Hmmmmmm, I wonder what Ford could do to compel the return of the defective adapter?!?

I just received an email from Ford saying my replacement adapter has been shipped. My original order number was 1063. I don’t know whether or not that’s relevant as they may not be shipping out the replacements in same sequence as the originals.

So it’s four days later, and when I click on the “track package” button in the email it comes back with a message from FedEx saying that the tracking number can’t be found. Anyone else seeing this?

I used the current one twice this past weekend. No problems. No heated NACS plug or adapter.
I don’t need no stinkin replacement.

Yippee! replacement adaptor arrived today. no email just showed up. just in time. Am taking a trip to Houston Friday which, without the adaptor, we'd be making in my wife's ICE car. for the record my original order was #1568 and is identical to the original.

I assume it came via FedEx?

yes

yes

Nice. I’ve been checking my FedEx account to see if I have any incoming shipments in case they also fail to email me.

Let’s be honest here. Nobody gives two hoots whether or not you have received your replacement. We care about when we are going to get ours.

Since they are coming out in ORIGINAL ORDER #, those of us still waiting want to know where we are in the pipe line.

SHARE YOUR JOY AND LIST YOUR ORDER#!!

New vs original Tesla NACS adapter - side by side comparison pics. Yes, my replacement Tesla adapter arrived today.

Background: I kept my original Tesla NACS adapter, received in I think early June, when I traded in my worn-out Mustang Mach E in July for the Lightning... hence my Mach E adapter low order number of 1,751.

Pic 1: side - by - side comparison. Same exact dimensions, same AFAICT weight, no way to distinguish except by small markings.

Pic 2: said markings, side - by - side. New adapter is on left, old is on right.

Pic 3: Ford wrapper with part number for new adapter.

Also, the just-like-original "Farley Gift" adapter package box came with an additional plastic bag + return label via FedEx.

Did you decide to keep it? I’m outta town and won’t be able to return for a bit.

Throw a service now error on your Lightning and deny the claim until you return the adapter….most likely scenario.
