![]() I manually decided to change it to 80% when I switched the actual battery name over to the 70ah AGM.īased on what I have seen in multiple threads, there hasn't been anyone that this didn't fix their issues with deep sleep. Most likely that was due to them having the AGM battery listed but still claiming it was the 45ah battery. Also I noticed SOC(state of charge) was showing 120(%). But no, they didn't update the actual battery options away from factory name. Yes, they did use Forscan to update the BMS battery type to AGM. With how much of a pain it's been, I decided to get a new OBDLink cable since I couldn't find my old one. ![]() : Today is the day that they finally installed the battery for us. Rather than fighting with Ford any further, we foot the bill for the larger battery that is present in late 2020 production models and current 2021 models. I called the dealership up and after being bounced around between service, parts, and service talking with a technician, and many choice words later, they scheduled me to have the 48AGM installed(despite their numerous objections and statements that it could potentially cause damage).Ford does not want to admit blame with this because if they did, they would have to issue a recall and install expensive AGM batteries in thousands of vehicles at their expense. Not a real fix! So after doing a bunch of research I came across numerous threads, and the one that gave me my final decision was from Colorado_Al. Their so called fix to me was bs."just drive it more". Not even a day later deep sleep returned. Oct 2021 took it back in because it started deep sleep again and they charged the battery and returned it to us. My wife works very close to home and with the pandemic we weren't doing long trips of driving. The dealer replaced the battery because it was deemed a bad battery(drained too much over time). March 2021 the battery it came with(10/2019 build date purchased in 01/2020) had been in deep sleep on and off for awhile and finally got tired of it. Deep sleep is such a pain when the only way you can remote start is by using the app(SE Sport keyfob doesn't have the start button). I have been going down this rabbit hole for my wife's 2020 Escape Hybrid SE SPORT for about a year and a half now. First time I've ever joined an Escape forum in order to login and post a comment.
