I've had my Mach E for about four years and nearly 100k miles. I've never worried about the 80% charging and always charged to 100%. I can't tell a huge difference in the range after four years.

Pros: no huge range difference

Vehicle: Ford Mustang

Mileage: 160000 km

I put in an 850 cca 800 amp battery and the old one (Duracell or something I think) I replaced was a 900cca battery. Old one was h8. I replaced with an h7 because thats what fcp euro said was the right size for my car. That was the issue. Took it out and replaced with and H8 and it was still in limp mode! Got my code reader out and cleared the codes and restarted and everything works great now

Pros: everything works great now

Cons: limp mode

I had the same issue with my MY2024 XL Hybrid constantly going into deep sleep mode. There is a recall for MY2022 and MY2023 Mavericks Hybrids due to a bad 12V battery. I took it to the dealer anyways... After their battery test, mine FAILED and they replaced the 12V with an new AGM battery (free under the OG 3yr/36k mi warranty).

Pros: replaced with AGM battery

Cons: deep sleep mode

Vehicle: Ford Maverick

Duracell [battery] with a 3 year free replacement warranty. Last one failed unusually early, just short of 3 years

Cons: failed unusually early

Warranty covered my 2022 Mach-E battery replacement but it would've cost $12k out of pocket.

Cons: high replacement cost
