Add me to the group as well. My Lariat was built on May 17th. and I have spent the last few days trying to figure out how activate FordPass. I will contact my dealer on the first of the week. Thanks to those trail breakers who found the solution and shared it with the rest of us.
If I were you I’d just take the cues you’re getting in this thread and make an appointment at your dealership to have them look up and follow the prescribed actions in SSM 49826. Sounds like it’s just a reset and reprogramming of modem-related functions (don’t quote me on that). Waiting for your dealer to figure it out likely isn’t the fastest course of action. ?
Some people are so smart (at least they think so) they refuse to take any help.Apparently the tech guy at my dealer has too much pride to just do the recommended fix from this forum.... He’s “working on it”
Already called the Sales Manager. He's actually a very cool, knowledgable guy. Had me send him this thread and Im just going to drop the truck of when my wheel well liners come in and knock it all out at once.
Pulled up this forum, and he applied the fix. Thanks for the help here.
Just wondering, do you know if the 21B33 recall is covered by the SSM 49826 repair? I had mine done last week. Reason I ask is I just got a notification from Ford pass about the 21B33 recall. Ford pass knows I had the SSM 49826 repair done as they followed up with a phone call afterwords.
I got the notification in the Fordpass app while I was at the dealer and I believe it's the same thing. That's what the tech said. I will wait and see if the paper work catches up and clears the notice in a few days.
