Default Suddenly noticing multiple weird problems

Previously to this morning I’ve never had any issues with my 2015 F-150. I went to start my truck and noticed it started about 1 second slower than it usually does. Then, when it turned on, my MyView screen wasn’t on the digital speedometer sub screen like it usually is, rather it was on the MyView main screen where you can select your different options. After I started driving, I heard my passenger side powered running board go down then retract, however, I hadn’t opened the passenger doors since I was alone. Once I got to my destination I was sitting in the parking lot with my truck in park and heard the AC turning on and off randomly. Finally, when I got back in my truck to leave a few hours later, it took even longer for my truck to start than in the morning, roughly 2-3 seconds. Has anyone ever experienced any of these problems? My initial thought is it’s the battery, but wanted to post here for any advice y’all might have. Thanks in advance.

Think I would get a new battery ASAP. Kind of sounds like a low voltage issue. Or at a minimum take the battery to have it tested and check for loose ground cable, etc. Good luck!

Thanks for the quick response hecilopter. I took it by auto zone and got the battery and alternator tested. The alternator and battery voltage tested good, but the batterie’s charge is 26%. I’ll try replacing the battery and see if it helps.
