Can you tell me how we can have the following MHEV unit picked up for disposal? Finis:2479751
If the battery is not new, unused, and undamaged, a battery evaluation must be completed.
The "evaluation" is a series of questions which determines battery status.
Status is defined as Green, Yellow or Red depending on condition, which in turn determines how the battery must be packaged for collection.
Please refer to GSB 22-7013 for packaging instructions.

I would like to understand the disposal process for a Kuga PHEV battery. I also would like to know what is the costs for disposal and who has to pay them?
Please review GSB 22-7013.

We have a 48v battery at our dealership, which we have replaced in a Transit. We have the evaluation and collection document filled out with the data of the battery and the vehicle and we need to know how to proceed for its return.
Please refer to GSB 22-7013

We have accident case with High Voltage Li-ion Battery WF0FXXWPMHNYXXXXX. It is a case with an insurance company. If the repair is approved, we need to order a new HV battery. What do we do with the old battery?
If battery is being replaced and not subject to a warranty claim (i.e. customer damage), the battery removed is owned by the customer or insurer.
It is for the customer / insurer (owner) to determine disposal but if the customer prefers that Ford arranges disposal, please complete battery Evaluation, and advise that battery should be collected.

I still have a battery awaiting removal. Can you do what's necessary?
Please refer to GSB 22-7013 and please complete evaluation on Home Page.

Our Ford team are preparing to order a new hybrid batter pack for a 2021 Ford ST line PHEV. Before I place the order, I would like to know the procedure for battery disposal.
Please refer to GSB 22-7013

What does URN Mean?
URN is the unique reference Number. This is a number which is provided to identify the battery and the evaluation status.

We have already performed the battery evaluation procedure on the ford battery collection, but we have not received a response.
Once the evaluation has been completed you will receive an automated response confirming evaluation has been received.
Response time on determining battery status may vary depending on the details of evaluation.
Typically, this will be within 24 hours, though in some cases this may take up to 5 working days if further investigations are required.
Final status will be informed via email together with packing instructions.

I need an ADR document for a PHEV battery with the FINIS: 2616756 as I need to arrange a pickup of new part in the original packaging (unopened). I cannot complete an evaluation because the battery was never installed. Could you please send me an ADR document?
If the pack is new, unused, and undamaged and packed in the original packaging it can be in most cases returned without further labelling via Ford return logistics if the original labels are still in place. Please refer to GSB 22-7013 for getting advice how to create an ADR document and how to check if the labelling still fulfils the requirements of the Dangerous Goods Regulations. Please note that staff involved in the shipment of dangerous goods must be trained and properly advised.
