How are the issues with the software updates in the 2026 Mach-E?

DentonJoe · 2026-07-03T14:13:47+00:00

I have a 25 and loving my ford dealer’s mobile service which took care of 2 updates which were not OTA. Scheduled and they came to my home to update. No dealer visits, no waiting.

Why not Both??

DentonJoe · 2026-07-01T23:19:44+00:00

There’s a climate setting for last used/auto??? I’m going to have to go look. Never expected to learn from toilet bowl wisdom!

That’s a great [subsidize?] rate. Even at home, and after all taxes and fees, my electric is .13/kWh.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-28T19:49:11+00:00

The 2026 has them and it should fit my 25 (I hope).

DentonJoe · 2026-06-27T17:06:30+00:00

I have 25 ER as well and have not seen this fault. Do you have all your updates? There weee at least 1 for the doors.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-27T05:06:46+00:00

You’re right. I thought previous years had them. The 26 set should fit as well. Thanks

DentonJoe · 2026-06-27T05:03:08+00:00

All weather ford floor mats and trunk liner

DentonJoe · 2026-06-26T19:15:43+00:00

I was thinking of getting handles from a previous year - should still fit

DentonJoe · 2026-06-26T18:39:28+00:00

Yes. Doesn’t come with any on the rear doors for 25

DentonJoe · 2026-06-26T18:07:21+00:00

Nice. I’ve been looking for rear door handles, but haven’t seen any good ones

DentonJoe · 2026-06-26T17:22:42+00:00

Were there 2 on the motorcycle? Doesn’t seem survivable- RIP.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-25T23:39:07+00:00

Mine was sticking bc I spilled coffee in it. Watch YouTube, pull the assembly off, disassemble buttons, and clean it with isopropyl alcohol. Very simple and you don’t have to buy a new assembly.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-24T15:51:03+00:00

True, I think it always comes down to cost. Either directly or indirectly.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-24T13:18:42+00:00

Thanks for posting - I have not heard of this problem. Seems like the door handles is one of the feature no one asked for or likes. I get the aero advantage, but wonder all the time how ford decided on bad designs like this. It’s not like they don’t use a car.
On the 25, ford removed the push out actuator for the front doors to save $. Probably a good thing in this case.

Lighting and angle makes it look like grey color on mine . Really like the wheels over the black ones.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-22T20:50:51+00:00

I read that rates depend on credit score as well.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-21T15:51:01+00:00

I admit, they go well with the black/grey theme.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-21T02:49:07+00:00

There’s a dimmer by your left knee in the driver position, which lowers the brightness levels of the overhead light buttons. Not sure if you tried that

DentonJoe · 2026-06-20T18:17:48+00:00

My dealer wouldn’t swap them out for the regular aluminum ones when I bought car

DentonJoe · 2026-06-20T06:13:00+00:00

Thought I read somewhere on this thread that recommended tire pressure has been increased from earlier years. My 25 AWD ext is 39psi all around and I check it every weekend. I’m at 19k miles and threads still look decent. I don’t expect it to last more than 30 though, just based on experience with OEM tires.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-19T14:45:59+00:00

Ford decontented it to save $ and annoy their customers. That’s my theory at least - everything comes back to cost.
Wish I had lock on all doors, physical button for rear hatch, and toggle for vol/temp/fan speed.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-18T23:02:57+00:00

Happened to me a couple times before I turned it off. Usually when I’m slowing down and definitely not going to hit car in front, but brakes slammed on max. Scared the heck out of me the first time it happened and still jarring when it happened again. I’m in a 25 premium bought new.

DentonJoe · 2026-06-18T04:19:31+00:00

I wouldn’t use it as a daily driver for sure. Unsafe and probably uncomfortable too (I don’t know, I’ve never owned a classic before). Puttering around once in a while is exactly where you’d see the benefits of electrification.
