Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking for the cup holder. It buzzes incessantly. I can only punch it so many times before it breaks, ya know. Not really looking forward to the b-pillar either. ugh, stupid ford.
-
Awesome thanks so much. I'm way over warranty (60k miles); plus they were unable to fix these issues the 4 times i had the car in before anyways.
-
You know the button you push to adjust the height of the seatbelt on the b-pillar? That's what I need. Also, thanks for the diagrams - though they don't show the cup holder removal. Surely I don't have to remove the entire console for that?!

Looking for a diagram on how the cup holder is removed. Mine is rattling non-stop and it's driving me crazy. Also need a diagram for the seat belt button. Mine somehow is off track and I need to fix it.

That's a pretty snotty reply.
-
That seems almost impossible!

And the noise cancellation works even with the audio system in use?
-
Can I piggyback on this thread a little? Does your 'stop notifications' for SMS texts stay enabled? I will turn off alerts through the phone menu on the MFT but it never lasts.

This happens to mine, too. Seems like the fan blows at 85-90% most of the time but then randomly it will start blowing much harder. And it's evident because the cabin gets louder and more air comes out. Wish it blew at 100% all the time! e: I should pull video from the dashcam when this happens.
-
Awesome, thanks so much. You may have increased my standard of living.
-
Do you have some more pics of the dash cover? I freaking hate the glare, too, and thought about getting a cover but wasn't sure how it'd fit and look.
-
I, too, have this issue. When I explained to the dealership that my car sounds like an old pirate ship they didn't know wtf to do about it. Unfortunately, they couldn't fix it before my warranty ran out. Bummer.

Name one like and dislike with your C-Max?

It's okay, I have the same kind of issue with the phone functions through MFT. Set the functions and they don't stick. -
Nope. I wish though, it'd be easier to fix ;)
-
*shrug* Guess I'm just unlucky. Having the AC blow directly on my face while I try to get the paper I have wedged in the mirror in the flap positioned to block the sun while the dash rattles over every bump kind of sucks. Twas a sad day when the factory warranty ran out. I've put about 40k on ours. Don't get me wrong, the materials don't feel cheap and it looks nice, I just don't think it was designed very well.

I don't know, I just don't think the interior received the same amount of effort as everything else. Considering all the high tech in this car, you would think they could put extending visors in at least.... Don't really have many chips in the paint, but the inside of the door wasn't fully painted from the factory. Musta been a Monday car :D
-
This was also a big selling point for me. I have realized, though, that the interior is pretty sub-par, IMO. Visors are useless, there's no front cabin storage, I have a lot of dash squeaks and rattles, multiple interior pieces had to be re-installed because they came loose, rear carpet came off twice (just had a piece of carpet come loose yesterday), AC vents don't adjust far enough down to not blow on my face, dash reflects in the windshield in sunny conditions, cup holders are kind of small, no adjustable center AC vents, poor AC options (only e.g. have 50/50 split options), mushy cruise control buttons, poor navigation/MFT system, etc. Oh, and my rear driver door isn't painted all the way! It's really a shame, though, because the car itself is solid. I LOVE the drive train. The car handles beautifully, I feel that the handling is crisp and I love driving it. There's plenty of pep to it (hell yeah). In essence, whoever designed the chassis, drive train and related components really hit it out of the park. Whoever designed the interior really missed the mark.
-
I had a few interior panels come loose somehow and I had the dealer reseat them. The interior of my car groans and squeaks non-stop.

Yes, there are screws under the little cover tabs on the mounting base for the visor. I know because I unscrewed mine before to look and see if there was an easy way to fix the shitty visor positioning. You'll have to pull part of the headliner to unplug the wiring for the visor. Best case of action is that someone 3D prints a whole new bracket that is angled (along with an angled mounting hole to make sure the screws line up again. Otherwise, I don't think the screws will seat in the roof straight.

Ford dropping Microsoft Auto in favor of QNX

I hate the infotainment system in the car and I almost never use it. It's clunky, slow and useless. -
What cool hidden feature have you discovered about your C-Max?
bigalpha replied to armoredsaint's topic in General Discussion
Mine didn't cover it either. Luckily, I"m an instruction manual nerd. -
Soooo, break the rear glass and have it replaced with '14 glass. Are the interiors the same as '13?
