Owner report 11667221 · 2025-06-16 (June 16, 2025)
Since [XXX], I had my new car for five months and began receiving pre-collision assist not available and park aid malfunction. I have been receiving these since March.

Owner report 11702761 · 2025-12-03 (December 3, 2025)
I have written before about this VIN not being included in campaign 24V954000 merely because it was manufactured in June 2024 and have gotten no substantive reply. Now that the software fix is ruled inadequate there is a 2nd recall, still not including my vehicle. I have had 2 events of not being able to charge the car yet the Ford dealership claims there is no faults found. Now with the car being less than a year old the range of a full charge has decreased from 30+ miles when new to now being in the low 20's. No doubt in mind due to the a…
