24 EB no start/died

[mdademdurk12]

This is about my 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost with the 2.3 l automatic w/6000mi. When I was leaving to work as usual, I attempted to start the car in remote start to let it warm up. The car would not start with remote start and the horn chirped a couple times.
I went inside the car and try to start it with the push button start with no luck. Not even a crank, but all the accessory power, radio, speedometer display, Etc was on. No battery light. It refused to even crank so I started it with a portable lithium jump pack. Refuse to start a few more times than turned over and ran. I put it in reverse and the car died immediately. Would not start again. It displayed every warning light in the book. Abs, traction control, service wrench, seat memory unavailable, service soon, etc.

I left and got alternative transportation to work. I got home about 12 hours later and it turned right over with remote start. Drove it up and down the driveway a few feet seemingly with no issue.

Any ideas? Don't want to get stranded. Thinking about trying to drive it to Ford so they can take a look at it.

I'm refreshing myself on this topic and including several links, one of which references a Special Service Message that might be involved.

The problem you're encountering plagued several cars early on in production. I noticed your car is a 2024; it might be one of those.

The fix is simple: at least one module is re-flashed with the latest software.

Whinf (when/if) if happens again try a forced reboot by removing the negative lead on the battery for 30 seconds.
