Ford F150 Lightning
2022 Lightning with 16K miles started having a charging fault at 65%, battery capacity is at 57%.
I have a service appointment in 20 days, that’s the soonest they could fit me in.
My questions are: will I damage my batteries over the next 20 days by continuing to charge them to 65% when the charging fault occurs? Should I set my target charge to 60%? Or should I just drop the truck off at the dealership now and get a loaner?

Other members in the situation have been able to nurse it along as long as you don't have extensive travel demands.

No, it won’t hurt it. Like @TaxmanHog said, you may just won’t to stay local.

I hate to see these 2022’s having issues after all this time and with about 16000 mi. I have one and it’s at 14000. This the only thing that keeps me on edge with my truck. 🙁

Same issue with mine. At 42000 miles. Have an appointment on Monday.
60 percent doesn’t cut it for me in the winter plus it wouldn’t charge at a super charger either
Ugh
