I have the current update to Sync3 3.4.23188 and the current Nav update. I have noticed, Yesterday the truck showed it was downloading a update. Nothing changed on the system info page. Does Ford send out random OTA updates on occasion?

When I had my 17 Mustang I would get Sirius/XM updates about once a month even though I didn't have a subscription. I have not noticed that with the Ranger. Are you sure the updates are not Sirius/XM updates you are seeing.

I have never seen that on mine, but I also turned that option (OFF)
But it may be related to - Ford Pass released an update yesterday, it may have been updating Ford Pass Connect to match the latest Ford Pass update.

I just logged into my Ford account and also see the same update but I don't know when it was done:. My Ford Pass app is 5.8.0 (updated Nov.22).

mine is doing that too. it bills through my cell phone so i can see that data it uses. normally, it is a minuscule amount. at one point it said that the update had completed. Then i saw the message across the top and says it is download an update. I know it has not finished, but so far this month it has used 4.9GB

Mines never updated. I called CS and they said the download is too big to load over WiFi and said the USB loaded from the Ford site is probably the best solution, or take to dealer.
