Previously posted was the NHTSA link and the "Chronology" report of fires that led Ford to investigate further. Snip below of the "involved components" (from Recall 573 Report) look like module part numbers, not the complete battery pack? But still, the replacements probably will depend on serial numbers of the modules with these component part numbers, as suggested by others.

I cannot find the NL38-10C779- numbers, can you?

Correct I could not find that number as photo posts show previously, I suspect not all parts are listed on the part service web sites.

My post was regarding @Hammick desire for an entire pack swap, IMHO that won't happen, just posting the information about the part number for a complete pack, {NOT} discussed in the recall / field service action

I will be demanding an entire new battery pack. I'm not interest in having my battery tray removed again just to replace one module. Been there before.

Interesting as there is no fix and we are being told don't charge past 80%


Campaign/NHTSA#
25S18/25V131
Issue Date
2025-02-28
Description
On your vehicle, it may be possible for an internal short circuit in the high voltage battery to occur after repeated charge and discharge cycles.
Safety Risk
If a short circuit occurs after repeated charge and discharge cycles, there is an increased risk of a vehicle fire. Owners can reduce this risk by limiting charging of the high voltage battery to 80 percent state of charge before new battery arrays are installed in your vehicle.
Remedy
Parts are not available. Ford Motor Company is working to provide parts for this repair. When the remedy becomes available, Ford Motor Company will notify you via mail to schedule a service appointment with your dealer for repairs to be completed free of charge. The remedy is anticipated to be available in the second quarter of 2025.

Hmmmm. I'm Obi66 with a blend date of 5/22/22. I haven't gotten a recall and I just checked. Was at dealer last week doing the CSP 24B56 and 24P24 (both were software reinstalls). It did destroy my ability to add my Home as a charging location..... still working on that one. I read on another forum that cycling the 12V might fix it. No word on the recall you mentioned above.

I think there are still trucks that won't be affected, even though the date ranges cover a very wide range of production, not all of us have defective cells in our modules.

The blend date on my early ‘22 Lariat was 4/27/2022. So far Ford has not put me on this recall list.

OTOH I have already had two modules replaced (#7 & #9) in 23k miles.

 

[Grumpy2]

Isn't this the same issue in Canada? 216 vehicles

I have faith Ford Motor Co will make us whole. Hang in there.

Ford is experiencing a learning curve, no doubt.

I wish they would have used 2170 Panasonic steel cased cells, but here we are.

Maybe the modules that were replaced were the ones potentially subject to this issue, they analyzed the returned modules finding this problem.
