I had a 5 day trip last week and left it sitting at the airport with a fully charged jump starter if needed. I had no issues when I returned. I suspect fully charging the battery with a maintainer may be the way to go until Ford has a solution.
I have the 2.0 Ecoboost with the 12 volt. Mine went into deep sleep with the no start issue. I tried a charger and just got alternating blinking lights yellow then green. It would not take a charge until after I jump started the truck. I drove 20 plus miles at highway speeds then hooked up...
Update. I neglected to say, after getting it started I drove it a little over 20 miles at highway speeds and then hooked up the maintainer/charger. It still took about 48 hours for the light to turn green indicating the battery is fully charged.
This is apparently not just a hybrid problem. I picked up my 2.0 ecoboost in December. No real issues until this AM. I put the key in to start and NOTHING! My Ford pass said it was in deep sleep. I only have a charger maintainer here. I hooked that up but the green and yellow lights just...
Posted the following to an earlier request
Ordered 6/29/2021. Heard nothing for weeks. 9/3 Dealer emailed a vin number. 10/13 The window sticker appeared on the tracking site with build date of 10/22. 11/09 site said shipped with estimate of delivery of 11/25 to dealer. 11/27 delivery changed...
You can order the cover for the 2020? Ford Escape from your dealer if you have the ecoboost 2.0. You will also need two additional bolts. I ordered one after I saw it elsewhere on one of these forums. Should be around $100

IT'S HERE!! Took the pic 30 minutes after it showed up at the dealer. I happened to see it as I drove by..
picking up this morning. Website still says in transit.
Actually, Sgtlip may be correct. One of the reasons Henry began using the assembly line was the speed of production even with building errors. His reasoning(very simplified) was if he could build 12 units with one discard for flaws in the same time he could build and sell 9 units at say...
Ordered 06/29/2021. Confirmed with dealer the same day. Have still never gotten an email from Ford. The dealer emailed a Vin# to me early September and and expected delivery the week of November 8th. Sometime in the last week my window sticker was posted on the Ford tracking site. I guess...
Just to give some hope. The one thing consistant here is inconsistancy. Placed my order 6/29. I have NEVER gotten an email from Ford, even after I called them and was told I should start getting them in a couple of business days. That was mid July. The tracking site only says order received...
Never got an email, on the Ford order tracking site it only shows they have an order no build or under construction. However, just talked to my dealer. He says mine is scheduled for delivery the
week of 11/8/2021. Wonders never cease.
"That base truck includes a hybrid-electric drivetrain comprising a 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle gas four-cylinder backed by Ford’s first in-house designed and manufactured electric motor."
Actually, I said nothing about the drivetrain, which is of course different than the powertrain. Ford has in...
It's unfortunate, but not really surprising. There are multiple articles about EV batteries having production supply problems, and some on reliablity. That's the main reason I went with the 2.0 from the beginning. For all of the hype, new technology has issues. Most on this site probably...
I think I might agree with 22mav. A while back I got pulled over driving my ICE. The deputy said "Thank you for stopping, I would have never caught you". Perhaps slow is a relative term.
Update: Got an email today that I have a Vin#. Not from, Ford but from my dealer. I entered my order number and the Vin on the order tracker site. My order does show up. No build date as of yet. I still have never received an email form Ford.
