.... Charge method using a quality Charge Cord on level 2 with 230 volts trips the unit circuit regularly. Have actually purchased two separate Very well-rated Charge Cords. It trips on either Charge Cord and FORD says: Well just charge with the supplied 120 Volt Charge Cord. We are NOT impressed. There is absolutely nothing wrong with our 230 Volt 50 AMP Service.

Is it the EVSE that is tripping? Or the Escape itself? Either way, it's the charger onboard the escape that actually controls how much current is being pulled. The EVSE just tells the Escape what the current limit of the EVSE is, which should be below the limit of the circuit it's plugged into. So if it's pulling too much current, Either the EVSE is signaling a higher current than it should be, or the Escape's charger is pulling more current than it should be.

And, of course, the wind noise. Oh my God, that wind noise! I hate it so much. Sometimes it starts even at 50km/h but it's almost unbearable when I am driving above 80km/h.

I didn't notice any in particular when I demo'd a 2021 hybrid. Personally I found the loudest noise to be the tires. I drove it up to 100km/h. I honestly struggled to even hear the engine on it to tell if it was running when on city streets.
Any idea what part of the car the wind noise is coming from?
