  1. just emailed ford and asked and ford told me that they are still processing the check and asked me to wait for up to 60 days. i guess i will not get it by xmas! (toronto) :sad: :doh: :nonono: :rant2: :rant:
  2. thanks for Laurel and Bruce confirmed the payment. i am in toronto and i am still waiting for mine.
  3. thanks for someone confirmed that they received the check. now, just need to figure it out what the sequence is.
  4. another 2 weeks since last update. anyone got the check? or at least anyone know when ford start doing it? any info?
  5. i can confirmed that factory installed remote start exist. my cmax also has it. it is the option 66R.
  6. does the tpms system and traction control on cmax related? i searched on the net and some toyota will not let you disable transaction control if the tpms is disable (i.e., winter tires with no tpms) so without tpms sensors on my winter tires, 1) will my traction control works? 2) can it be turn on/off? 3) any other affects?
  7. another 10 days passed. any canadian got the check???
  8. so today is the 17th. anyone in canada got the check yet?
  9. i have tried. but the dealer said all their cmax in their lot, the light is NOT illuminate!
  10. thanks thanks. however if someone in toronto can post a pic, it will be better. because the dealer can say it is different spec in US.
  11. can your rear wiper open to 90 degrees to the rear windows? mine can only open up to about 20 degrees and i find it is very inconvienient when i try to clean the rear windows. all my old cars rear wiper can be opened to 90 degrees.
  12. hi, guys, i need help from cmax owners in toronto, canada. i have my cmax for couple months. my cmax has park assist and i have using it almost everyday. it works perfectly. But the "park assist button" has never light up when i push the button and turn on park assist. i have always believe that the park assist button is NOT suppose to light up until i saw a youtube video and saw another cmax that the park assist button will actually light up! see video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WDOBde-Vnc @1:40. You will see the park assist button light up when she pushed it. so i brought my cmax to dealership and ask for help, instead they told me it is NOT suppose to light up and i showed him the youtube video and he said that it is a "special effect"!!! now, i am really confused. Is the light suppose ON or OFF? that's why i need your help from toronto. Please check your park assist button and see if it lights up. if it does, can you take a picture and post it here please? so that i have proof to go back my dealership for the "special effect" of my park assist button. thanks in advance for all your help. PS: does your button next to park assist (which is the park sensor off button) also light up or not?
  13. sorry for my poor knowledge of a hybrid car. I am just a regular driver with no knowledge of how a vehicle works. but just out of my curiosity, i have a couple questions and hope someone can help me figure it out 1) on a non hybrid car, all electric power by the 12v batteries, for example: headlights. so if we turn off the car with headlights on, the 12v batteries will drain down. but on the cmax, headlights are powered by the high voltage batteries, how come it still drain down the 12v batteries? 2) why ford did not setup the cmax that, when the 12v batteries drain down, it can be saved and recharged by the high voltage batteries? thanks for help in advance!
  14. i haven't got the check yet. i really interested to know how they send out the check? by vin number? or what?
  15. i am sorry, i must missed it. can you please quote it? thanks.
  16. i know the forum already has a few threads for it. But most of them are for U.S. How about our Canadian owners? any one knows? please post here if you found any news updates. thanks.
  17. i found out that when i used opera browser, it does not work but when i used safari or IE, it works. thanks everyone for helping me.
  18. when did you tried it? i just tried it this morning still does not work for me?
  19. did anyone recently tried etis? i punched in my vin but it shows an application error messages.
  20. i guess your rear view camera has been blocked?
  21. anyone know: 1) will the payment apply to Canadian owners? 2) do you think the new 2014 cmax updates can be applied to our 2013? according to the articles, these are 2014 updates: Ford said today it also plans several other engineering changes to the 2014 C-Max scheduled to go on sale in December: • Gearing changes to enhance transmission drive ratio • New hood seal, front and rear tire deflectors, A-pillar moldings and the addition of rear lift gate deflectors to improve aerodynamics • New engine oil with reduced friction i myself thinks it will be possible, - cmax has 1 speed ecvt so i believe it is a software update for transmission drive ratio? - New hood and other stuffs are physical add on - a different spec engine oil?
  22. do cmax, a hybrid car, needs full synthetic engine oil? since the engine is running "part time", especially on cmax energi, they even had "engine oil condition mode" and running electric most of time...... what do you think?
  23. how to consider as a "correct" update? if the update is "incorrect", does it: 1) not kicks in EV at all above 60mph? OR 2) it will still kicks in EV above 60mph BUT having worst Fuel Economy? (i.e.: pre update is 45mpg and post update is 40mpg??)
