2021 Ranger Dead and Wouldn’t start

[KeyLargoBill89]

So I was leaving the gym this morning and noticed my key remote wasn’t unlocking the truck So I unlocked it manually. When I put my key in the ignition nothing powered up, and no turning sound. Thought it was a dead battery and was about to call my brother for a jump until I realized I would try starting the truck from the ford app and low and behold it worked. Got home and everything appears normal again, battery terminals are on tight and clean. As anyone else had this issue? My truck only has 16k on the clock and it makes me a little nervous.

This problem has been seen on here before and appears to be some kind of Ghost in the machine and may or may not ever be seen again. Not a specific fix I have heard of.

Knock on wood it’s been working fine ever since.

I have not seen this on my Ranger but saw the same thing on my previous vehicle, Ram 1500. After a couple times it started working
I agree with the above, just a ghost we see in modern vehicles. You may see it again or you may not. No sense worrying about it.

Glitch in the matrix. You haven't been taking your pills, have you?
