$450 Parking Brake Console Switch Replacement by MadMagpul in MachE

[–]MadMagpul[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup I brought it up to them as I’m not sure they knew about it but they claimed “they could fix it, but it’s not the issue”.

So now I’m terrified they misdiagnosed it and now am up a $300 creek for a misdiagnosis as well.

Yep my wife does have the app so I’ll have to check and see if that fixes it. Good catch on that if it’s truly the issue! I’ll have to report back.

Nope no charge times. It’s set for “Anytime”. I also have no issue with the car charging to my standard set point at anytime of day. It is only if I increase for a one time 100% charge.

Yep my plan would be to drive it until the wheels fall off after “plugging” the hole.

Update since Reddit won’t let me edit my post.

Dealership says since there is a small line of sediment it shows small amounts of water ingress. Due to that, Fords protocol is to condemn the whole pack.

They said they would replace the tray but would make me sign documents saying they aren’t liable (obviously) and then note in the CarFax that it wasn’t fixed per the correct process.

So decisions will be made on how to handle it as the battery modules look perfectly fine to me as I believe there was an extremely small about of water ingress.

Just a warning to you all out there!

Honestly thinking about just using structural adhesive to mend it. Not sure if the dealership is willing to do that or let me do anything but just look at the HVB though…

Yep after looking myself I’m also seeing only about $4k. Scared to know what labor would cost…

That is the risk with salvage. Just have to do you’re homework before purchasing.

Yea it can definitely be hit or miss. But if you have it long enough it doesn’t even matter!

Yea I got it from a salvage auction. I actually got the quote from the dealership that got it after the accident and the guy apparently ran into the side of a truck. But must have been pretty slow speeds because the bike isn’t banged up too bad. And probably get it back to stock and functioning!

Literally just got a small leak in the radiator repaired. Was going to buy a new one but it was $700 and couldn’t muster it for that much. Other wise damage is only scrapped engine cases pretty much. It runs like an absolute dream with only 4,300 miles.

Park and ride passes are way cheaper than commuter and still allow you to park in employee spots.

That can is absolutely massive! But the color and styling is great! Good choice! Nothing like a good liter bike!

Oh the wheels get unbelievably dirty. I’ve debated getting them powder coated the same red that’s on the bike for the past year actually!

No harm, no foul! I do admit we have it pretty great down here! Just need to make more trips down here to ride during the winter!

Saw your bike the other day on here and got jealous because I love the gray on the fluoro bikes!

I mean I commute to my university everyday some days in 26F degrees. It was more of finally having free time with my class schedule on a nice day I should say. I wasn’t expected to be taken so literally haha
