After purchasing my used 22 Lariat Hybrid with 35k miles on it a few months ago I've recently seen the wrench light a few times so I hooked up forscan and pulled the DTCs. For the experts (and curious here) here is what Ive found. A few questions first: 1) It does not seem so but are any of...

Yep! Thats It! This image from the recall documentation gave it away: Thank so very much!

So, today I replaced my ?factory? (well, ford) 12v battery with a new AGM battery because the old battery was not staying charged and the truck went into sleep mode on the daily. When I removed the old battery it appears as though the (old) positive battery cable was cut and replaced. More...

Thanks so much! Sorry about the antagonist here who is goading me. I have placed him on my ignore list so that should stop. While I have your valued attention, I'll be changing my factory 12v flooded battery this week to an AGM battery. I'll charge it on the bench before installing then will...

Thanks very much for the helpful response! So, what are your thoughts on ForScan Type=AGM when a flooded battery is installed from the factory?

I am seeing charge voltages of my 12v battery reaching 15.2 volts! I don't think I have ever seen a charging voltage that high. Its typically capped at 14.8v. Why is the DC to DC charger charging my battery at (up to) 15.2v? Wont that damage the battery? Is there a way to adjust this...

Mine does the same thing. Currently running factory flooded battery, ForScan says SOC=80 and Type=AGM. This battery is now toast so Ive ordered an AGM. However, I'm very concerned with this charge voltage. Ive never (in 50 years) seen a charge voltage much over 14.8. Now Im looking to see...

Are you seeing it with the same passenger rear seat light gray?

Can someone please tell this noob why the rear driver seat is 'dark gray' while the rear passenger seat is 'light gray' (see image)? Seats are unoccupied and I am driving down the road (well, actually at a stoplight of course but in the process of driving to work)...

Awesome, THANKS! I've ordered a battery monitor so that I can monitor the charge/discharge rate to get a better look at what's going on. Ive seen several of these Amazon AGM batteries at very reasonable prices. As these generally carry 3 year replacement warranties what could we expect the...

Thanks so much. Any recommendations on a good battery maintainer, please?

Thanks for the info! What plug-in battery monitor are you using, please?

What battery (make/model) did you buy, please? Pics?

I'm a 62 year old first time Mav owner. I only recently purchased my 2022 Lariat Hybrid with 34k miles on it. Great shape and $3k below KBB so I'm quite pleased with it. Of course I'm learning of the problems with both the platform as well as my specific vehicle. The first few days of use...
