Told me to update a couple of days ago and now nothing works, remote start, tire pressure monitoring, oil life etc and I get an annoying message every time I open it asking me to share driving data - anyone else experiencing issues?

No problem here. I just used mine this morning to remote start.

I have automatic app updates turned off, I recommend you do the same, I’ve read the app reviews and most of them are nightmares…sorry it happened to you. Hopefully it fixes itself.

I had trouble accessing The owner’s manual a few days ago but all works fine now.

I have automatic updates turned on and have never had an issue with Ford Pass. If I happen to do a master reset on Sync in the truck I will need to relink Ford Pass to my truck but that is not a Ford Pass issue.

It works for me except of the fact that it has ALWAYS showed the location of my Ranger as Detroit. I have yet to find any way to change that. Any ideas?

Well, it won't change the app, but you could relocate a little east and north... Then the app would at least be accurate (most of the time).

I just fired mine up and no noticeable difference. Layout is different once again. There is a map tab that wasn’t there before. When I tap on that it’s showing the exact location of my truck and when it updated.

It was so long ago that I set all this up I cannot recall how I got the map location to work or if it happened automatically. There might be something in Sync settings for this as well so really look around in there.

Thanks! I did find in a past thread where someone said Ford had dropped the location feature. So, if that is true, I'm out of luck. ?

I just fired mine up and everything is in metric.

Oh Noes! My truck has 28k KM!

They did say decades ago that they were going to metric like it or not! ?
