    We do about 4000 miles pa so should last at least 10 years. We bought it last year from a Ford dealer but didn't get any warranty documents. It is now treated as a replacement part! So far Ford have had the car 10 days and no solution to fix it!
    How old is the car?

    As Ford are 
    • Three years or 60,000 miles from new, whichever comes first

    Our Ford Kuga (plug in hybrid) developed a fault in November'23 relating to the high voltage battery. The local Ford garage took 3 months to fix it and finally installed a new battery.

    You haven't had the battery for a year.
