Missing Tire Pressure App

[RickLightning]

My tire pressure app is now gone. I even rebooted Sync and it's still gone. This app is critical for me to be able to drive the truck safely, and it's gone. A friend mentioned I shouldn't rely on the TPMS system as a replacement for a tire gauge, and asked why I didn't just use a tire gauge? I said "what, I should kneel down, remove the cap, and get my hands dirty? I paid $80,000 for this truck and the tire pressure app is GONE!".

[tongue-in-cheek, but my app disappeared I assume from a recent update]

Did you check in the dash display? I believe mine disappeared from the Sync display after one of the FDRS updates.
Menu -> Truck Info -> Tire Pressure

It was redundant since the info is also available in the instrument panel. Mine disappeared about the time the SoC got added to the instrument panel. Not sure if it was the same update, but the timing was close.

Funny how they remove it in the truck but not the Mach-E...

The Mach-E doesn’t have it available in the instrument panel.

Double check your selected features in the custom / my menus on the drivers screen, IIRC I've had my favorites change after an update, I had to reselect them.

I didn't realize there was an app - I assume you all truly mean on the center stack screen. I've only used the one on the screen behind the wheel.

The latest update has tanked Alexa and the press for Ford prompt - any slight chance it is related?

On a side note - I noticed a week back I had 3 perfect rows of apps - 18. Then I looked a few days ago and one was missing. Then today all 18 back. I need to take a picture so I can compare if it drops back to 17 again.

It's way more convenient on the inst cluster. I didn't even realize it had an app.

You can keep it up on the ic all the time and still have your big screen for nav and Spotify.

You are once again safe from low tire pressure.

NO!!!!!

Have mine in the Ford pass app (Android) as well as in the truck.

Ford pass > Vehicle > Status > Tire Pressure Monitoring

Also, the app is not nearly as useful since they shrunk the tiles. You used to be able to see the pressures in the tile with the app minimized.

It's illegal in my state to use your cell phone while driving, or even sitting at a light.

I had no idea it was in the center stack also, probably saw that back in May when I got the truck, but never went back because it's in the center.

I think Ford should not spend time making the interfaces between vehicles different. It actually took someone effort to say "Let's remove Tire Pressure from the Lightning". What a waste of effort.

Mine too.

But with the app, you can check your tire pressure while taking the Browns to the Superbowl, or while waiting in line at the bank, or while HR does the company mandated IT Security training.

I've only had my lariat er for 2 weeks. Tire pressure disappeared from the instrument cluster yesterday. Used it several times before. Never saw anything in the center console for Tire pressure. Ford pass is my only way to see it now.
