Just got an email


You are among a very select group of owners/lessees invited to provide initial feedback to Ford Motor Company via the Connected Vehicle Data Drive Community!

This important customer collaboration project gives you access to two Over-the-Air vehicle software updates before anyone else as well as the ability to provide Ford with feedback on the update via two short surveys, approximately once a month. Ford is counting on you for your help with this initiative.

In appreciation for collaborating with Ford and supporting this very important initiative, you will receive a $20 Amazon e-gift card code via email after the first Over-the-Air update is complete on your vehicle and you complete the first of two surveys. In appreciation for your time, after the completion of the second Over-the-Air vehicle update and you’ve completed the second survey, you will receive an additional $20 Amazon e-gift card code via email.

To be a part of this very exciting project with Ford Motor Company, please click the link below to complete a short qualifying survey

I got this too. Given my 12v battery issue and the major updates required to get the MMe to properly function, I‘m not sure if I want this.

I definitely want to help, but I feel like my car is a fragile ecosystem, and any new update could undue what was recently fixed.....

Or it could be a good opportunity for you to have your voice heard by Ford.
I agree it could be scary to take "beta" software but I don't think they actually labeling it "beta" right?

I decided to move forward with it.
I clicked ”no” on the NDA, and I was informed the survey cohort was already full and they no longer needed my help.

I signed up just now.

I'm a bit irritated that there isn't a way for EVERYONE to report the issues and general feedback, and they will be relying on a select few to make their voices heard. But it's a start, I guess.

Low key, I am excited to be a part of this.

Just got the email and signed up also! This is awesome! I've always wanted to be in a beta testing thing for something like this.

and now I'm agreeing to an NDA
That's probably what the gift card is for. They can't force and NDA on you without compensation. Assuming of course you were being serious.

The few can still provide the feedback of the masses from the forum though! Maybe you can report back some of the issues others are experiencing noting that you are not (or are) also experiencing them.
