OP said battery temp was normal. Overheating would show. Op also said it felt like we hit something. Although low possibility, we should consider the possibility that something did find an uncovered weak point and got to the battery. I have had a couple of EGO batteries that got fat and...

Rivian R1T (original) had a flashlight in the door with one 2170 battery cell in it. Its battery pack had 7776 cells in it. An R1T owner should be 7776 times more worried about the pack catching on fire than they are about their flashlight.

If ford knows what happened and does not share, they contribute to that fear with uncertainty we all have. I have no option to park the truck somewhere safe. It is parked right next to my house and next to two ICE and my neighbor’s house. With a fire like this, several houses could be in...

Yup, like a pop up door handle. I love my Lightning traditional door handle.

what is your latest update? if it is, this means in the past few days we have had 200% increase in the risk of our trucks committing suicide. Numbers tell a different story to the pessimist than it does to optimist.

I am thinking 12V fire wouldn’t heat up the HVB to start a chain reaction as fast as this fire seem to have spread.

I have been keeping a Noco lithium Ion jumper fully charged in my frunk. We don’t know what caused this fire but if it was 12V battery, that makes me a little uneasy about keeping the jumper in the car now. Have you guys heard any stories about those things exploding on their own? I have a...

How did you know you needed one? I have 23 with original 12V battery. What was your symptoms?

On the first photo, the front of the truck has larger fire. That is the the area with no HVB. I wonder if that is where fire started (more time to burn).

I am curious about SOC too. Mine is 23 (and gray).

Don't forget to roll down your windows and pump up the volume while playing some relevant music at the event https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/lightning-is-alive-my-ode-songs.33491/

The next Ford EV you buy may be Chinese:

Speaking of learning from CT, make sure your regen works:

That should not be an issue because I can’t see why anyone would take it to 3rd party for module swap under warranty. However we have had owners that have had modules going bad twice during warranty. I am not sure if it was the same module. Are you saying when they put in a new module, they...

I am not sure if this is in your wheelhouse but I ask anyway since you know about batteries more than I do; by the time my battery is out of warranty, we probably have solid state, or other techs more widely available. Would you say it is doable to swap the pack with those? Too difficult with...

Did he say he didn’t want to put a new module in a used pack because there will be out of balance? If I heard it right, then how is Ford dealing with warranty issues When replacing these modules?

I have a 23 Pro and I am now getting this message in the truck and in the app. My reserve is 10 miles manual setting and I have been getting this message at around 40% - 50% SOC. Does it have anything to do with complementary services ending for my truck (warranty period is over)? I also did...

Thanks for the tips. Last time I was there, it was more than 3 decades ago. Went with a local friend from Delta Junction. I remember, everyone had already married everyone else in town so all combinations were exhausted. To top it all off, we were getting all the gossip from an interesting...

I remember once in Toronto, my eyeballs froze walking from my car to the door and i think it was only in low teens. I wouldn’t have a clue how to handle -50F temp. Aug is the time I would visit Alaska. A few hours of night time and lots of heat, works very nicely for me. Those large...

Mighty cool but I already have more power than I need In my 23 Pro. Now if there was a race for reliability, I would tune in very closely.
