People who download from Cyanlabs are already on it. I haven't seen any issues. Read post here.

Had it since October. No major changes noted.

Decided to do the USB update today. Approx 10 minutes for the update, no issues.

Confirmation file uploaded as well!

I say no upgradation without explanation!

According to Cyanlabs, this is an apps update. So if you're not using the Ford apps, you could probably pass.

I updated by USB, and completed (conformation) by Wi-Fi.

Downloaded/toUSB/into truck (25min) today.
No probs, everything seems happy.
Thanks for the heads-up.

I tried updating to the latest version via WIFI. The Ranger is 10 ft away from the modem on the other side of the garage wall. The "checking for updates" circles went around & around & around for over 45 minutes. I finally shut everything down and downloaded the update onto a thumb-drive. Update took about 10 minutes.

I still can not upload the xml file on Ford's web site, so it is still showing that an update is available.

Now that you are "updated" by USB, try connecting again to "update". I find it will send the acknowledgement file. This should complete it. Also just check to ensure you are connected to your modem first.

I did the first update via thumb-drive shortly after I got my truck in May 2019, and haven't done any since....too many folks having weird issues afterwards. Plus it's a pain in the ass, so no more updates for me.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

OTA updates are staged out, you can't get it day one, or necessarily at the same time some other guy got theirs. The USB method is available for those who can't wait another day for an update they won't notice.

I updated today, took about 15 to 20 minutes. I was even able to upload the XML file.

Maybe it's wishful thinking but the fonts on the nav screen seem crisper. Other than that I didn't notice anything else.

Did you use WIFI or a thumb drive?

My 2020 Escape updated just fine via WIFI today & the web site shows that it is current.

Ranger is still a no go. It won't upload the update confirmation via WIFI or by uploading the XML file on their web site. It's not the end of the world.....but it sure irritates me!

Are you sure its 22251 and not 22200 that came out a few months ago?

Edit: I just logged into my online Ford account, and it shows that the update is available. I'm going to download it now and do the USB method in a day or two.
