Yesterday I had Power Train Malfunction/ Reduced power, High Voltage Battery Warnings come up and my power meter on my dash was 2/3 grayed out. I haven't seen the exact symptoms anywhere else on the forum specifically the power meter being grayed out but I think some of that may be to being on the new software 2.8.3.
I was able to continue driving and didn't test how much power I actually had and drove directly to the dealer where it sits now waiting for a diagnosis.
A little history:
I have had intermittent errors for 12V system and 12V system drain but have always gone away and never caused any noticeable drivability issues and haven't happened for several months
About 3 weeks ago I started the car and had a powertrain malfunction warning come on so I scheduled an appointment at Ford for service that finally happened about a week ago. They had the car for 2 days and told me it was related to the recall, their documentation says all they did was update the software to 2.8.3 and sent me on my way.
Yesterday while driving on the freeway with bluecruise I got the powertrain warnings. I did notice about 30 seconds before that I had 3 or 4 gray bars on the power meter which seemed weird since I was cruising at 71 and the outside temp was in the mid 70's
