Bluecruise 1.4 officially being sent out to F150 & Lightnings starting today (12/11/24)!

I'm a Dec '22 build date MY23 truck, got the update last week. Tried it out this morning and it was fine. The highways here in the California high desert are all pretty awful especially CA-14. It didn't seem to bias much for big trucks, but that could be a setting issue. It did turn off my speed sign recognition feature which caught me off guard when I was slowing down manually and saw it wanted to command 75mph. Regression testing new software is always wise lol. It seemed to handle lanes better but also seemed a bit 'twitchier'. It used to slowly ping pong at times where this morning it seemed more aggressive in maintaining the center of the lane. I'll definitely need to explore that more. It did not prompt me to pass anyway even when they were much slower, but if I indicated it would check for me and start moving me over. I tried that once but it lose the lanes in the change and I had to take over.

So far nothing earth shattering, but I think I'll need to see it on a proper interstate compared two 4 lane highways plagued with construction to get a feel if it's a large improvement or not.

Y'All NEED to start using "signature" in your profile to give a persistent recap of where your build config stands, to save a lot of typing and mysterious Q's few inquiring minds..........

I wouldn't even know how to get all that info since Ford doesn't seem to provide the same version numbers on the UI. The website update tool is only showing me the update I received on 12/5... nothing from before that. It's like dealing with Microsoft, but 1000x worse.

Start with what was your last update, assuming one is showing on your Sync screen or Fordpass, then add to the list as time goes on.

I manually updated via FDRS and did the FORScan changes to make BC 1.4 work and add the buttons to the screen. I have a 22.

I make it a habit to take a photo of the truck screen immediately when I get an update. Similarly take a screenshot in the Fordpass app when that alert comes thru so I have my own records, regardless of what Ford makes accessible on their backend.

Since I (uncharacteristically, for me) failed to record my updates as they happened after I got my truck this spring, it's not possible for me to put this info in a signature. Hopefully Ford will expand the update history information to include everything back to the beginning but until then, unless there's another way to get that info, no can do.

Your MY, Trim and Battery, would be a good start.

Still nothing. If it doesn't come by 2025, I will reach out to dealer to see if the update process is stuck. Might have to be done by them. Wouldn't be the first time.

Unlikely to work. Most if not all dealers will not do software updates that are not a CSP or not in response to problem they're trying to fix. Ford tells them not to.

but if it’s an auto update issue? That was a problem I was having. The updates were not coming through.

That sounds like extra effort in my life. lol

Maybe a total of 10 seconds of effort each update. I'm fairly lazy but I can handle that much effort

More the realization that an update even happened. Unless I'm looking for something specific like BC 1.4, I'm not generally checking that screen. Hopefully, the Ford site will start reporting more than the 12/5 update it's currently showing

Every update I have gotten presents a large blue box on the infotainment from the top of the screen that says. "Update complete" and then you can press the button for details.

So we only know of a very few 2023 that got 1.4 already? Were they early access?

Is anyone having their vehicles bricked by this update or anything? Seems like it's rolling out slower than their usual. I normally get every update within 1-2 weeks after the early birds.. haven't gotten it yet.


Last update was to 10.1.1 11/16

HAVE ANY 22 LIGHTNING OWNERS RECEIVED THE 10.1.1 UPDATE?
I HAVE NOT SEEN AN UPDATE ON MY 22 SINCE SEPTEMBER AND IT WAS 6.14.1 I BELIEVE.

"I haven't gotten an update that I want yet" is not a problem that the dealer can solve. You and everyone else is anxiously awaiting it and hasn't gotten it yet.

 

[Zed]

Yes, I think many of the 22's have it. Mine updated in November.

November?? Are you in the EAP?
