Y'all, Ford absolutely knows about this. I reported it right when the update came out via Early Access Program. Then Ford responded to me via email and they even state they are working on the fix.
There's no doubt about that, but details matter such as the timing of the reversion and in my situation yesterday where it asked me twice help pinpoint the logic fail. Also, they just don't want you to use sport so there are fewer warranty claims, at least that's the theory I will be promoting.

Hey Brian @Ford Motor Company, I hope Ford doesn’t back burner or forget this fix as they shift focus to their EREV.

I don’t know if it’s related, but when this bug showed up with the previous update, I also started getting random ā€œdingsā€ occasionally on start up with no message. Similar to the one where you look away too long with BC or when entering a school zone. I’ll describe it as a ā€œbong bongā€.

FYI I have this case open w ford on it. Did it like the day or two after I got the update via the early access program. They stated engineers r working on it weeks ago. Maybe they are.

It makes you even wonder what the point of the EAP program is because I've seen multiple people say they reported it and yet they still released it to the masses...

I haven't figured out the timing or number of presses, if anything, but at least 3 times now I've cycled between yes and no for a bit before stopping on yes and it stayed in sport if anyone wants to help figure it out šŸ˜‚

My return to sport pop-up worked this morning, I had used it yesterday afternoon to enhance my regen-braking performance, it was diminished in normal drive mode which I attributed to the HVB being at at optimized 100% SOC.

Funnily enough, when I posted that my return to sport worked, right? Then the next long rest of the truck (after work) I got no popup and it went straight to normal....Crazy......

Team is working on the fix for this. I'll update y'all when I have more info.

I'd like the fix to just let me choose the default mode I want and call it a day. Skip the prompts completely. Also maybe add a button to keep the Pro Power off completely until it's needed?

This! 1000x this. Tired of turning off pro power each trip and setting a default drive mode for good would be great.

Adding another to the group. I prefer sport mode and I now have to go into the main head unit each time because selecting yes on the prompt doesn’t work. It reverts to normal after a few seconds. Real PITA if you ask me.
Ford, please fix this.

I will add that Ford replied to me via email this week, but didn’t say anything of value other than working on it. Bummer
