I’ve not received any updates ever for my MY21 Mach-e, although I had my dealer apply all o/s updates in May. Today I got the message for the first time and I was plugged in. I’m pretty sure it’s a FordPass bug and DTE means Distance To Empty. Interestingly my car is set to charge to 80% but this morning it was charged to 100% and showing 340 miles of range!?!
I have received the "SRS Failed Due Low DTE" error message today at 6:56 AM, the vehicle was plugged in at the time of the error message, and yesterday at 4:25pm which according to my Ring was right when I plugged in the car... I am a 2021 First Edition with 26K miles.
Got the 'SRS FAILED DUE LOW DTE' at 7:10a today, car plugged in, and should have already started the 7:15a departure routine. (Nice grammar Ford...)
Then a 'HIGH-VOLTAGE BATTERY WARNING' at 7:48a while my wife was driving to work.
And a 'POWERTRAIN MALFUNCTION / REDUCED POWER', also at 7:48a.
The wife is NOT happy. And when she's not happy, nobody is happy!
Ours is a '21 and just recently went out of warranty by mileage.
She just texted me that the error is still on the dash after leaving work.
This car is bipolar - mechanically very well built, but the software is complete and utter junk!
I have been writing code for a living for 43 years, and this by FAR the worst software I have ever had to deal with! It is bad in the car, on the app, and on the website, a perfect trifecta of FAILURE.
Hopefully this is just another in a long line of bogus error messages.
I will certainly NOT be buying another Ford anytime soon.
LMAO I got the same message today! Someone at @Ford Motor Company probably troubleshooting notifications in prod and maybe sent it to everyone who had a Departure Time set.
Received 2 Low DTE notifications: 1) 7/19 afternoon when it tried to do a SRS unplugged at ~80% SOC. 2) The next SRS on 7/20 morning, plugged in at 90% SOC.
The next two SRS events (7/20 afternoon unplugged and 7/21 morning plugged in) have gone successfully with no DTE notification.
2021 Premium AWD Extended
Last Vehicle OTA Update: 7/15, 23-PU0314-DCM-LAT
Last FordPass Android Update: 7/15, v4.28.0
I did not receive these Low DTE notifications after the updates on 7/15 until 7/19 when I turned on the FordPass setting to allow SRS unplugged.
