  1. When the outside temperature is about 35 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, the power distribution panel shows power is going to all four wheels. Regardless of the speed or distance driven, the panel never shows just the front wheels receiving power. If the outside temperature is above 35 degrees, the panel shows only the front wheels being powered after a short distance I have taken the car to the dealer and they claim they cannot find anything wrong. They road tested the vehicle and said everything was OK. Outside temperature was about 44 degrees during the road test. The dealer has not been able to find any other occurence of this problem. Does anyone have a similar problem or know how I can contact someone in Ford emgomeeromg that might be able to solve this issue?

    no lights inside or out

    The vehicle has a lot of active modules even when the ignition is turned off. Subsequently when the battery volts drops to a certain point, some of the modules/features start to turn off to save the battery. This is according to the service tech at the Ford dealer. The cold weather really plays havoc with the battery's voltage level. I use a battery minder/charge when I know I am not going out that day. It's a BatteryMinder Model 128CEC1 Do you have a problem with the power distribution display showing power to all four wheels even though the pavement is dry but the temp is 35 F or below? I hope this is some help.

    no lights inside or out

    I opened the driver's door on my 2023 Escape Platinum and there were no lights anywhere. Interior and exterior lights did not come on. Dash did not illuminate at all. The car sat in the garage for about three days. It did start right away but the center console and dash took a little longer than normal to come on. The car is a standard ICE model but acted like it was in deep sleep, or in some energy conservation mode. Is this the new normal?
  4. Thanks for the reply. I got a better picture of it and it turns out it the the pre collision warning indicator. It comes on when traveling on a two lane road with oncoming traffic. I still could not find it in the owner's manual.
  5. I have a yellow indicator light that comes on randomly on my new Ford Escape Platinum. It is not documented in the owner's manual and the dealer is not certain what it is since there are no DTC codes. It looks like a lanke keeper icon with a gear symbol below it. The lane keeper feature was turned off when the indicator came on. I tried to get a picture of it but it is blurry. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
