Known issues

High
Ford issued internal recall 22S31 (49,000 vehicles) for a high-voltage main contactor that could overheat and weld open after repeated DC fast-charging, leaving the vehicle stranded. Software fix limited DC fast-charge current; some vehicles required physical contactor replacement. Confirm completion against the VIN at any Ford dealer.
TSB
Low
LG NCM cells from the Wroclaw plant supplied early Bolt EV packs that were later recalled for fire risk. Ford packs use a different cell formulation and have not seen Bolt-style fires, but the supplier overlap is worth noting.
News
Low
Battery preconditioning (Trip Planner) is required for fast-charge speeds. Owners who skip it report DC charging capped at 50–60 kW even on 150 kW chargers.
