powertrain malfunction with 100% power.

[Ford Motor Company]

After raving about how flawless my ride has been, today I got the wrench. I read some of the related threads where people had bad modules and shifter issues but I still can't tell which group of unfortune owners I belong to. Here is the short story;

I left the driveway in rain and 4 minutes later I got the wrench but my power was at 100%. Dropped to 95% later at night. I tried the wistful thinking thing (turned off the power and back on twice). The wrench went away. I plugged in for a minute to see if it charges OK. It seemed fine. Got back on the road and wrench came back in less than 3 minutes. I checked the voltage variation with carscanner and it didn't look too bad. I ran the trouble codes (attached) and I have no idea what I am looking at or should be looking at.

Background: At 10K service and recall visit, service advisor told me the mechanic said your battery is borderliner. I assume one of the cells may have been high or low but not bad enough.

I have been almost exclusively Level 2 charging but a few weeks ago I had 6 DCFC in one week.

I tried to charge the truck for just a minute and it charged OK. It drives fine too.

Did any of you have similar symptoms? Is it a battery module? Shifter? Something does not like the moisture? A bad sensor?…. any ideas?

Sorry to not provide anything groundbreaking here, but suggest taking it to your dealer. If you send me some details via DM (VIN, dealership, etc.) I will flag it with our engineering team so they can support the dealer as needed. We'll get you sorted!

I saw your message right after I DMed you. Thanks for reaching out.

Does that mean if this part has a design flaw, it has not been fixed? In other words, if they fixed it, would it have a different part number in 25 than it did in 23?

I have an appointment in a week. After it is done, I will post the results to confirm what he problem was.

I'm not aware of any revisions to the design/build/materials from the original part, but they will alter the PN if they do. Those which have failed might be 1 in a million defects and the vast majority of gears are suitable for long life service ..... OR NOT.....

I keep my fingers crossed that is indeed the case and as my mama told me I am just that special.

Has anyone have had coolant diverted valve replaced but didn’t have clicking sound coming out of it. I don’t hear any clicks and my shifter acts OK too. What else can it be?

There have been a few reports of the valve being replaced, but I don't recall if they heard clicking, hopefully they find this thread and comment about what lead up to the replacement.
