    FAQs

    What is Plug & Charge?

    With Plug & Charge technology, you can automatically pay for charging by simply plugging in at a participating public charging station, eliminating the need to use smartphones or credit cards (Plug & Charge feature is available at most Electrify America stations). To get started, all you need to do is activate your access to the BlueOval™ Charge Network at Ford.com/ConnectedServices and use the FordPass App to find and activate chargers. After you turn on your Plug & Charge feature in the FordPass App, participating stations will be able to communicate with your electric vehicle and bill you accordingly.

    How do I know if my Ford Connected Charge Station is working?

    First, make sure it is installed by a licensed electrician. Visit Qmerit Charging to find installation services in your area. When you are charging, make sure the charger is flush with the charge port.

    Why is my car saying it’s 100% charged but the range isn’t what I expected?

    The vehicle may be 100% charged while the Intelligent Range displayed is higher or lower than your expectations. Several factors can affect the estimated range that is displayed, including outside temperature, your driving behavior and more. Check out this article for tips on how to maximize your range.

    What charge level should I set my vehicle to?

    For most Ford electric vehicles, the recommended charge level is 90%. Avoid charging to 100% when you don’t need that range, though 100% charge is recommended for longer trips.

    How do I order and install a Ford Connected Charge Station?

    The Ford Connected Charge Station is available to purchase through the Ford Chargers website. Requires installation by a licensed electrician. Visit Qmerit Charging to find installation services in your area.

    What do I do if I am storing my all-electric vehicle long-term?

    Make sure you start your vehicle at least once every 15 days. When away, leave it plugged in to allow the 12-volt battery to maintain charge and ensure it always has a minimum charge of 50%.
