When I got home it did a weird reset which was 2.8.3. There was an update successful message but no version notes. It does has sync version 22095_PRODUCT now so I guess I'm all up to date.

edit: actually update notes finally came through. woo hoo minor adjustments

I have 2.8.3 on my Job 1, but no BlueCruise even though the “about” page says I’m licensed into October for hands-free driving, and the 2.8.2 said BC is installed.

I called corporate and they said the problem was on their end. I don’t really care all that much, and I really appreciate all the other enhancements, especially as I had been stuck on 1.7.1 until my dealer fixed it in late April.

Love the MME.

Me too. Exactly the same situation. Just went into connected services on the ford site, and it doesn't show anything for blue cruise. Used to have coming soon. Also had blue cruise installed at the dealer before all the recent OTA updates. Neither it nor 2.8.2/3 have gotten blue cruise working. But, I will just wait a while. Too tired of trips to dealer for now. Just going to chill and see what happens.

Coming fast now. 2.7.2 installed yesterday, saw 2.7.3 queued up at lunch with the widget, then saw in FordPass it will be installed tonight during the scheduled update window (1AM). Going to let that run and see what I have tomorrow. Hope they keep coming 1 a day until they're all installed

My account page changed from Coming Soon, to missing BC altogether, to Activation Pending (just today). But I think it is still not working on my car. Lane centering remains broken.

I went through the same steps:

1) 21G01 at dealer
2) 2.8.2 OTA
3) 2.8.3 OTA

Got the menus in the car, but continue to get BC Not Available message in the car when I select lane keeping on the steering wheel.

Got 2.8.1 last night. A bit of strange behavior on my commute- one pedal driving was NOT working despite being turned on (turned off and on to no avail) until about 5 minutes into the drive. Got on freeway and hit cruise control- and got a BlueCruise is active notice!!! Took my hands off of the wheel for a few seconds, then for some reason I turned cruise control off. Turned it back on and it was no longer Bluecruising… just regular intelligent cruise.

2.7.3 installed on my way home.

Got 2.7.2 last night and this morning I tried the "smoother braking"... Seems like the opposite to me, but oh well, the car still stops when I tell it to..

It installed on your way home? That’s a scheduled/inhibit update.
280 mile round trip, stopped to change for a few minutes, saw the install and figured why not.. took less than 5 minutes to install even though it says 30.. so it downloaded on my drive, I just waited 5 minutes after I stopped fast charging before resuming the trip.

(Charger was at a Walmart so I looked around the garden center and got confused for someone who worked there by two different people.. actually ended up charging for 30 minutes instead of 10, but the install afterwards was just enough to buy a soda).

Yes after 17 months our FE is getting BC too! Just in time to use it for the two hour drive to trade it in! I will be hands free in I-10 Niceville to Mobile! Wonder if the GT will be active when we pick it up the 12th?

Has anyone confirmed which (if any?) update in the 2.7.1-2.8.3 series updates the charge curve? I have 2.7.2 (which I thought did this), but it still seems to slow down at 80%.
