REASON FOR THIS PROGRAM
Some of the affected vehicles may have high voltage battery modules that can cause Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) P0B24 – Hybrid Battery Voltage Unstable to set causing a stop safely now
message to appear on the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) and the vehicles high voltage battery output
to be limited.
All vehicles will receive an update to the Battery Energy Control Module (BECM) software strategy
that detects if the high voltage battery experiences a voltage deviation and may enter the vehicle into
a reduced performance state. This updated software is available for dealers to update or will become
available as an Over the Air (OTA) update.
New! SERVICE ACTION
Dealers are to update the BECM software. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at
no charge to the vehicle owner.
NOTE: Vehicles that require new high voltage battery modules on or after April 16, 2024 should be
repaired under normal vehicle warranty. For battery module part ordering, please refer to EFC10038
and EFC14296.
To assist vehicle owners to have this repair completed, dealers should:
• Arrange for a mobile repair at the owner’s location, or:
• Arrange to pick up the owner’s vehicle and drive it to the dealership for repairs.
o Re-deliver the owner’s vehicle after repairs have been completed.
• Pick-Up & Delivery and mobile service should be made available for all customers. Refer to
the Rental and Claiming sections for further details.
New! OVER-THE-AIR (OTA) UPDATES (FORD / LINCOLN SOFTWARE UPDATE):
• In addition to you being able to update vehicles now using FDRS, Ford is planning to deploy
an OTA software update mid-year 2024.
• Before scheduling service for an OTA-capable vehicle, please verify through PTS that the FSA
is still open (OASIS) and that the vehicle has not already received the OTA update.
1. Verify FSA is still open by viewing the “Outstanding Field Service Actions” on the
OASIS results page on PTS. (Note: If the OTA update was recently downloaded onto
the vehicle the FSA may still show as open).
2. If the FSA is still open in the Outstanding Field Service Actions section, proceed to the
tab titled “Connected Vehicle”. In the “Over the Air Update 60-Day History”, you can
determine if an OTA update occurred on the affected module by viewing the
“Completion Status”, which should show “Campaign Successful”. The “Release Notes”
will also indicate that the campaign was successfully downloaded onto the vehicle.
(Note: the FSA may still show as open in the Outstanding Field Service Actions section
of PTS even though the OTA update was successfully downloaded onto the vehicle.
This FSA will eventually be removed from the Outstanding Field Service Actions
screen of PTS).
New! OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE
The original population owner letters mailed the week of September 25, 2023. Owners were given the
option of installing the software update themselves once the OTA deploys, or having their dealer
perform the service for them. Updated owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of April 29,
2024 to the remaining open VIN’s affected by this FSA.

