FORD ESCAPE PHEV 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Date: 3/7/2026  I am submitting this complaint regarding a potentially serious safety issue with my 2025 Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid manufactured by Ford Motor Company.  My vehicle began displaying multiple warning messages including âHigh Voltage Battery Warning,â âPowertrain Malfunction,â and âService Engine Soon.â These warnings appeared while the vehicle was charging using a Level 2 charger, which raises significant concerns about the safety and reliability of the vehicleâs high-voltage electrical system.  After these warnings appeared, I brought the vehicle to an authorized Ford dealership for diagnosis and repair. The vehicle has now been in the repair shop for approximately 30 days, reportedly waiting on parts related to the high-voltage battery or powertrain system.  This situation raises several concerns:  The possibility of a defect in the high-voltage battery system.  The potential for sudden loss of power or drivetrain failure.  The risk associated with charging a vehicle that displays high-voltage battery warnings.  Extended vehicle downtime due to the lack of available replacement parts.  Given the critical safety implications of high-voltage battery systems in plug-in hybrid vehicles, I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate whether this issue represents a broader defect affecting other vehicles of the same model.
