Battery only charging to 95%

[carstocks2]

This is my first post, and I'm a newer proud owner of a 2013 Fusion Energi Titanium with 24k miles. I bought the car at a Ford dealer CPO ed about 5 weeks ago. I love the car and am getting better and better at increasing its efficiency ( more like my driving it efficiency) everyday.

 

The one issue I'm having lately is that after a full charge, my dash shows that the battery is only charging to 95%. When I first got the car, it was ALWAYS 100% after a charge with a few exceptions showing 99%.

 

My driving conditions haven't changed ( I live in south Florida and it's still close to 90 degrees everyday). Any ideas?

 

Thanks for you're help

 

Mike

At 24k and within a month of ownership?

 

I'm not sure that's it but thanks. It is a 2013 that went into service Aug of 2013. Thanks for the response though

Two year old Nissan Leafs ( EV car ) typically have 85-95% battery capacity remaining.

I think this is a question better suited for the Energi forum - I think mine has done the same thing since it's been new, which is show max of 95% on the dash but does show up to 100% on MFM. Post over there and see what experiences others have had.

Thanks for all who suggested the Energi Forum. I didn't know there was a separate area on here for the Energi. Thanks for all of your help. This seems to be a very informative and friendly forum. Unlike many other car forums I belong to.

You are more then welcome to stick around even if you have the FFE. Most parts are identical anyway. :)
