US population of affected vehicles is: 72. Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS.
REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM
In all of the affected vehicles, the high voltage battery coolant tube assemblies were manufactured
with the incorrect material. The affected coolant tube assemblies may allow the following failure
modes to occur:
• Water ingress through a broken spin weld of the coolant tube assembly spigot. Water intruding
into the high voltage battery may cause a wrench light to illuminate causing DTC P0AA6 Hybrid Battery Voltage System Isolation Fault to set, potentially progressing to a battery power
off warning on the next key cycle.
• Coolant may leak due to shrinkage of the coolant tube assembly spigot. DTC P2D06 - Motor
Electronics Coolant Pump 'B' Overspeed/Air in System and/or DTC P2B29 - Hybrid/EV Battery
Pack Coolant Pump 'A' Overspeed /Air in System may set with no customer impact. DTC
P0A3C – Drive Motor 'A' Inverter Over Temperature: Unexpected Operation may set,
potentially leading to over temperature warnings and limited acceleration to occur.
SERVICE ACTION
Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this program, dealers are to
replace both high voltage battery coolant tube assemblies. This service must be performed on all
affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE
Ford Motor Company’s Customer Relationship Center (CRC) will be proactively reaching out to
affected vehicle owners offering aid in setting up a service appointment. Owner letters will be mailed
on an as needed basis which will be dependent on unsuccessful CRC outreach. Dealers should repair
any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a
letter.

REPLACED FSA PARTS INSPECTION AND SIGN OFF
Effective March 1st, 2021, all parts replaced as part of an FSA repair with a repair order open date of
March 1st, 2021, or later must be inspected and signed off on the repair order by a member of your
dealer’s fixed operations management team or an employee the task has been delegated to. If the
task is to be delegated to a non-management employee, the employee needs to be someone other
than the technician who completed the repair and needs to understand the importance of completing
this task consistently and accurately.
•

All parts replaced as part of an FSA repair should be returned to the parts department
following the Warranty Parts Retention and Return Policies.

•

Inspect the replaced parts to verify the FSA repair was completed.

•

If the FSA repair is found to be complete, the designated employee signs the repair order line
or parts return stamp area (electronic or hand signed) for the FSA repair indicating the parts
were inspected and validated to have been replaced.

•

After the parts have been inspected, they should be handled based on the guidance in the
parts status report in the Online Warranty System (Hold, Return, CORE, Scrap, etc.).

This process is subject to review during warranty audits for FSA repairs with a repair order
open date of March 1st, 2021, or later. Any eligible FSA claims requiring parts replacement
found not to have been inspected and signed off during a warranty audit will be subject to
chargeback and consideration for enrollment into the Dealer Incomplete Recall Repair
Process.
Note: Other approvals (electronic or handwritten) for add-on repair lines, dealer-owned vehicle
repairs, and repeat repairs do not qualify as FSA parts inspection approvals. The post-repair FSA
parts inspection process (electronic or handwritten) is independent of other warranty approval
requirements. The approval by the designated employee implies that the FSA parts were found to be
replaced and must be able to be clearly identified on the Repair Order. If multiple FSAs require
approval on a single Repair Order, each applicable occurrence will require individual post-repair
approval by the designated employee.

Customer Satisfaction Program 23B09

April 2023

Mr. John Sample
123 Main Street
Anywhere, USA 12345
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): 12345678901234567
Ford Motor Company’s Customer Relationship Center attempted to contact you prior to this letter.
As part of our Customer Satisfaction Program 23B09 we have identified that your vehicle is equipped
with parts that are not performing as intended, which could result in a degradation of the performance
of your vehicle. Ford is offering to replace these parts free of charge on your vehicle with the VIN
shown above.
Why are you receiving
this notice?

Ford Motor Company has identified that on your vehicle, the high voltage
battery coolant tube assemblies were manufactured with the incorrect
material. The affected coolant tube assemblies may allow water to intrude
into the high voltage battery and/or may allow coolant to leak from the high
voltage battery.

What is the effect?

If water intrudes into the high voltage battery a wrench light may illuminate,
potentially progressing to a battery power off warning on the next key cycle.
If an excessive amount of coolant has leaked from high voltage battery, over
temperature warnings may occur potentially leading to limited acceleration.

What will Ford and
your dealer do?

For the purposes of this program, Ford Motor Company has authorized your
dealer to replace the high voltage battery coolant tube assemblies free of
charge (parts and labor) under the terms of this program.
This Customer Satisfaction Program will be in effect until April 5, 2024
regardless of mileage. Coverage is automatically transferred to subsequent
owners.

How long will it take?

The time needed for this repair is less than one-full day. However, due to
service scheduling requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a
longer period of time.

What should you do?

Please call your dealer without delay to schedule a service appointment for
Customer Satisfaction Program 23B09. Provide the dealer with your VIN,
which is printed near your name at the beginning of this letter.

 Copyright 2023 Ford Motor Company

What should you do?
(Continued)

Vehicle owners affected by this customer satisfaction program have the
option of requesting complimentary Pickup & Delivery service. Please
request Pickup & Delivery through your dealer if you would like to take
advantage of this option.
If you do not already have a servicing dealer, you can access
ford.com/support for dealer addresses, maps, and driving instructions.
Ford Motor Company wants you to have this service action completed on
your vehicle. The vehicle owner is responsible for making arrangements to
have the work completed. Ford Motor Company can deny coverage for any
vehicle damage that may result from the failure to have this service action
performed on a timely basis. Therefore, please have this service action
performed as soon as possible.
NOTE: You can receive information about Recalls and Customer
Satisfaction Programs through our FordPass App. The app can be
downloaded through the App Store or Google Play. In addition there are
other features such as reserving parking in certain locations and controlling
certain functions on your vehicle (lock or unlock doors, remote start) if it is
equipped to allow control.

Do you need a rental
vehicle?

Your dealer is authorized to provide a rental vehicle for your personal
transportation at no charge (except for fuel, insurance, and tax) while your
vehicle is at the dealership for repairs. Please see your dealer for guidelines
and limitations.

What if you no longer
own this vehicle?

If you no longer own this vehicle, and have an address for the current owner,
please forward this letter to the new owner.
You received this notice because our records, which are based primarily on
state registration and title data, indicate that you are the current owner.

Can we assist you
further?

If you have difficulties getting your vehicle repaired promptly and without
charge, please contact your dealership's Service Manager for assistance.
