Powertrain malfunction

[Pro23-dead-at-960-miles]

New 150 Pro Sr 23 had sensor recall replaced day prior. Then this message and truck went to limp mode. Next day I called dealer and got appointment 4 weeks out in July. They said to have it towed.

I went to move the truck to a better spot for tow truck and there were no warnings and the Vehicle Health changed from Alert to Good. I see the software was updated.

What just happened?

Is the truck reliable?

Keep an eye on it and don't panic.

I had the same on-again/off-again powertrain malfunction warning. Truck never behaved any differently. The repair ended up being a module that controls transmission shifting. No issues since.

Could be first signs of a battery cell issue or it may have been an issue with the update and has reset itself and may never show up again.

Stay cool and have a Dos Equis.

Or Ocho Equis if you're really freaked out

Please snap shot the UPDATES screen, curious to see what you got.

BTW, on occasion many of us have experienced ~temporary~ glitches right after an update, often the truck returns to normal and never throws another code.

If you're really interested in what went wrong post up in the VIN CHECK thread.
