Reduced power hvb warning

[MoonRiver]

I had a bunch of warnings this morning

It’s a 2022 Select built before 5/24/22. Could these warnings caused by the notorious HVJB recall? I’m taking it to my dealership this afternoon, but would like to get some idea beforehand.

Shut it off, let it sit for 30 minutes, then come back to it. If it still has the same warnings, I would drive it straight to the dealer. If it won’t drive, then call for a tow.

Yes, could be HVBJB.

Will see on my may to the dealership soon. It’s been parked longer than an hour.

Drove well all the way to the dealership. They pulled a list of errors, none said HVB. Too many to remember. Most of them had TSB for it. Not sure whether they were covered by the powertrain/hvb warranty. Expect a longtime without it. Hope it wouldn’t cost me an arm and a leg.

All under warranty. Hope they provide you a loaner for your trouble.

Yes, it’s indeed the notorious HVBJB, unfortunately. Even though it was built on 5/22/22—which was before the recall cutoff date (I believe it was 5/24/22)—it didn’t survive.

The good news is that it failed before the warranty expired, and they said the replacement unit will be delivered within a week. It looks like Ford has kept up with the demand for the new units.

Thanks to those who chipped in.
Will update how it goes.

Does a faulty HVBJB affect charging? After the “Reduced Power” warning appeared, my Ford mobile charger wouldn’t charge and showed a solid red ring. It did, however, charge fine with Electrify America.
