Issue
Issue:
On certain plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models, there may be a problem inside the high-voltage battery. As a result, one or more of the cells in the battery could short circuit and overheat. If this happens, the battery could turn off and cause a loss of power to the wheels.
Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. A high-voltage battery that overheats could create a fire risk.
Corrective Actions:
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to test the battery energy control module (BECM). If the test results show a problem with high-voltage battery pack, it will be replaced.
