ElectricFan69 Report post Posted July 21, 2023 Well, I got a recall notice above - with no resolution described, but promised for a future date. The described fault / risk is that the Battery Energy Control module can fail due to overvoltage / current overload. The immediate work-around is to stop the plug-in, with a promise of some future fix. That makes the Energi compromise (lack of luggage space) really had to swallow. My typical driving pattern is within the daily plug-in range, so it's several months between gasoline purchases. Now, the charger I have been using can throttle the current - the current observed max has been 14 amps (from the 240 volt circuit), topping up the battery in a couple of hours. IDK if the risk is just with the Ford-branded charger, or what the exact scenario is. That new Prius Prime is looking more appealing with each of Ford's mess-ups...

ElectricFan69 Report post Posted September 28, 2023 Well, the saga continues. Got a letter from Ford today for a $250 offer for 'not charging your vehicle'. OK, then. So I guess that indicates that the 'fix' is nowhere near? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
