2023 Lightning Lariat, 2011 F-150, 98 Expedition
I have 2 trucks in my "garage" in Ford Pass, my Lightning and an older F-150. When opening the app, it now always starts with the older F-150. It used to open with the Lightning.

I can't seem to find a way to set the Lightning as the default vehicle. I know I can delete the older one, but I'd rather not.

You cannot set a default vehicle in the app. It seems to put the most recently-added vehicle first. HOWEVER, whatever vehicle you select stays as the one you see when opening the app the next time.

That's the way it used to work. But now it starts with the older vehicle every time. On Android...
Not for me.

My 2022 Mach-E was in the app longer. Mine always starts on the last vehicle.

I'm seeing this behavior where it switches to a different vehicle than I last had open and I'm on Android Ford App version 6.9.0. @RickLightning, which app version are you on?

My Mach-E is vehicle #2. I rebooted phone today, with Mach-E as the active vehicle. When it rebooted, it still was the active vehicle.

Can't comment on Android, but with iOS they changed how the shortcut system worked, you used to be able to select a specific vehicle for the shortcut, now it's been changed to ask every time or use last used. In context, it may be deliberate. Hopefully just temporary though.

I had the vehicle changing thing happening multiple times over a couple of days, but then last night I sat down and tried to reproduce it and no longer could. Hasn't happened since, but then this morning my truck also couldn't recognize my key to start the truck. Ended up using my backup passkey.
