It sounds like it is quite prevalent in 2021 models. I had been hoping my car wouldn’t encounter this, but I think because my mileage is low, since I have a home office, it took longer to happen.
The HVBJB is a known potential problem for the Mach. The recall was just a software patch that gave a warning of impending failure so If you are having this issue you should get it into the dealer. I can not say how it will be for you but it appears in many cases now to be a fairly straight forward and short turn around warranty repair. Once replaced very small chance of another failure.
Oh no! Sorry to hear this. This is exactly why I am reluctant to drive my MME, so it is currently sitting in the garage while my husband and I share one vehicle (not convenient but what can I do?). I plan on running some short errands to see alerts service again (so there will be something to check for service appt), but I don’t want to be stranded in the meantime or do damage. I wish my service appointment was sooner. Because software cleared all my errors, it appears nothing is wrong, when indeed there is, otherwise I wouldn’t have received those errors, or lost a certain percentage of power when errors were present. I feel like I’m driving a ticking time bomb. I plan on updating my status once serviced. Hoping I get some answers and results. My car was delivered September of 2021, so I have gone this long with no issues, but as you said, with the large price tag…it is discouraging. On the flip side, I try and have patience because this is a new build, and there is bound to be hiccups. Just hoping my hiccups are minor. Good luck and I hope you get good results.
I am having this exact same issue - but oddly after 26k of driving. It happened after the most recent service and is now happening almost daily. Really bad as no local town truck operator will tow the Mach-E without dollies. The dealership is backed up for 2 weeks so I think I'll get a 12V external charger to carry around whenever this problem happens. Sucks!
The dealer I took mine to for HVBJB service told me that their guy is backed up 2-3 weeks on appointments. They also told me that they felt that he was going to have some free time from those appointments and if I would leave my car they would likely get it done before I had a shot at an appointment. This ended up being true. ??

Talk to your service advisor and get a feel for how he/she feels the EV tech’s week looks. Maybe they can put your car in the “fill-in” queue (as my service advisor called it). ?
