Mid 2023 model here, haven’t had any issues so far.

*knocks wood*

 

[Justin says...]

I wonder what other issues Ford quietly fixes from year to year that isnt shown in any changelogs.

I bought mine in Aug 2023 and got the deep sleep warning in the app a few days ago for the first time.
Most likely because of the cold, it was only sitting outside for a day.

I normally don't drive Mon-Wed and have never had that issue when the weather was fine.

lol no.

My 2024 Lariat lives in deep sleep. Usually the the notification within 30 minutes of parking no-matter how long I drive it. Bad battery I think.

Highly unlikely but only time will tell.

They won't "fix" it when CAFE requirements exist. It's keeping the 12v battery charged as minimally as possible on the Ecoboost since the alternator operating causes more load on the system and lower fuel efficiency. The hybrid system also steps and directs high voltage down to 12v to charge the 12v battery so the more it charges the 12v the less energy that's available for the traction motors which means more use of the ICE and lower overall fuel mileage. Many manufacturers do this, most have a way of overriding, apparently you cannot raise the 12v SOC threshold in the system with Forscan which is too bad. In Ford's eyes this isn't a problem with them, it's a YOU problem, hence their direction for you to take it for a long drive....

 

[RR - All the way]

Jest you surely!!!! Also wondering, is Ford still "modifying" the shutter system in '24 MY hybrids to "fix" the fire problem???

Does your vehicle still start after receiving the deep sleep notification?

They seemed to have fix them from the second half of '22 onward. Most of our drives are less that 5 miles, in colder weather, with the truck sitting for a week or so at a time and it's never once had this issue in 15 months.

Just a pure guess here, but after seeing the issues so frequently posted here since basically the trucks initial deliveries I am of the thought that some of it depends of which suppliers parts are in the bins for that production day. It seems so random that many are plagued with the issues and many with no issues at all. I also think sometimes that the software programming is related. Who Knows, my thoughts are all speculation but maybe as good of a guess as any.

Yeah, it starts with no issue. Just takes a nap every time I park it.

I'll contact my dealer at some point but I'm not worried about it right now.

When was yours made?

When was yours made?

I have the windowsticker and VIN, but I don't have the original ford order number.

How do I find out?
