Usually when I remote start the truck to heat/cool it, the truck starts for 15 minutes and there is a button on the bottom of FordPass that let's you extend to 30 minutes.

I noticed today the extend option has disappeared in my FordPass. My truck, now, only lets you run remote start for 15 minutes without an option to extend.

Anyone else noticed that?

I should mention I'm on Android.

Happened twice today. I let the 15 minutes expire and it wouldn't let me remote start again.

Had you manually started it between remote start attempts? I don't think it resets the extend limit if you haven't manually started things.

Every time I tried, it was untouched since I had last turned it off after driving it. Both times were in Parking lots after a short drive.

Tried rebooting your phone?

I'm having a harder time adding a pic to this post than I am starting and adding time to Climate.

Really wish Ford would get with the times and not impose these artificial limits meant for an ICE vehicle on the EVs

I'm going to close the thread for now, as it's possible this as a pre-release issue, and buggs are being resolved for the final release.
