  1. We had rear wiper fluid tubes pull apart in the front passenger ceiling liner and caused fluid to pool on the passenger seat floorboard area. Just had to push the tubes back together in the ceiling under the liner.
  2. Yes mine is a hybrid. So energi's may have more headroom with the hvb.
  3. I think this is a normal situation for C-max. My car's timer was 10 min. after installing new battery and BMS reset and a few years later it is down to 2-3 minutes. No problems even last year when it was hardly driven. Original battery was working fine but was replaced because it was 5 yrs old.
  4. Your picture of the windshield on top driver side looks just like my car. Windshield was replaced a few years ago. I watched them change it, There was no trim at the top just lots of sealant. Ours doesn't leak.
  5. tcesni, Was the mileage driven mostly highway miles or city?
  6. What version of sync did you update to? You might try pulling sync/radio fuses. My car shuts sync down to save power less than 5 minutes after turning car off.
  7. Question for Paul; What kind of mpg's do you get in just the hybrid mode after the ev batteries are depleted on the phev escape?
  8. Sounds like it is stuck in low. Mine does that sometimes if accidentally stick it in low.
  9. Yikes, glad you are ok. Did the deer survive?
  10. I would check the brakes. Probably can only hear it at low speed.
  11. Paul Does the 47 miles on EV include any coasting in neutral or drafting?
  12. I think my car is down to 2 minutes but have never had any battery issues. Not even close to thinking about replacing it. I think it is about 3 or 4 yrs old. The shut-off period is probably determined by time since the battery was last reset not the battery condition.
  13. What version of sync 2 are you running? I think I was running 3.8 or 3.10 when I did mine and it worked ok.
  14. Looked on https://www.cargurus.com they show 10 pages of plug-in escapes now nationwide.
  15. Perhaps the Escape is quieter so it doesn't seem like you are going as fast? How long does it take to charge the HVB on 120v?
  16. Just the audio on the radio goes out for me every thing else is normal. Sync 2 2013
  17. Another heat wave coming this week have to remember to crack the windows so heat doesn't build up so much. Sounds like it would be a difficult problem to troubleshoot other than swapping out the radio.
  18. Tried it some more , a few pages load most do not. Plus it is very slow.
  19. Noticed the forum was down yesterday for a while, did you add some of the old energi records?
  20. Yeah you have been very patient with Ford. ?
  21. Looked on ebay, all the sellers were from China except for one. $550 to upgrade my 2013 SEL. My Sync 2 is currently working but a little flaky and need to pull the fuse once in a while. If it dies I think I'll upgrade to Sync 3 rather than repair what I have.
  22. Welcome middleofnowhere. How is your HVB holding up? How many miles on the car now?
