How do you get the free adapter from Ford? I purchased my Lightning 9/30/24 and haven't received any email or regular mail about getting the adapter.

You may not. There was a cutoff date, but I do t recall what it was.

Might need to do some Googling to find the details.

I think the deadline was Sept 30, 2024 to register for the free one. I also made the purchase on Sept 30 but didn't take delivery until Oct 3. My gut says I don't qualify but my dealer and sales manager both said that they squeezed me in. Didn't want to gamble/wait so I pulled the trigger on the A2Z adapter.

Both these forums and Tom have discount codes that should take some money off your order from A2Z. I'm sure there's a discount code for the Lectrons as well but I'm not familiar. If you can afford it, I would pick one of those up while you (and I) wait in limbo for our free adapters.

The cutoff to order the free adapter was 9/30/24.

A2ZEV makes the Typhoon Pro adapter for Tesla SuperChargers. It sells for $189.00 ($170.10 after using code FORDFORUM). They also sell the Stellar adapter, which is for Tesla Destination chargers (such as hotels, private homes). It sells for $111. If you pick use the dropdown menu on the Typhoon Pro page to pick the Stellar adapter also, the combined price is $270.00 ($243.00 with code FORDFORUM). In other words, it’s only $72.90 more for the destination charging adapter. They are currently shipping quickly. I have both adapters and have used both many times. They work great. https://a2zevshop.com/products/nacs-ccs1?ref=Typhoon&variant=43186507579592

Contacted chat, and they said if you're eligible a notification will pop up when you go to connected services on the FordPass app and then to the Blue Oval network. Nothing for me unfortunately.
