Official summary

Some 2017 Fusion and MKZ vehicles may exhibit an illuminated MIL with DTC P068A. Address any additional DTCs first. This DTC can set when battery voltage is low or a battery drain condition exits. The root cause of the low battery condition must be identified and corrected before addressing DTC P068A. Refer to Powertrain Control Emissions Diagnosis Manual (PC/ED) for further diagnosis. Review OASIS for other battery drain related messages.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
