The entire electrical system failed in my truck while DRIVING IN A SNOWSTORM. New engine light saying -??the PCM detected the power relay de-energized earlier than expected-??. The most alarming thing is that this truck runs like there is nothing wrong with it. No warnings or alerts. Then all of a sudden it dies. Total loss of power in the vehicle. I-??ve tried to have the dealership replace these issues but they have either canceled on me or have told me that the -??part isn-??t in-??. Meanwhile, my truck is not safe to drive. I-??ve read numerous reports of this same thing happening to other owners of this truck, with most of the consensus saying that the OEM factory wiring harness for the battery is bad.

The 12-volt accessory battery fails without warning resulting in a no-start situation. The failure to start has left my family stranded in dangerous weather and traffic conditions. The vehicle has been serviced repeatedly by a local Ford dealership who has confirmed that 12-volt battery issues. The 12-volt battery has been replaced twice, but this did not solve the battery drain issue. Warnings for powertrain malfunction and low state of battery charge showed up in the FordPass App starting in October 2023 and have continued for the past year without resolution.

The last time I vehicle was sitting at the Ford dealership for more than two weeks. I ended up with a low battery warning in their Ford app after taking it back in with less than 36,000 miles they replaced the battery. It has been a year since then and the same issue has happened now that has been at Ford for over three weeks to fix the CV axle. Battery failure can leave. You stranded in remote locations with no way to start your vehicle which should be a safety concern. The other safety concern could be the reason that the electrical drains the battery could cause problems with the high-voltage battery causing fire. While researching the issue, I have discovered that this is a common problem with the 22 through 24 Mavericks and obviously the issue is not the battery the issue is the electrical system draining the battery.
