Coolant replace reset???

Ok just purchased a 2015 F350 w/6.2L and only 8600 miles on it.

I got it home and going thru the screens on the dash under maintenance it says "replace coolant" press ok to reset.

Replace coolant??

Anyone seen this? Replace coolant is not even listed as a item under maintenance in the owners manual.

I think the diesels have a "check coolant" reminder, but not the gas trucks. I have a 2011 6.2l and don't recall ever seeing a coolant reminder

Looked at a 2017 manual online and it says that it is a reminder at preset mileage intervals to actually change the coolant. That's a new one to me.

Ford's trying to push their coolant sales......

I would just ignore the reminder, if it were me.

From the Owner's Manual.
I interpret this as if you changed your coolant. Go to this maintenance display, hold down the button, and it will reset the coolant reminder interval.
