Avoid The 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E on Everyman Driver

[irfanhusein]

Almost 38, 000 miles on my 2021 MachE premium E4x. No problems at all. It’s the best vehicle I’ve ever owned, and yes better than my Tesla model 3

I got my Mach e 7 months ago at msrp. Now at 6k miles. Went on 3 road trips where I used fast chargers (free). My screen rebooted 3 times and it was back in less than a minute. No other issues. I love driving it and recommend it to everyone. I don’t know what CR is talking about.

I have the 2022 California route 1 mach-e with extended battery and I haven't experienced a single issue. Easily my fav vehicle I've ever owned. There were definitely flaws in the first model, but that goes for any product or vehicle for the first roll out. Ford has done a great job in my opinion working out the bugs.

A less clickbait title for this would better communicate the material within the vid.

I have a 2022 Mach E California Route 1 and have experienced no issues. As of this week I have owned the car for one year. The car is too much fun to drive or to have it drive you. I highly recommend this vehicle if you are willing to wait on it because it took me almost one year to get mine.

Consumer Reports has jumped the gun on its new model recommendations for decades. In the 70's they gave a top pick recommendation for the Dodge Aspen and Plymouth Volare that brought new meaning to the phrase "instant depreciation." The cars had a number of mechanical, electrical and body hardware problems that took years to resolve. They're best for looking at an established model's performance over a several year period.

I have a 2021 Mustang Mach e Premium and I've never experienced a problem. I think the problem is people are buying the car with very little experience with new technology. They complain about things that are easily solvable if they knew how to get around tech problems.

I once owned a Ford Escort which I purchased new. Years after my purchase, I began reading Consumers Report magazine. All the problems I had with that vehicle was listed by the magazine. I’ve been a subscriber since.😅

[pikaskew]

Consumer Reports definitely got their metrics messed up on this one. On my second Mach-E now, no issues with either..it’s a great car and stellar safety

[iseewood]

So one EV gets kicked off the recommend list and 6 gas cars get kicked off the list and people are saying EV’s aren’t ready for prime time? 🤨

We own a ‘22 Mach E. Best car we’ve ever owned. Little phone/CarPlay connectivity glitches here and there just like Audi, BMW and VW cars we’ve owned. Smooth ride and high reliability in my experience.

I am driving a 2021 Mach-E for the last 18 month. There were some minor hiccups in the beginning (ist model) and all the issues are addressed by Ford. At this point in time probably it is one of the best car I ever drove.

[jelloMohnny]

I'd say the opposite - the cars with issues were the 2021s and the mid-year 2022s. After June the 2022s got much better, and the 2023s have the bugs worked out. I'm not sure why CR even tries to guess future reliability with completely new platforms.

[Channelofdk]

I test drove one yesterday and believe the dealer said they get a 100k warranty so who the hell cares w some bugs as long as they hold true to their warranty.

[Deetroiter]

I think the price of these vehicles is more a problem than anything you might actually experience with the vehicle itself

[jamesseay]

Just took delivery of my new 23 MME GTPE; traded in my 21 MME Premium. No issues with either; love them both.

[josephdan]

Hahahaha this is some kind of bad joke. Ford Mustang Mach E is best full electric Suv period. I will buy one thank you very much.

[johnbyers]

I've had my mustang mach-e since July 2021. It has been a reliable daily driver and costs $30 to 40 a month to charge. The recalls have been handled by the dealer with no problems. The biggest problem is finding a good dealer and technician, it's like digging through a box of dead flashlight batteries, you just know they can't all be bad.

[marryellen]

Major problem with the Ford Mustang's Mach - E trunk. There is NO drain. Any rain water that get in there stays. The trunk is slopped so any water run forward on to the car floor.

[tracyreed]

I have a MME 2021 and I have had only minor issues and it has 30k miles on it now. The issue is Ford dealers they don’t know the MME, they don’t want to service MME and they aren’t helpful when you have issues. I would like to know how many of the 300k consumer surveys where from owners of an MME. I have a Consumer subscription and I didn’t get a survey? Many people assume EV’s are plug and play. MOVE ON NO STORY HERE!!!!
