What do you guys think, will this be written off?
Hello friends, I just had unique and kinda alarming incident happened. I was sitting in my MME waiting to go in for an appointment. A family was loading up into an F-150 next to me. Randomly loud noise, and then my trunk starts opening and I start wondering if one of the young kids maybe hit the button? Get out, close it, and didn't think much of it. Well when i go to leave my car freaks out because the Frunk is ajar.
My wife has access to the app, and we have a 4 yo at home so when I get back and ask, she assured me neither of them were in the app.
Anyone else ever experience anything similar? Is there any way to access a log that says what initiated the actions?
Thank you in advance for any input.

I'm not 100% sure if this has been addressed before, but there are a lot of people asking this question (and not just here in the Mach-E sub).
Officially, per the language on Ford's U.S. website (pulled from the following URL for those curious: https://shop.ford.com/configure/mach-e/chooseyourpath/ ):
Price Protection: Ford offers price protection to cover manufacturer price increases on the base vehicle and factory-installed options between the order date and delivery. However, this protection does not extend to external factors such as new tariffs, taxes, or regulatory fees imposed after the order date.
Although Ford could choose to be generous and honor the original quoted price, their Price Protection policy clearly states that it does not cover "external factors such as new tariffs...." Legally, you are likely responsible for paying the tariff, which will be reflected in an increased MSRP.
That doesn’t mean Ford won’t try to reduce or absorb part of the 25% tariff, but if they decide to increase the MSRP of your pre-ordered vehicle by 25%, you will have no legal standing to challenge it. It’s right there in the terms and conditions.
Obviously, this does not apply if you're buying something that's already on the lot at the original price. However, this post is explicitly about pre-ordered vehicles shipping from places like Mexico, where the 25% tariff may apply at the time your vehicle crosses the border—which is when the tariff is collected.
Hope this clarifies? I hadn't seen anyone post this exact language before, so I wanted to share what I found. Right from the pony's mouth.
It’s been like this for a few days now. Killing and restarting the app doesn’t fix it.
Other than the usual range and clearance issues, what are some of the things you don’t like about the Mach E in winter? For me, I hate the felt lining on the bottom of the car. It fills with slush, freezes and then bangs on the bottom of the car (sounds like someone is hitting the front motor with a hammer) - Ford has no solution other than daily car washes.
I also find the traction control a little sluggish compared to ICE AWD. In fact, I don’t notice a ton of difference with it on or off.
I have a '22 premium AWD ER. Love my car -- our whole family does. It's my favourite vehicle out of the nine I've owned in my life.
But I'm boycotting as many American products and services as possible. The tariffs were the last straw.
Are any Canadian or European owners feeling conflicted?
How are y'all doing, American owners?
Hi guys, I am feeling I red all posts last three months and now I finally got my Mustang, but its a bit pain due to:
Thx for any tips :)
So easy enough right but I’m leery about taking it anywhere besides the dealership. Are there any problems with a regular tire shop putting it on a lift?
Interesting stuff, priced over 2000 usd
Went to test the NACS adapter today. Let’s just say I’ll be keeping it for emergencies only 😅
So from my last post, it seems everyone is recommending against me getting a MachE. I'm left now with a question of what instead? I really love the interior, handling, and performance of the car. I also like the tech features.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a similar ICE vehicle?
It's the small details that make a car stand out, and for me, the only drawback with the software and display is the screen for Engage mode.
Whisper mode has this smooth, fluid motion that feels calming and immersive. Unbridled features bold, dynamic lines that light up and shift as you accelerate, making the experience feel exciting and engaging.
Then there’s Engage… which gives you a small, generic car icon that isn’t even a Mach-E unless you chose black, along with a battery graphic that resembles a basic power bar. It feels uninspired and lacks creativity. Unfortunately, Engage is the mode I use most since it best matches my driving style—meaning I’m stuck with this underwhelming display.
Of course, this is a minor gripe—definitely a first-world problem—but I do hope Ford considers updating the Engage mode screen to make it more visually appealing.
Has anyone added ambient interior lighting to their select model? I ended up going with the select since we got an incredible deal on the 2024 cherry red - but realize I do want the interior ambient lightening, anyone do this and have any tips on how to not show the wires,etc?
