| 4300 mi | Problem reoccurred, drove car straight to dealer with warning lights on, did not turn it off. They found 3 pages of codes and a lack of BCM communication. Involved Ford engineering. Found and replaced a damaged pin in a harness connector. |
| 6300 mi | Got charging system error, noted bad battery by the "eye" on the battery being black. |
