I also have a smaller model of that unit and I’ve been very happy with it. It’s great on road trips and not having to worry about ice Water spillage everywhere.
Hi -
I have a 2023 Lariat ER with the 9.6Kw ProPower and I just had it on Thursday night for a power outage about 9:45 PM and it stayed on powering our house the entire day until power came back on. (I have a generator port for the house that works with the rear twist lock.)
I had no issues...
I have also seen that warning one time and it was after an OTA and I have never seen it since. I have almost 70,000 on my 2023 Lariat ER and the only real issue I have experienced was with the Telemetics Communications Unit that would cause FordPass connectivity issues - but Ford replaced that...
Watched the video Chris - great as always!
I hope Ford pushes an improved route planner soon (allows for target SoC at each location and incorporates Tesla natively at a minimum) but out also would be nice if ABRP had a way to precondition when using their app.
One feature I do like in ABRP is...
A ton of great suggestions here.
If none of those work for you I wanted to share that my 2023 Lariat ER had intermittent issues for about the first 9 months - Ford initially thought it was software but they ended up replacing the TCU Telematics Communications Unit and I have not had issues...
I have just over 67,000 miles on my 2023 Lightning Lariat ER and have never heard any issues ( and I have very sensitive hearing ). Hope they can isolate the issue for you.
I would tend to agree - I have a 2023 Lariat ER with almost 67,000 miles on it now and I have only ever had issues with the TCU (telematics communications unit) - never had mechanical issues.
I agree with you on the software portion - but I think the current side camera orientation in the mirrors that is aiming down would not provide the same wide angle and clarity the side mounted Tesla cams in the “B” pillars currently do. I think they would need to implement that hardware change...
Glad to hear it! Have you connected with the Northeast Lightning Club? If not you should consider it:

We are getting ready to start sign ups for the Carlisle Ford Nationals in June - would love to see you there!
Just received notification of newly Opened NEVI locations in Pennsylvania:

I have a 2023 Lariat ER and rarely tow but I really got the max tow for that second cooling loop in hopes of it helping the health of the battery in the long term.
I also have this issue - the retro fit was done in late 2023 in my 2023 Lariat ER, but I have no option in FordPass for the wheel in climate.
@Ford Motor Company- should this have been completed as part of the retrofit?
I have to concur with the other comments, I have travelled on many LONG road trips since I took delivery of our Lariat ER in 1/6/2023 and I currently have 63,970 miles…major road trips included:
SE Pa to West Palm Beach Florida (first week we had it only EA and EvGO chargers) (2,200 miles RT)...
I took delivery of my 2023 Lightning Lariat ER on 1/6/2023 and currently have 63,428 miles on it - all virtually trouble free.
only Ford issue was the connectivity to FordPass was sketchy 2023 into 2024 but they replaced the TCU (telematics communication unit) and it has been good ever since...
