Power reduced

[macanjr]

VIN 324xx mY (<1k mi) got below error pulling out of the garage, and steering wheel wouldn't turn.
Power Reduced. Exiting and re-entering vehicle may restore operational power.
Exiting and re-entering did resolve the issue, but obviously can recur.

It's also been having false frunk open warnings and bad trunk 12V AC port, so it's been at SC since 2 days ago. The original appointment was not until 9/28, but service manager proactively contacted me to bring it in next day after scheduling from the app.

I had this Power Reduced. Exiting and re-entering vehicle may restore operational power message today and it also went away after I exited and re-entered.

Did service find out what causes this message?

1. "Power Reduced" error service report:

Removed and replaced front body controller. Verified proper fitment and applied necessary firmware. Function tested and verified proper operation at this time.
Correction: Module - Body Controller - Front (Dual Motor) (Remove & Replace)
Part
ASY. FRONT CONTROLLER GEFN 3 (1497317-00-F)
​

2. Frunk open false alerts:

"improper communication within front body controller module."​

3. Rear 12V AC outlet not working was due to loose connection they had to secure.

It was in the service center for 8 days. I had a 50K mi M-X as loaner, which kids thought was very cool and got some looks at kids' elementary school. Falcoln Wings draw too much attention for my taste. Interior feels a bit dated compared to M-Y, but the huge screen that fits 3 functions (map/music/cameras) was very nice. Definitely bigger outside, although inside--including trunk--didn't feel like it.

I had the same error once. As with you, getting out and back in fixed it and it hasn't been back since, no other errors.
