bigbirdwpg Posted October 6 Report Share Posted October 6 I own a 2021 Ford Edge SEL. Purchased new in October (27th) 2021. It's been a great car, except for battery problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabangsta Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Welcome! Hopefully by battery issue you mean the 3+ year old OEM battery is finally needing replaced? I am jealous, my 2019 has been a heap of expensive issues that I now have nearly as much into as if I bought a new one in 2022 instead of a used one. Live and learn I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wubster100 Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 The battery in my 2021 is getting bad. It’s just a waiting game until one day the car doesn’t start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played that game with my 2017 Escape. I had a jump box with me, and since it was only me driving it at the time (it was the wife's vehicle, but she was on 4 months bed rest) I rolled the dice. According to Ford it was down to 220 CCA (lifetime maintenance contract, so full work up every oil change at dealer) , auto start/stop was disabled, and I couldn't listen to the radio with the engine off, and SyncConnect/FordPass would go dormant within an hour of turning it off (no remote start, lock/unlock from phone app). I went that entire 4 months and never needed to jump it. Once we were going on a long trip and she was driving it again I replaced the battery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wubster100 Posted October 10 Report Share Posted October 10 The same things are happening to me. If I go for a longer drive (20 minutes) I am able to listen to the radio. My FordPass will stay connected for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
