Bulletin: Ford Making Up For Charge Station Pro Delay With Incentive/Bonus For Lightning Extended Range Customers (incl. $500 cash)

[Silent_Thunder]

As a resident of Illinois who can only get our $4,000 rebate if it gets delivered after July 1, I'll take the $4k instead.

We were debating that, too, but I’m still unsure of the income limitations. We also have an R1S we’re expecting any day now and may see if we can schedule that for 7/1 or after…again, if we qualify for the IL incentive.

…but we got 250kwh before we knew there’d be a delay. I was already expecting the 250, so it’s really a net gain of 250. I’m one of the unfortunate peeps who is desperately charging on a 15-amp 120v outlet getting merely a mile or two per hour. It’s painful til our 80-amp charger arrives…

Can you wire up a 14-50 outlet somewhere in your garage? The level 1 charger came with that plug. I had a 100 amp circuit put into my garage for my Tesla. I just ripped their charger out and wired up a plug. I'm getting around 20-23 mph with the level 1.

Has anyone seen the extra kWh show up, or received any correspondence from Ford acknowledging this compensation?

No extra kWh here yet...

I hope you changed the breaker out for a 50A one as well?

My estimated delivery is 6/30-7/6. 9 days left to receive the bonus! If we did not receive delivery will there be an email sent confirming the bonus?

Nice that they're offering something for the delay though....

Did that come right after delivery?

I took delivery on June 4th and received the email today.

Got the same email today. I took delivery on June 10th.

Same email today also. Took delivery on June 6. I wish they would give an estimate on the delay. Are we talking one month or twelve months?

I took delivery on the 17th. Turned on "Blue Oval Charge Network" yesterday; see only the default 250kWh everyone gets for doing so, not the 500 I should see.

Of course it hasn't been a week since purchase yet, so, we'll see.

Still crickets with my June 3rd delivery. Called sunrun and they are clueless. Called the dealership they are also clueless. So I called Ford and talked to four different departments with still a bunch of clueless people. I'm getting pretty frustrated by it.

No E-mail .. Had my office call Sun Run today and they gave them a whole spiel about how we would be contacted within 5 days of taking a delivery. After all of this, she explains that we took delivery over 2 weeks ago and the reply was "covid 19" .. ugh.. This is the only negative part of this truck.

Anybody still waiting on these extra charging miles and the gift card? Took delivery on 6/8 and still nothing.