Customer Satisfaction Program 23B57
Mr. John Sample
123 Main Street
Anywhere, USA 12345
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): 12345678901234567
At Ford Motor Company, we are committed not only to building high-quality, dependable products but
also to building a community of happy, satisfied customers. To demonstrate that commitment, we are
providing a no-charge Customer Satisfaction Program for your vehicle with the VIN shown above.
Why are you receiving
this notice?
Your vehicle has a Battery Energy Control Module (BECM) software strategy
that detects if your high voltage battery experiences a voltage deviation. If
that detection is triggered, your vehicle may enter into a reduced
performance state.
What will Ford and
your dealer do?
In the interest of customer satisfaction, Ford Motor Company would like to
update your vehicles BECM software to adjust the way the vehicle performs
if a voltage deviation is identified.
This Customer Satisfaction Program will be in effect until September 13,
2024 regardless of mileage. Coverage is automatically transferred to
subsequent owners.
You have two options of installing this software.
Option One: Ford has authorized your dealer to install the BECM software
free of charge (labor) under the terms of this program.
Option Two: Your vehicle is capable of receiving Ford Software Updates.
The BECM software update is anticipated to be available via Ford Software
Updates mid-year 2024.
When Automatic Updates are turned ON (standard from the factory), the
software will be downloaded to your vehicle over a private wi-fi network or
through your vehicle’s modem through the cellular network. Before the
software will install, you will have to schedule a day and time when you will
not need the vehicle for up to 90 minutes while the installation completes.
Note: Refer to ford.com/support for further information on your Ford
Software Updates system.
Should the software fail to load or install properly, Ford has authorized your
dealer to install the BECM software free of charge (labor) under the terms of
this program.
© Copyright 2024 Ford Motor Company
How long will it take?
The time needed for this software installation via Ford Software Updates is
approximately 90 minutes. If you prefer not to wait for the Ford Software
Update to become available via Ford Software Updates (anticipated midyear 2024) or you prefer to go to your dealer for the software update, the
time needed for this repair is less than one-half day. However, due to service
scheduling requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a longer
period.
What should you do?
If you choose to have your dealer install this software, please call your
dealer to schedule a service appointment for Customer Satisfaction Program
23B57. Provide the dealer with your VIN, which is printed near your name at
the beginning of this letter.
If you do not already have a servicing dealer, you can access
ford.com/support for dealer addresses, maps, and driving instructions.
For your convenience, Ford is encouraging you to update your vehicle’s
software using Ford Software Update capabilities when the software
becomes available. By utilizing this option, you should not need to take your
vehicle to your dealer unless you’re unable to successfully perform the
update.
To complete this software update your vehicle will have to be parked with
the ignition off for a short period. Also, you will have to schedule (we suggest
overnight or during work hours) the software installation to ensure that you
will not need your vehicle during the update. You can check the progress of
the installation via the icons on the in-vehicle screen, the FordPass app, or
on the Owner’s website.
Ford Motor Company wants you to have this service action completed on
your vehicle. The vehicle owner is responsible for making arrangements to
have the work completed. Ford Motor Company can deny coverage for any
vehicle damage that may result from the failure to have this service action
performed on a timely basis. Therefore, please have this service action
performed as soon as possible.
NOTE: You can receive information about Recalls and Customer
Satisfaction Programs through our FordPass App. The app can be
downloaded through the App Store or Google Play. In addition, there are
other features such as reserving parking in certain locations and controlling
certain functions on your vehicle (lock or unlock doors, remote start) if it is
equipped to allow control.
Mobile Service
Ford Mobile Service is offered by participating dealers, contact your dealer
for details.
Pick-Up and Delivery
Complimentary vehicle Pick-Up & Delivery service may also be available
upon request through participating dealers. Your dealer will pick up your
vehicle and return it with the repair completed.

What if you no longer
own this vehicle?
If you no longer own this vehicle and have an address for the current owner,
please forward this letter to the new owner.
You received this notice because our records, which are based primarily on
state registration and title data, indicate that you are the current owner.
Can we assist you
further?
If you have difficulties getting your vehicle repaired promptly and without
charge, please contact your dealership’s Service Manager for assistance.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 23B57-S1
Important Information for Module Programming
														
NOTE: When programming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes 		
without errors.
• Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect 		
FDRS/scan tool to a power source.
NOTE: A good internet connection is necessary to identify the vehicle and to load the diagnostic software.		
• Inspect the Vehicle Communication Module II (VCM II)/Vehicle Communication Module III (VCM III) or
the Vehicle Communication and Measurement Module (VCMM) and the cables for any damage. Make
sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
• A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
• Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC
system, etc.) and close doors.
• Turn the accessories back on after programming has completed.
• Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio,etc.).
• Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
• Disable FDRS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.					
• Create all sessions key on engine off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause 		
errors within the programming inhale process.
Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module
a. Disconnect the VCM II/VCM III or the VCMM from the data link connector (DLC) and your computer.
b. After ten seconds, reconnect the VCMII/VCMIII or the VCMM to the DLC and the PC. Launch FDRS. 		
The VCMII/VCMIII or the VCMM icon should turn green in the bottom right corner of the screen. If it
does not, troubleshoot the FDRS to VCM connection.
c. If you are using the same FDRS as the initial programming attempt, select the appropriate VIN from 		
the Vehicle Identification menu. If you are using a different FDRS, select “Read VIN from Vehicle”		
and proceed through the Network Test.
d. In the Toolbox menu, navigate to the failed module and Download/Run Programmable Module 			
Installation (PMI). Follow the on-screen prompts. When asked if the original module is installed,		
select “No” and continue through the installation application.
e. Once programming has completed, a screen may list additional steps required to complete the 		
programming process. Make sure all applicable steps are followed in order.
