    No creaks on our 2013 SEL so I guess they don't all do it.

    Yes that site works as well, here is the link for Recalls on owner.ford.com

    I like using the FordETIS website it has worked well for tracking recalls for the past 2 years. You don't have to login, just enter your vin which your browser stores. Recalls disappear off of the webpage a couple days after they are completed. The Energi bug appeared last year , I just ignore it.

    Press and hold the unlock button on the fob. Works for me.

    That's a great rumor to start!

    Just checked mine. I have about 21k on mine they have been rotated twice. I keep the air at 38 psi. Tread appears to have 3-4/16 left. I would swap fronts with rear and lower pressure. What does the total come to at Costco? Have you been drag racing with a prius? ;)

    If you own a C-MAX you might be over the hill!

    Ease up on the accelerator once you get up to speed and when cresting a hill until it pops into EV.

    This thread had me wondering what would happen if you plugged a mouse and keyboard into the usb port. :)

    At one year old changed the oil with 7000 miles on it and the oil looked clean. Changed to full synthetic and one year later after another 8000 miles oil looked dirty.

    You could try running again in an area where you have high level signal for your phone or using a different phone.

    I visualized a hack application that would read the current gps location data and append the current list of ev+ locations with your current location causing the car to immediately go into ev mode. Since it would be an ev+ location the car already knows how to deal with them without harming the HVB.

    It has taken a couple years but both pieces of carpet on the bottom of the seat backs came completely off. Lots of glue on the back of the carpet but the surface it glues to is very smooth. Maybe a little sandpaper or different type of glue, anyone got a long term solution?

    You should have gotten a message after 1 year to change oil if it was less than 10k miles.

    Same as you 62 & 2, I definitely have more miles than the car.

    Glad you are not paying for that one Paul! Wonder what it is costing Ford.

    Welcome Jeff We live just down the road from you near Cornelius. Try www.mackenzieford.com for your service They did all the recalls successfully for us. Had a bad experience with Doherty.

    Paul, How long is the replacement transmission covered ?
  21. homestead
    Yes it's still there on mine too. I got both checks and just this week got my first 47+ mpg tank since the fall. Was just thinking it's time for Ford to send another check.

    1000 points goes to Fotomoto!

    ICE starting immediately , I hate it when that happens. I think it's trying to warm up the high voltage battery compartment.

    We have had a mild winter in Oregon so far, lately temps have been like spring. Last 2 days over 60 degrees. MPGs going back up. Flowers popping up a month early. Sorry for the nasty winter Northeasterners are getting. Spring is coming!

    Connecting a jumper battery to a low battery may charge it slightly bringing the low battery above the threshold where the car will successfully start.
