2024 XLT, 6500 miles
I had to take the truck in to a body shop after a rock was thrown through my window. While the truck was with them (3 day period) I started getting battery saver notifications on the app.
Started fine on pickup, drove it the next day with no issues, then a dead dash and no start the next morning. Ford roadside comes and jumps it, says the battery has a full charge.
No issues for a week until I drop off the truck for scheduled maintenance with my dealer, including BCM recall. On pickup the Truck is in same dead dash/Deep Sleep mode. I have to jump start again.
Both times I'm getting strange errors post jump start, like Hill Start Assist Unavailable (may have been park assist ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I hit OK pretty quick)
Prior to having the truck repaired/serviced I had 0 issues with the battery
After having perused the threads here for a bit it seems that I could potentially solve this by swapping the battery out form an agm battery or installing a trickle charger or retraining the computer. In the meantime I bought a new jump pack.
I'm hoping that this won't become a long-term issue, but if it does persist is there anything in particular I need to express to the dealer's service department to get a better fix in place than jump start the truck twice a week?
