Battery problems?

[Vodkastains]

I haven't seen anything here on this, but every time I stop my 6 month old 2021 F-150, I get a "System Off to Save Battery" message and a progress bar that never seems to go away. Is there something wrong with my battery or charging system? I've looked around the internet and there seems to be all kinds of differing opinions on what it is and what to do, and they are all for older generation F-150's.

Is your F-150 a PowerBoost? Where do you see the progress bar?

No, it's the 5.0 with a 2kw generator

Hmmm ?, maybe referring something with the ProPower On Board feature. I thought it may have been the actual engine battery, or PowerBoost battery.

My truck went into “Deep Sleep Mode” and was dead as a door nail about two weeks after I brought it home, and needed to be jump started. Thankfully it was a one time phantom issue for now.

I think most trucks have been updated to prevent it, but is your zone lighting feature on while the truck is off? Some people have had issues with that as well.

No it's not on when it's off. I checked last evening

Same Problem Here… I have the 3.5 ecoboost with just the standard 400w. Mine went to the shop today for this exact same thing.

The service tech said they have another 2021 F150 in with the same issue.. they are waiting to hear back from ford.
My truck had to be jumped the day I bought it so I was hoping it was just a bad battery but seems like it might be a bigger issue..

got the truck back from the shop. They said they ran repair procedure 21-2097 and reprogrammed the GWM.

Did this solve the issues ? I have the same problems, took my truck to my dealer who said they reflashed the system. My problems are still there .

I had this issue a couple days after I brought the truck home. Jump started it a few times but what fixed it was putting the battery on a trickle charger for a few hours.
