Priority Update - BCM-24.5.1 - Convenient Frunk Closing

[larrylsb]

Another one.

My frunk always locked securely before this update. WAL not received, paak, no, blue cruise, no even though I have a Lariat. But I did get this unnecessary update.

Hopefully in quick succession you'll get BC-1.4, I got mine the day after this one.

2 hours for 17kWh? Must've been derate city

I get about 9kWh per/hr with my Level 2 charger. Is that slow?

Guess I misread his post. Thought the rate he was giving was for a supercharger (level 3) since he mentioned a tesla station. I can charge at 17kW since I have a 23 ER and fcsp set at 80 amps. Vast majority of 24+ max out at 48 amps, so about 10kW is the max speed you'll see on level 2

I got the update--now the frunk AND tailgate close when the truck is locked...about time. Now for the crazy part. On the first drive I heard a few quiet beeps and saw the passenger side heat go up to max and stayed there. I manually dropped it back down and it stayed. Dunno if it's a byproduct of the update but I hope it was the last time.

Anyone else having issues with this update? I have been trying for a week or so with no luck. Tried while charging or not charging via schedule, and pushing update manually. no luck. Any suggestions?

This Frunk OTA bricked my Lightning. It has been at the dealership since August 19th. Getting ready to initiate a buy back.
My suggestion, if you are happy with the way your Lightning is configured, turn off automatic updates.

Have you reached out to @Ford Motor Company for any assistance they might be able to lend?

Yes, when my Lightning bricked it was due to the failed frunk OTA. The attached immediately appeared on the screen. I have been getting the run around ever since I called. Ford just keeps calling the dealership servicedepartment. But my service writer is excellent. We talk every few days. And the conversation is always Ford told us to do this or that or replace this part. When Ford Customer Service calls me with an update, they tell me what i have already heard from my service writer. I don't think Ford Customer Service has ever talked to their technicians that are supposed to be helping the dealership mechanic fix the issues. I get the impression that Ford doesn't know how to fix my Lightning. And it is blatantly obvious that Ford doesn't care.

48A x 240V = 11.5Kw

48A x 240V = 11.5Kw

Before losses, so right around 10kw to the battery
