  1. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    Dang it my experience was very much not that haha. I’m a bit of a pushover cause I am not good at interacting with people so I just simply stated “I replaced my original battery with an agm last week and just discovered there was a recall, ford said if I’m looking for reimbursement to come to...

    Ohh Okok I get it now. Thank you 🙏 that makes sense!!
  3. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    ...you did not get the recall which is because your VIN disqualified your vehicle from the recall Because you stated your vehicle came with an EFB (Battery), that battery was not subject to the recall. According to what I read, it’s a specific EFB made in China which apparently your vehicle did...
  4. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I don’t understand why you didn’t qualify. Mines a 2022 that is 6 months beyond warrenty. There were no questions asked. Maybe call Ford again.
  5. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I’m probably “beating a dead horse”, but here it is: EFB failed post 3/36 warranty on my ’21 BS, and was replaced by dealer with AGM. I paid for the new battery, then the recall was announced. Dealer said they would attempt to get me reimbursed after batteries were available and the recall was...
  6. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    So if I’m understanding correctly, forgive me if not, by paying for the new agm to be installed, replacing the regular battery, my vin now doesn’t pull up under this recall. but had I inquired pre install, it could have qualified?
  7. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    Owners stated the recall procedure said .. if vehicle has an EFB then replace with AGM but I didn’t try to find the actual procedure documentation since my 2022 EFB failed within the 3 yr 36 mo warranty so was replaced with an AGM Battery Perhaps was too late for you because you already had the...
  8. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I had the efb or regular lead battery idk the difference originally, and had them replace with an agm last week than saw on here I could potentially have qualified for the recall lol
  9. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    Well you already have an AGM Battery right? Because other owners with the non chinese EFB got the new AGM Battery per how the recall was stated
  10. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    That seems odd. Once the repair became available, they Ford and several dealers were constantly bugging me via email and telephone to get the battery replaced. I finally caved in and did it. It was painless but I always worry when somebody else has their head under my hood!
  11. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    FWIW the 2023 I had with the EFB Battery Had System Off To Save Battery come up many times when I had it. But I never got a Recall for the Battery.
  12. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    This is what’s confusing me, is I didn’t really even know this recall existed. It never showed up on my vin search for recall info or my app. And the service advisor didn’t say anything. So without this forum (assuming they do reimburse me when I stop in this weekend) I would be out $300...
  13. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    There were supply chain issues which forced Ford into supplying EFB batteries instead of AGM which is one of the reasons for the recall. The tech that came out to replace mine said no testing was required. If it was an EFB, automatically replace it with an AGM version.
  14. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    The 2023 BS BB that I no longer have came from the factory with the EFB Battery not the AGM.
  15. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I had my original EFB battery die suddenly in a Target parking lot. If you have not done this recall do it ASAP! When they die they, they die without any warning and you be dead in the water. Luckily I have roadside assistance so I did not pay for tow. But it was a huge inconvenience.
  16. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I forgot to add I had my EFB battery replaced via the recall under mobile service from dealer. The old was functioning perfect but my BS had over 90k miles. The existing battery was likely at its end of life anyways so getting a new battery for free was the bees knees. I know about removing...
  17. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I suppose I should mention, my EFB battery worked fine for 3.5 years but I do use a tender when it sits for a long time. Which is often during the summer.
  18. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    I just had mine replaced last week. If it is an EFB, they don’t do anything but replace it and then do the BCM reset. All done in my driveway in about 20 minutes. The dealer gets extra money from Ford if they use the mobile service.
  19. Cost for battery upgrade to AGM

    From another post on this site: Ford Battery Recall - #25S02 https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/ford-battery-recall-25s02.13204/ Is was consider a safety issue. My original EFB was replaced no charge with a new Motorcraft AGM. The BS was over 4 years old at the time.
