Just wondering if anyone has had a similar situation.
so booked my mustang Mach e in for the high voltage junction box recall before Christmas had it all done and within 470 miles the car went back into low power mode with Ford pass app saying
1 High-Voltage Battery Warning
What Is Happening?
Your stop safely now warning is on due to a fault with the high voltage system. Performance and speed will be greatly reduced. It is not recommended to drive your vehicle.
Took it back to Ford and they said it needed Bec software update which they charged £169+vat for and that would cure the issue. I had the car put on main dealer diagnostics prior to taking to Ford and the codes was exactly the same as before the recall HVJB, but they assured me that would cure it. Picked car up no warning lights full power back again 3 days later less than 200 miles same problem low power same codes (POADA-00 Hybrid Battery Positive Contactor Control Circuit Range / Performance) took it back in today and now they are saying it’s the battery buzz bar and the battery needs to come apart again. I’ve spoken to a number of dealers and they are all saying they have never heard of that and it’s more than likely the recall was not successful. They want to charge me for the work even though they can’t tell me why they think it’s the buzz bar.
so anyone who can shed some light on this or help me out I would be very grateful.
thanks
