Total lockout poll -- have you experienced it?

[doogie63]

This total lockout is scary. If you did have total lockout how or did they fix it? Where were you when it happen? If in garage how did they tow you out?

This has been discussed in the other threads, but do NOT have it towed if you can avoid it. the dealer will have the some solution and it willl likely take longer. Instead, contact ford roadside and request a locksmith/unlock help. They can open the front door, and from there you can pop the frunk and unplug the negative 12v connection for 10 minutes.

It’s only been seen on 23s and 24s.

Rumor is the fix is on FDRS currently.

Mine was due to 12V failure and dealer came to house to replace.

I can't believe that there are so few readers sharing their experience (or not) with the 2023-2024 mystery lock-out issue. There was a flurry of activity and consternation about this a week or so ago, but no one seems to have had the problem recently. Could it be that the issue was as mysteriously fixed as it appeared? Or that it was so limited that only a handful of owners experienced it (only 3)? Or that it is still happening and those it happens to are not reporting it because they do not think it is a widespread issue? Regardless of the reasons, I'd sure like to see more data about its prevalence.
