I got an email from the Early Access team on this a few days back. They invited me to be a ver 5 beta tester. The email had a link to sign up which took me to a survey. Also there was an agreement to share my comments only with Ford. They also made it clear that it’s a beta version so an...
I was enrolled in the EAP 2 days ago and got the radio preset fix update yesterday. That could have just been a coincidence as it was kind of the next one in the queue for my truck.
I was accepted into the Early Access Program yesterday and got the radio update today. I never had a problem with lost radio presets after updates and my presets are still there after this one. Apple Car Play is working fine. I lost My View settings but that's typical.
6.8.0 downloaded 3 days ago. The scheduled install failed twice. Each time sync said the install was interrupted by another process. So today I turned off the scheduled updates and did an "Install Now". Boom-6.8 install competed in 15 minutes. I think I'll keep the install schedule off so I have...
OK that means it will be soon my turn for 6.5 (y)
Edit:
The wait for a few days after @Big Dog Daddy gets it and drive to the liquor store trick worked again.
6.5 installs tonight.
I didn't see any expiration date for the $600 offer so I think you can wait if you want. I have a trip scheduled in mid-January so I don't want it to expire on the 1st.
I went ahead and signed up for another 3 years of BC for my Job 1 '21. BC in my truck has performed fairly well. It doesn't ping pong and stays within a few inches of dead center in the lane. OTA's for my truck have been regular and trouble free except for the blank rev glitch about 18 months...
I never got an email regarding BC for my Job 1 '21. The notification of BC expiring 12/31/23 is on the Ford Owners site and in Ford Pass. Look under connected services.
Right on queue, I got the same notice a day after you. I always watch for Big Dog's postings to know when I'm getting my next update. My install is scheduled for 1:00 AM tomorrow.
Some dingus drove a riding mower across a gravel parking lot while I was cruising down the road. Direct hit to the front passenger window. :LOL:Replacement window will be installed on Monday.
My truck is getting this update today. My last one was also the day after you got it. Perhaps it's a Lariat extended cab thing 🤷♂️
Looking forward to your posting on the 4.3.5 thread.
My truck often thinks the weight limit signs are speed limit signs and misadjusts accordingly. I reported the bug to Ford in '21 and it's still a problem with my truck.
