Mmm, well I would have expected that to be new enough but older systems can have an EFI partition that is too small.

Try running gpart list and check the size. It should be at least 200MB. For example:
1. Name: da0p1
   Mediasize: 272629760 (260M)
   Sectorsize: 512
   Stripesize: 0
   Stripeoffset: 20480
   Mode: r1w1e2
   efimedia: HD(1,GPT,c9024410-fde3-11ee-bfd2-0008a212ecd4,0x28,0x82000)
   rawuuid: c9024410-fde3-11ee-bfd2-0008a212ecd4
   rawtype: c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b
   label: efiboot0
   length: 272629760
   offset: 20480
   type: efi
   index: 1
   end: 532519
   start: 40

it seems mine is exactly 200
209715200 (200M)

Hmm, is that system actually booting UEFI?

it should be. it showed the same values as you except mine 200M
label and type both efi

this is the first update i had this problem i have a 128 gb nvme in there i think it was.

Run sysctl machdep.bootmethod just to be sure it's booting UEFI. It's possible that partition was never formatted if not.

sysctl machdep.bootmethod

yes macdep.bootmethode: UEFI

Hmm, OK what does geom -t show?

geom -t

Is it mounted? How does it show in the output of df -hi?

If the filesystem is just smaller than the partition you may be able to fix that with the commands shown here:
