2014 C-Max Energi w/ 80,000 miles. I used to get 22-24 miles on battery only. I now get only 12 miles battery only. Anyone else have this problem? Solution?

Yes, same with my 2015 Engergi with 65k miles. The 8 year warranty is out for me in September. I’m hoping they’ll replace the battery.

Yes. I used to get more than the 13-14 mi. I get today. Plus, am starting to experience a lot less power over all. Like, it used to be more sensitive . To my touch on the door handle. That unlocked it electronically. Has a new small battery. Keep thinking the battery terminal connections need to be cleaned/serviced. Because yesterday,the electronics almost seemed to stall. As I was waiting out a stop light. The radio did almost quit. Which keeps recurring. Intermitenly. Seems to me to be a bigger problem, than just a fuse or relay? Mine is a 2013,with 50,000 miles. Both battery terminals clean and tight.

In the old days.....we'd say. It probably needed a new voltage regulator. Like when the car was idling. With the lights on. And when you step on the accelerator the lights..."brighten". Because of the increased rpm,and subsequent voltage increase? To be honerst the car has been sitting for a while. Am disabled and don't get around very well. Today.
