The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Owners of the 1 model year this bulletin names have filed 91 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 36 of them name Electrical System — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.

The contact owns a 2022 Ford F-150. The contact stated while driving 10 MPH, the messages "High Voltage Power Train Fault" and “Stop Driving and Contact Your Nearest Dealer" were displayed. The contact stated that he continued driving until it was safe to pull to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to the residence.

While driving, a loud static sound started over the speakers and would not stop. It was so loud I could not continue driving and I immediately developed a headache. Even after I pulled over, turned off the truck and left for about minute it still continued.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Ford 22-PU0930-RBACHM a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 22-PU0930-RBACHM repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does 22-PU0930-RBACHM cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
