"System off to save battery" message?!?!

[Benanza]

Came out to my car this morning and had this sitting waiting for me. I look around all my accessories are off and nothing plugged in, anyone have this happen? Should I be worried?

did you not turn the car off properly or leave the lights on ? I had this message when i went to the drive in movie theater and was trying to keep the radio on without the engine running. Everything would turn off after 30 minutes and I would get this message. Its setting you can control to save the battery in case you leave some accessories on for too long.

The car was shut down 2 days prior parked in the garage went out last night to grab something and it wasn't on the display, it was there when I opened the door today thou.

Mine does this if I haven't driven it for a few days. So many electronics running even when the Sport is off. I believe this is to save the battery if you aren't using the vehicle.

Check on your Ford pass app for this message under account>message center. Here's what happened to me last week:

Started up bs with fob cause someone wanted to see it work, talked for a fews mins about it, shut it off by holding down the 2x button or lock, I forget. When I came back a few hours later I had this message on my Fordpass app. It started up without issue using the fob despite the message.

Yup, thanks totally got the notification. First time I think I didn't drive for more than one day in a row. Think it needed a rest anyway, must be a deep sleep feature, what will Ford think of next

The only thing that concerns me about the message is it was only a couple hours since the last time I started it so kinda weird that it engaged all because I turned it off from the fob. *Shrugs*

Automatic transmissions only? Hint of something to come?

I got the message on my iPhone from Ford that they shut down my electronics because I hadn't driven my bronco for a couple of weeks due to a knee replacement sugery.
They said everything would be turned back on when I start the motor.

I think it was caused on mine for a separate issue. I have been noticing the headlights getting stuck on. I have changed courtesy time to 10 seconds so I can catch it before I walk away at least. Gonna have to go in if next update doesn't correct issue. I have seen a post about the headlight issue on here so I just have to pay attention and keep track of when it happens.

It's deep sleep mode.
