bad battery module

[TaxmanHog]

There's a post somewhere that showed the invoice cost for the various sizes of battery modules, but I can't seem to find it now.

ER modules

I get about $40,400 for the ER battery module parts from this list (1 of part #1 + 8 of part #2). I also got an unofficial estimate from a Ford dealership at about $49,000 for a total ER battery pack replacement.

Right, the top of the list on that URL shows complete pack cost, but it's more likely we'll experience one or so module failures not all nine of them.

module failures mainly been 2022s?

Yes, 2022's more likely, 2023's somewhat, but disturbing to see 2024's show up. It seems that @Ford Motor Company quality control has not got the message yet. Somehow warranty costs are being absorbed by the shareholders.

Do you know what happens to the old module? I assume there is only one cell that is bad and someone will refurbish it and it will make it back into another lightning. Can you take your old module with you, replace the bad cell and keep it for the next failure?

I don't know for certain, as in official policy.

Based on my view of various sources ie. Munro videos and similar, the cells within the module might be sent to reclamation processing facilities, the cells are ground down and precious metals are recovered to be use in secondary battery manufacturing.

I think it's "difficult" for the cell stacks to be disassembled without damage to the collector tabs.

What do you think @MickeyAO ?

I agree. Seeing some 2024s there certainly is concerning.

Just picked up my truck a few days ago after 22-days at the dealership for replacement of battery module #6. My invoice listed the repair cost total at just over $4,000. About half of that was the battery module.

Is module 6 smaller than others?

Do you know if the labor is covered if this happens in year 3-8?

And if you are happy with your dealer’s service, please share where you got it done.

p.s. I hope you are not hit too hard by current events (your job).

#9 is the small unit, #6 is a large unit.

I could live with $4K in 200K miles. I would keep it even with 40% drop in range.

I could live with $4K

This number may be meaningless since it is warranty work paid by Corporate.
