Check my spreadsheet linked in my signature below and do a find for "57%" and you can see a number of reports. For some it is a bad cell in a battery module, and for others it can be a different cause. Most of these listed in the main thread for PM/RP since 2022. https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/powertrain-malfunction-reduced-power.12873/
@powercatnewt , what is your build date shown on the drivers door sticker? miles?
oh man, if I had seen this spreadsheet before buying I would of ran for the hills. Purchased a 24 Flash 2 days ago and "Powertrain malfunction" has appeared on my dash. It doesn't appear that I have reduced power but I'm also still learning all the displays. My gear shift also does not fold down so I'm hoping it's just that?

Chances are good it’s not a battery module. Nearly if not all that have had that failure have seen power reductions down in the 60-50% range.
