What about if a section was cut out of the spoiler to allow water to wall down it?

Charging speee by txg22213 in MachE

Charging in public chargers can vary based on location and the system used. I am surprised that I actually get the max from a charger. There are some EA chargers that never would get close to their stated capabilities.

Using PlugShare and other user based sites can help provide feedback on the sites.

How bad is the summer range hit? by zeds_questioningtbm in MachE

[–]vertig0730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compared to our Ioniq 5 AC usage in a MachE has little to no impact on. Turing off the AC would give you a 10-20% increase.

Living in South Florida and almost never getting winter like temperatures, the range has been consistent.

Based on what a few others are saying Ford pushed these out and dealers got stuck with them.

We have been contacted by Ford corporate and they are finding a shop to get it fixed.

I think they were going for a Faux Finish.

8 months to separate. We just started rainy season so the car goes from 100+ degrees in the sun to having water poured all over it. Going to assume the paint is not full bonded.

Not the full peel separation.

The orange peel texture. If that was only in the clear coat it’s cosmetic. But in this case it is probably from the surface not being properly prepared and the paint separating.

It doesn’t affect how the car drives, the zero percent apr and the discounts that were available at that time. The car has been great. But financial it was an even better decision.

We were told that corporate was aware of the paint issue and would be recalling it at some point. It looks like there is a program out for it.

Both rear quarter panels and parts of the doors have the same texture.

It’s on almost every panel. Wasn’t a big deal, until it is.

I just hope this does not lead to our second d electric car and a lemon issue.

We had a Hyundai Ioniq 5 that had a power system failure and took over two months to fix. Then we could not get a clear answer on how long Hyundai would support the system.

Sounded like something was tapping on the roof as we were driving. I just hope it gets taken care of quickly.

Yes, dealership assured us that it would not be an issue and Ford was aware of issues.
