MUSTANG MACH-E: 18 MONTHS OF MAINTENANCE AND RECALLS

EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive overview of the maintenance and recall experiences with a 2022 Ford Mustang Mach-E after 18 months and approximately 13,000 miles. The owner details the scheduled maintenance, which is minimal, primarily involving tire rotation and multi-point inspections every 12 months or 10,000 miles. The bulk of the video focuses on two significant recalls: the '22 S41 contactor weld issue, initially addressed with a software update and later transitioning to a hardware recall for certain models, and the '23B50 customer satisfaction program concerning the battery charger control module. The reviewer also discusses a peculiar fishy smell issue that was resolved after a dealer visit and a '22B28 customer satisfaction program for heating system output. Despite two dealer visits and a recall notice mix-up due to paperwork, the owner reports a positive overall maintenance experience, with most costs covered by Ford Pass Reward Points, effectively resulting in $0 out-of-pocket expenses for services. The reviewer concludes that for an EV, maintenance largely consists of charging and washer fluid, with software updates being crucial for addressing recalls and satisfaction programs.
