ODDITY: Bunch of errors/alerts - later, FordPass says to ignore = no history???

[mr.Magoo]

Hopefully those that are, disable the automatic updates during those critical activities, in which case it should be a non-issue ?
That is, unless F.O.M.O. is greater than the fear of mal-acting updates ?

Kind of like Apollo 11 landing when the computer was overloading during moon decent. CAPCOM said to the Eagle crew "Roger, we copy. We're go on that alarm"

Appreciate the confirmations that this was a snafu. I get it, stuff happens.
I'm not sure I'm in agreement with the handling and decision of auto-deleting the "oops/please ignore" message.

*** Forgive the weird title of post, but it seems to match the strangeness of the scenario I'm about to describe. ***

So...late last night, I left the house to pickup the family from a holiday party. I noticed a bunch or alerts via the FordPass (ahem, Ford) App.

1. 12v battery
2. One-touch window operation
3. Wheel alignment
4. Wheel vibration

Unfortunately, I didn't take any screenshots, but read each alert's description.

Fast-forward a bit; back home and in sort of a hurry to charge as I was down to 38% and had already lost an hour within my reduced-rate charging plan. I performed forum searches for the wheel alignment/wheel vibration errors, but saw no results.

So this morning (and half-asleep), I notice on my phone's lock screen: Ford App, stating "please ignore the xxxx alerts"...and when I clicked on that message, it opens Ford App....to NOTHING!

No history of the errors/alerts (Ford App/Ford.com account), not even the detail I wanted to see in the "please ignore" message.

I went to sleep thinking about how my morning was going to start, on whether I needed to look into things, or reset 12v, etc. I'm even glad to sleepily see the initial ignore lock message...but at least keep that last message in history (or let me read it once)!

Wondering if anyone has experienced this situation or behaviour?

I did have the 12v and one touch window operation message.

If only everyone and everything could be perfect all the time...

Just yesterday Delta had a major outage in Detroit stopping all flights for hours, last year CrowdStrike had an issue causing issues all over the world, so to flame Ford for something that might not even have been their fault (directly anyway as I doub they wrote the software for the servers) is kind of harsh.

To err is human, to really screw up, you need computers...
