i just saw this, but I didn’t get a notification of anything being updated. Not sure if this is a new one, or one that came out a while back and I’m just now receiving it.

Post your VIN over in this thread, and @rugedraw can probably take a look and see what caused the failure. PTS/FDRS VIN Check

I got it installed with FDRS. I’m not sure what would have happened if I didn’t go that route. I assume it would have continued failing.

Did the 2 updates in FDRS, and only took about 20 minutes this morning.

My first OTA in 14 months. I guess doing the updates through FDRS put my truck back in line for them. However, it’s show as Not Completed.

I feel like I'm in a brand new truck. I hadn't had any updates since July of 2023. So I broke down and bought the Mongoose and went from Sync 713 to 1076 over the weekend. Needless to say, there are quite a few changes that happened in between there that I'm just now finding out about.

Another change I noticed is when you put the truck in reverse and the cameras come on the screen, all of the different camera angle buttons appear next to the 360 camera now. I don't think the buttons were there before, but I could be wrong. I thought they only appeared when you manually clicked...

It took me about 2 hours to get it downloaded and installed.

It looks like it's $75 per month or $800 per year for the 2024 and 2025 models. There isn't anything about pre-2024 though. https://www.ford.com/technology/bluecruise/ (towards the bottom of this page)

It worked great for me. I never saw it go above 40amps, and the lowest the voltage of the battery ever got was 12.4V for just a split second and jumped right back up to 13.6V.

I’m glad I invested in the mongoose and power supply. It’s just sad that we have to go that route when Ford should be doing these updates OTA.

I just got this one this morning. Haven’t had time to look around to see what else changed besides the icons. It was a 6gb install, so it took about 2 hours from start to finish.

I got the final APIM update done. I went from 4.2.x to being all the way caught up. The only one I can’t do is the BCM, but maybe that will come to me in an OTA now. (And hopefully I actually start getting OTAs now) @rugedraw you've been amazing. I can’t thank you enough for helping me and...

I’ve been able to upgrade to sync 23291 so far. There’s another APIM update waiting for me, which I’ll do tomorrow morning, and maybe it will unlock more updates. I’ll have to wait and see. And there is a BCM update, which I can’t do since you need some other login. But overall, this has gone...
