Yeah, right? Don’t let me lock the car if there’s going to be server maintenance in the next hour. Or give me a warning I need to confirm before it locks.
The best part is not all vehicles get affected at the same time.

at 7:05 am this morning my remote start worked normally.

during the previous issueI was about 24 hours behind others on this forum for the exact same issue.

Getting a similar warning in Oz this morning, after a couple of people on FB complained of being locked out over weekend. Not cool when road service can be hours away in Australia.

I got warning saying there was issues just now, then just a white screen with Ford logo.

Maybe they are doing an update, to make using the app quicker than just walking to the car and starting it, waiting a few minutes for it to cool down, then getting in? Or am I being too optimistic?

I got the same this morning and it still won't start this evening (6PM). This time I didn't receive the message.

EDITED TO ADD: Looks like all functions on FORD PASS are down for me at this time. :frown:

I wonder if it has anything to do with the Lightning Build & Price going live today ? The Ford website has been down most of the morning also .
I sure hope not because the B&P shouldn't have anything to do with the app. But if it's anything like the Bronco ordering it'll take a couple years to get it up and running again. ?

Retired, work is a four letter word.
back in the 70s and 80s I remember when a physical key worked 100% of the time when the internet or AWS was down. Maybe they should bring those keys back in case something like this happens
One reason I like my XLT 'Key', Oh, and there was no 'internet' in the 70's & 80's as such, the WWW did not go online until 1991 when the code was released by CERN. The 1st email provider was 'Hotmail' in 1996. I had the first 'Home Banking' with BofA in 1989, green screen and no graphics. The 'Good old Days'

I can't even sign in to ford.com from my desktop computer. I guess I will have to contact my dealer tomorrow.

Yep, The first version of Windows, released in Nov 1985, was simply a GUI offered as an extension of Microsoft's existing disk operating system, MS-DOS, and looked like this.

I stand by my comment. This was the same time frame when netflix only sent out 8 tracks by mail

I remember buying a Tandy TRS-80 from Radio Shack back then as my 1st PC . If only I had spent another 100 bucks and bought some Microsoft stock to go along with it , I"d be all set right now :)

That's why I got one of these. Never have to take my key and never have to worry about cell signal.

What happens if some assholes rips it off your truck while you're gone?
