See links at bottom of this thread. Yes I got it, no fix at this time.

2024 Lariat Tremor I got it, no fix at this time, I'm not worried since I don't tow anymore

I just picked up my Maverick from the dealer and was told it should be available on or around May 29

I had the dealership do the software update for this recall took less than 30 minute no issues after the update

Got this same update OTA on our '23 Superduty (finally) last month. Our new '26 Maverick was built mid March must have been updated at the factory prior to shipment.... no updates are pending on Ford app or Infotainment screen - yet.

I also got one for my 23 XLT Tremor. I'm hoping to get it done at the same time as the backup camera recall. And I'm hoping they'll replace my battery, as well.

Got it a month ago for my 22. I do tow, but have never had this error and trailer lights have always worked. Will most likely get it done when a fix is available.

Had mine updated / done on Friday with an oil change. Added to my list.

Had the recall done on my 2026 XLT FX4 a couple of weeks ago (Jacksonville NC). Software update, took them about 20 minutes.

Been there, done that.

I received the recall notice. Fix WAS completed at dealership in April. Don't understand "no fix yet"? I would expect all dealerships to be able to do it at same time? Perhaps not. Bottom line, fix is available. My dealer did that one and the park brake recall same day, one trip.

The fix is available for 25-26 models. No fix is available for the 22-24 models.

Ah, OK. Thanks for the clarification. My bad assumption .

Good day

I just had my Mav in the shop yesterday for the Trailer Module update to be carried out, along with a couple other things (like the rear passenger door window trims pulling apart at the joint, upper rear corners).

Funny thing is, I have a change to my trucks 12 volt charging level when it is running. It was noticed immediately when I started it up to leave my dealer's lot.

I have an inexpensive volt meter in the dash 12 volt power port which I know indicates 0.1 volts high.

Since March my 12 volt charge levels when driving were varying between 15.1-15.2 volts (corrected from displayed value). (Over 15 volts is not good for an AGM battery).

(I do regularly recharge the battery with an appropriate AGM 1-7 amp Canadian Tire charger).

As soon as we started up the truck, I noted that it was charging/system voltage was at 14.59 actual! By the time we got home 20 kms later it was indicating 14.19 volts (actual).

(I metered the battety-boost points under the hood after the truck had shut everything down 2 hrs later and it read 12.8 volts....12.8-13.0 volts is considered fully charged).

I started it twice since and same ballpark voltage readings.

I was working around and in and out of the truck yesterday (this would slowly draw down the 12 volt battery, waking the truck up repeatedly).

I just got a call from my wife who is out and about (and knows about my 12 volt system...ahem...interest) to let me know that the truck was charging the battery at 15.1 indicated volts (15.0 volts actual).

She knows that over 15 volts is bad, and now knows the indicator reads 0.1 volts high, and called to let me know. She is a keeper, alright!

This is great, as that is the maximum normal charge voltage for an AGM battery.

I just don't know why the values changed as this module has never come up as being associated with the charging levels (or lack thereof) for our trucks.

The only work that was done (having to do with electrical or modules) was the Trailer Module Reprogramming, recall # 26C10B.

Has anyone else noticed a similar change/improvement in their Hybrid 12 volt charge profile after the Trailer Module reprogramming?

I ask as there are other current threads that discuss the charging values, causes etc, and their short comings for our trucks (just turn on your headlights day and night when driving and that helps...long story short!)

I realize many don't look at things like this, but it doesn't hurt (much ;-) to ask, right?

Have a good day,

Andy
