It’s ford smart charging system. Unless you drive the car for at least a hour the battery will never fully charged.Does anyone know how to do a screen shot on an Android phone?
The Battery Sense App for Android phones is nowhere near as nice as the IOS app. It lacks a lot of the features and only gives you graphs for State of Charge.
When I hooked up the battery sense to my 2020, it showed the battery state of charge at 76%. I charged the battery to 100% and 4 days later it was at 77%. It looks like this car is going to need a lot of recharging, if it just sits around. It looks like Ford finally found a way to compete with the Corvette.
I think in 2012 Ford changed the charging system so the computer controls how much the alternator charges the battery. It a gas mileage thing. On one of the F150 sites they talk about how to fix it so the computer no longer controls the charging system.
