Software Error May Cause Loss of Drive Power
A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
If your vin...
I can't find that part online existing for the hybrid.... Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.
All I am able to find is something close but it's for the Ecoboost.
...then again Ford chat confirmed somehow.
That swoop over the headlights should have never existed and instead that area be part of the new grille.
It looks so tacky as is though I'll reserve fill judgement once I see lower trim levels.
Swoop on top of everything color matched... Is just too much
Looks like a easy swap if anyone ever tries. No way any mounting structure is different.
Also, some of the old vs new pics are pretty bad. At least do a lariat or BAP for a good comparison. Wheels make a huge difference
Reminds me of the time I was in a hurry to finish my brake pads late in the evening and put them in backwards...on both front wheels.
Very nice sound it had when I went for a test drive.
Well, this is I'm starting to think normal for a Ford. Look up f150 for 2022, 2023....

The documents posted on NHTSA state the following

You think it affects new builds Jan/Feb timing ?
I'd think it does, but the way Ford words it is unclear . 8k units ... With 24m production beginning late 23 seems low.
It does say that your vehicle received an update recently. So this is a fix to the "fix"
Well folks, looks like the limp mode issues are about to be gone (hopefully)
If your check engine light came on, drive to the dealer and drop it off if you don't want it towed.
Make a note you pulled codes for a misfire that way they don't play it down and say it was something minor. Dealer love to play games.
Gotta ask, limp mode. Did it start after doing some recalls ? It's been reported that one of the recalls that people got done around March timing was bad and since a update to fix the big has been released.
