added bug that @Ford Motor Company needs to address.

Make sure you have have SELECTED your preferred charging location(s)
Set this in the truck or APP, though be aware they sometimes become unsynchronized if changed before the next drive session.

Yesterday I inadvertently selected the "Charge when plugged in" before I realized what was going on, I was above my preferred 90%, actually got to 98%, I then stopped the charging via the APP, this morning while the truck was preconditioning for 15 minutes it gained another 1% to 99%

I have since resumed using my preferred setting, but if I wanted to bump up from 90 to 100, all I (we) need to do is tap the Charge to 100% and the truck will follow through.

Thanks Taxman! I did all of that and was at my home charging location. Normally its set to 85% and works great. It did charge to 100% but never updated the app to say that it had accepted the "charge to 100%" button in the app. The last time I asked the truck to charge to 100 it appeared to work, but I dont do that very often.

Then it sounds like everything is set correctly, just don't hit that charge to 100% button and all should be good, but if you do, then either hit the Stop Charging or the Resume Schedule button.
