A Thorough Review of the Ford Plug-In Hybrid's Convenient Features
What sets apart Ford's range of Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) from their competition is their distinct emphasis on user convenience and safety. Every Ford PHEV model comes pre-equipped with a dedicated 120-volt charging cord, designed for easy plug-in at home, or any appropriate outlet location. However, Ford's commitment to creating a user-friendly electric vehicle experience doesn't stop there. The PHEV range hosts a myriad of intelligent features and details crafted to help Ford PHEV owners make the most of their vehicles. Our Corpus Christi, Portland, Robstown, Aransas Pass, Rockport, Kingsville, Sinton, Port Aransas, Ingleside, and Alice, TX dealerships are thrilled to help you explore these amazing features.
Understanding Your Ford PHEV's Charging Features
The charging cord of Ford PHEVs, tucked away neatly in the trunk beneath the carpeted floor panel, is easily accessible in every model. Each vehicle also features a charging coupler that, when properly attached, locks into the charging port with a reassuring “click”, letting you know you've hit the mark.
The real innovation in Ford's PHEV series, however, lies in its charge port LED lights. This attention to detail ensures clear, easily understood visual indicators of the vehicle's current charging status. From zero to one hundred percent, the LED lights offer explicit confirmation of the charging level at each quarter increment, using a combination of solid and pulsing lights. In addition, the default setting allows the port lights to illuminate at the press of the unlock button on your key fob or open the doors.
However, customization is also an option, with users able to change charge port light preferences using the vehicle's touchscreen. Users have the option to disable lighting entirely, should they wish for a more unobtrusive charging experience.
Comprehensive Service for Your Ford PHEV
In the event of any faults or problems, Ford PHEVs are designed to provide clear identifiers. Multiple LED indicators on the charging cord alert users to any issues swiftly, with specific indicators for ground fault circuit interrupter faults (a flashing or solid red triangle LED), or high temperature at the AC plug (a flashing amber LED light in the outlet plug shape), giving clear commands for when it is necessary to enlist the services of a qualified electrician.
For any troubleshooting or more invasive maintenance tasks necessary, our Ford service centers at Corpus Christi, Portland, Robstown, Aransas Pass, Rockport, Kingsville, Sinton, Port Aransas, Ingleside, and Alice, TX, are staffed by highly trained technicians who are fully versed in the needs of PHEV vehicles, and are committed to ensuring your vehicle receives the best possible attention and care.
