2023 Ford Lightning XLT - Dead Battery Pack -

[RacerX98]

Wed 3/26/2025 my "Yellow Wrench" Engine light came on with Reduced Power warning ( Tried charging the battery and only reached 50% capacity). , take truck to Dealer message. Took it Mon 31st because no Lightning techs were available before that. Wed 4/2 got a call that the Battery pack was defective and needed to be replaced. 4/9/2025 Norm Reeves Ford (Cerritos) Called; have not received the Battery yet from Ford. I am documenting this for others because I can see where this is going and perhaps you can compare with your dead battery experiences on Ford EVs.

Call Ford and ask for the BEV group, and confirm that battery pack was ordered via COPIS (Ford's rush system). Get a case number.

Great, not too long a wait. Still wish the delays would only be a couple of days.
For my tracking spreadsheet (see my signature) what is your Build Mo/Yr (on driver's door sticker), ER/SR? and mileage of the problem.
Do you have a recall for the Safety Recall 25S18? HV Battery Electrode Misalignment