Thanks!!
So my 2024 Mach-ex doesn't qualify for the tax credit but my co workers shitty dodge hybrid that gets 25 miles range on a full charge gets 7,500 back. Can someone make that make sense please.
While my wife went into the shop, I just turned my phone into a WiFi hotspot, connected the car to my phone's WiFi and pigged out on YouTube videos. I hardly noticed that she was gone for 1 and a half hours. The old me would have slowly died of boredom in the shop or would have been phoning her non-stop from the car to hurry up. Thanks for the recent upgrade, Ford!
At the moment only YouTube shows up. How do I/can I get Netflix?
I'm having difficulty finding these online, for my car - I don't want carpet or leather, and prefer grey with red piping. If possible,
Hi everyone,
I’ve been having a few issues with my Mach-E and was wondering if anyone else has experienced the same or found any solutions:
Slow screen startup – After the car has been unused overnight, the screen takes up to five minutes to start.
Pre-heating not working properly – The fan starts, but the heating doesn’t turn on. I have to manually activate the heating for it to work.
Wi-Fi keyboard missing – When trying to enter my Wi-Fi password, the keyboard doesn’t appear on the screen.
Has anyone else encountered these problems? Any solutions or workarounds?
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know how this is supposed to work? I'm old enough to remember automatic shifters on the column and even "3 on the tree", but this doesn't seem to be the same. Does the whole stalk move or do you move the "switch" on the stalk up or down for reverse and drive? I can't find any videos demoing it or even anyone mention it so I'm probably making it more complicated than it is.
I ordered my 2025 Mustang Mach-e last week. Will the tariffs announced today impact the cost of my order? Will Ford incur the tariff since they are an American company manufacturing in Mexico? I need an economist to weigh in.
Looking to buy a used 2021 long range MachE. It has 70k on it and price is roughly 30k CAD.
I’m concerned about the battery replacement. Is this a lot of mileage on a single battery that’s already 4-5 years old? Battery replacement seems to be the equivalent to purchasing the car all over again. Is this something I should be concerned about?
Is this considered a good deal?

I've never owned an electric car but have been wanting to swap to a Mach-E from a Ram 1500 for a while now. I had planned on swapping in another 2 years but with all the incentives likely going away and seeing good deals I'm thinking of doing it sooner. I think for a 2024 I'd probably be paying around 600 a month, I also live in an apartment but work remote. Do you think it's worth it?
Extra note. I live in a fair climate state, but was making serious plans to move to a Chicago in 2026. Is the heat pump worth the extra money?
Context, my apartment offers charging. There are two spots, one is out of service, and the other has been used by one car for an entire week. I have to go out of town tomorrow and must charge my car. Sadly, there are no public chargers nearby. I contacted my apartment’s courtesy officer, and they were not much help. They seemed somewhat on board with me unplugging the charger, but have not received a firm “yes”. It is incredibly frustrating as those spots are to be used for the entire apartment complex. It is not a reserved spot for a singular person, yet they’ve been hogging it for a whole week. Thank you.
Hi All,
2023 MME RWD Premium package with only 15K miles for $26K. Roughly 30K out the door based on dealers comms as of now. They have been unwilling to chop any further $ off.
As far as I can tell, there’s nothing tricky or shady about it. LMK what you think please as this seems like a really good deal to me but I am a novice car buyer.
Edit: I live in a warm climate and don’t drive a ton (about 30-40 miles a day), so RWD and standard battery seem perfectly fine to me.
Love everything about my mach e except for the mileage. I have the standard so maybe that's why. But whatever it says it can do - it probably does half of that. I would be scared to try to take this long distance anywhere. In less than a month it had some battery issue and had to be replaced by the dealer (bought brand new) - is this just me
I am getting rid of my Teslas. S and 3 respectively, for obvious reasons. Looking at alternatives for EV cars. Naturally the Mach E came up, along with Mercedes, BMW, and Lucid.
How are you liking the MachE? In terms or range, speed, and functionality? How about in terms of self-driving capability and upgrades? I know the self driving isn't at Tesla level yet, but what are your thoughts?
