Purchased CPO F150 (3/2019 @ ~32k miles). 1st complimentary oil change, dealer inspected the truck and indicated the OEM battery was weak. The battery should have been generating 800cca, but was only producing 249cca. This is attributed to the stop/start feature. Changed battery and disable the stop/start feature everytime we start the truck.

2790 mi No modules were replaced. Intelligent access hasn't worked again for 2 weeks, but the day i took it in to be fixed, it worked and nothing was done. Might be related to very cold weather!? Intelligent access not working on both front doors. Dealer cleared codes and said to bring it back if it happens again. Well, it happened again and am taking it in to have the modules in both doors replaced under warranty
