Did you check your battery voltage? One time I didn't run my truck for about 3 weeks. It took quite a bit of driving before the ASS started working again.

I had a 2013 Audi that did that, didn't have auto start, but the auto unlock stopped working. Turned out the battery was bad (one cell was completely dry) Audi replaced it, but they also had to reset the battery management system as it "remembered" that it should be in a degraded state, even w/the new battery.

So I'll vote for weak battery.

Check the battery in your fob once in a while too, they can cause havoc when the get low. but with ASS not working i will also say engine battery.

Check your setting for the locks:

With the intelligent access failures I'm betting your battery is on it's way out.

The "economy" screen will tell you why your ASS isn't engaging.

Are you still within the 3yr/36000mi bumper to bumper warranty? See your friendly local Ford dealer.
If not, you can have the battery load tested for free at any battery retailer incl. Goodyear, Firestone, WalMart etc. I wouldn't just assume it's bad; hate to spend $2-300 on a battery and find out it's something else.

I was going to say something snarky about $2-300 for a small AGM battery, but then I checked Advanced Auto Parts and I now stand corrected.

Good to see those super cheap AGMs are doing really well in these trucks.....

I hope it is something cheaper for you.

I didn't want to start a whole new thread, but I'm wondering where my ASS is...

Haven't received truck, just put deposit down, I don't see the $50 credit they give since they stopped being included, but I don't see the feature listed on the sticker either...

Will I have ASS? I'm a big fan of ASS and I cant find my ASS right now and am just a little confused.

They took your ASS and didn't even pay for it. (Or removing it anyway)

Hmm, so most likely it wont have it? Can I add it? I'm one of the few that would benefit from it.
