“Vehicle would repeat law battery message. Took to dealer battery tests good. Vehicle would sometimes die overnight with a no start condition in mourning. 6 dealer visits and one new battery, no problem found from dealer. This vehicle could strand you at any time. I have a open case from Ford but problem continues.”
