Mine too about 48 hours. However, this was NOT a continuous charge. I disconnected the charger a few times to do some errands and I just wanted to drive the car!
I've had my car for one week and put about 110 miles on her - mostly city driving. Gas mileage up to 14.3 mpg. I've had zero problems with the computers - so far.
Brand new car! Owned less than a week.
Remember all the electronics in the car. Some keep running after the car is shut off. WiFi for updates, motion alarm system, Lord knows what else.
No. I was heading the problem "off at the pass". I had read about the problems and the possible reason. It all came down to an insufficiently charged battery. The parasitic current drain doesn't help.
I have had my GT for just under 1 week. I checked the parasitic current drain shortly after coming home. It was about 400 Ma (.4 amps). However, The car had been shut off for only a few minutes and I had removed my key fob from the vicinity so as to not trigger any accessories.
Today after...
Are you sure? I am new to this and the first time I tried it and did what you suggested. What came up was maps from my iPhone. I was unable to save a destination as a favorite which alerted me to the problem.
However, the next time I accessed the map, the built-in nav popped up and I was able...
OK. Thanks!
So the only extra cost services are:
Connected Built-in Navigation (trial expires 4/4/27)
Alexa Built-in - Not interested.
Ford Premium Connectivity - Not interested.
I hope the Connected Built-in Navigation includes free map updates. I know the Subaru WRX allowed 1 or 2 free...
I don't see in in the FordPass app, but then I'm just starting the trial as well.
I'm just trying to plan. Apparently I cannot save favorite destination on my "connected device" (iPhone). I can even with a custom name using the "Connected Navigation".
In reading the user manual, it looks like the "Connected Navigation" (car GPS) is NOT free. On page 425, it looks like it's either a 90 day or possibly 3-year trial and then after that you must signup to use it. If that is the case, that stinks.
Is this the case?
I want to use the car's built-in navigation instead of what is on my iPhone. The problem is I can only do this if my iPhone is powered off.
Is there a way i can "prefer" the car's built-in navigation?
I'm still learning the basics. Right now I've got everything I'm not sure about, turned on. I'll come back and start turning them off one-by-one to see the effect - if any on the Ford App.
