Mine was at the dealer for the HVJB for 89 days. HVB didn’t loose any % but the 12V went down - 10 weeks of sitting and the LVB was almost too low to “start” the car. Lesson learned - remotely start the car regularly (monthly) to charge up the LVB.
You can't necessarily remote start the car if it goes into deep sleep mode. That's why Ford recommends disconnecting the 12V battery for extended storage.

That is great advice. But I think here is the problem, after just one week my new MME went into deep sleep and I can’t do anything remotely. Any other suggestion's?
