System off to save battery

[Megan Spencer]

I bought a 2022 Ford Mustang back in January and I'm getting a notification on my screen that says "System off to save battery" it's a brand new car and I've never left the car on or any of the lights. It doesn't pop up every time I start the car either. It's usually when I go on lunch break at work. What should I do?

Drive the car, it's just a low battery warning so the Sync 3 screen will not boot up to save power.

It's totally normal and nothing to worry about.

Ok thank you 😅

I had the exact same issue on my Mondeo.  Despite driving the car on a long trip.   Turns out that yes, it is a low battery warning (did you also notice the chimes changing tone), but also the "advanced battery monitoring system" is not that great.  I had to do a manual reset by flashing the lights and pumping the brakes a few times, before it started behaving again.
