2023 Escape Hybrid wont start gets a stop safely and Pedestrian sounder Fault Service Now and check engine code U3012

[ESCAPE23]

2023 Ford Escape Hybrid  55,000 miles

 

I keep having this issue  i go to start my truck and i get these messages

Stop safely 

Pedestrian sounder Fault Service Now

And the check engine light comes on and sets a code U3012

 

Eventually i get it to start by shutting down, opening the door so everything shuts off and waiting a few mins

 

Sometimes it takes 30 mins to get going again.

 

after i go through 3 start and stop cycles the check engine light goes off.

 

Has anyone else seen this happen?

I'm betting the FoMoCo service department at your local dealer has seen it....what did they say? But, lacking their advise and guidance, a good start would be to have your 12V battery checked out as when they go bad, there are a host of issues that pop up.

The dealer said it has to be totally failed for them to find the problem or leave it with them a week and they will see if they can find anything

 

I first thought it was the battery,  but it has done this after shutting the car off and trying to restart.

The battery voltage was fine at the time.

Bring your battery to a independent shop and have it load tested.
