2020 Explorer ST

Personal experience and opinion. When the app starts saying it's disabling features to save the battery, make financial plans, and grab a new AGM when you can. Go to a reputable dealer in town that changes it for free too!

I see it may not have fixed the other issues, but I have tested the battery after the app started that, and they were borderline.

I had over a hundred of those warnings in 3 months before the dealer decided it was the battery., But it wouldn't start being the final straw.

I replaced the battery and it didn’t fix any of the communication errors. I actually got to the root cause. The ground on my AWD module is failing intermittently. I verified it with a multimeter and looking at the oscilloscope on forscan. I have a whole thread about it in case anyone else sees these posts.

Sounds like a headache, no big issues on my 2020.
Things that have replaced since purchasing is 09/2021 used 24k:
Front drivers axle boot
FADA oil leak fix
Oil pan replaced( it was the FADA not oil pan)
Front diff leak
Purge valve replaced
Passenger side cat replaced
Couple of updated modules
Rear shocks replaced

Knock on wood, nothing else major

I’m dealing with the fada leak now . I told them that’s what it looked like and they just replaced the oil pan and of course it’s still leaking from the fada. I guess they love to waste their time doing things twice
