Battery Drain when towed as an RV Dingy

Asked by Douglas Jul 03, 2018 at 08:37 PM about the 2017 Ford C-Max Energi

Question type: General

I understand the C Max is great unless you tow it behind an RV 4 wheels down, where the batteries seem to be dead after towing for several hours.

Is there a fix for this

Looking to buy one and trying to make sure changes may have been made

Thanks
