12v Battery replaced today

Interestingly, Costco does not have a suitable battery. Interstate, small dealers, GM, Nissan and Toyota all have T4R size in EFL and AGM batteries.

That's very strange the battery packed it in after not even 3 years, they typically last 5-7 years, I know it's cold where you are (I'm in Toronto), but still you should have got more out of it.
Next time go to Costco, get a battery, even if you don't do it yourself, Costco will do it way cheaper than Ford.

And your brakes too? The rears typically last longer because you get most of your stopping power from the fronts..

I'm 75km west of Toronto and a couple of degrees colder. My 23 is on its 3rd battery now. They are being mismanaged by the defective BMS software, and dying a very early death. We're starting to see the same problem on the 25 batteries, so its still not fixed. A fix is supposed to be out in the first quarter, which ends in 6 days.

I didn't think the 12 volt battery in a hybrid should last less than a 12 volt battery in an ICE. Here's what AI said when I asked it the question......

Precisely why when you do some reading on MTC you'll find it considered an issue.
