Suspect that if it's not in your phone app, probably not on the car display either, given how they're connected. Not in either place on mine.
Gotcha. I've only had my car a little over a month so I'm new to the app, FDRS and the whole OTA/update experience at large. Far from the expert here. ?
If you send me your VIN in a DM I can check to see if you have the updates.
MR. Scoopman, Fun times!
I just ran your VIN:
Well that isn't at all surprising. Dealer is about the most incompetent and clueless place on the planet. I wish I had never bought this car. Oh well, I'll let it die in place then. I guess whatever they did means now I won't even get the correct version when OTA.
Well, if you really wish you had never bought it, I'm pretty sure you could easily get out of it for more than you paid for it.
In this case the dealer did what they were supposed to. They connected via FDRS, no updates were available with no indication from Ford that they were pulled. From their perspective this meant the vehicle was up to date.
I wouldn't want to sell a car that has a high chance of dying. Plus I'm not sure what I'd buy. Just had to pay a huge ADM for a plugin lexus. Fun times...
Except the paperwork says the recall code # was preformed successfully. Anyway I give up. I'll continue to wait for certain failure... ugh
What statistics are you using to determine that it has a "high" chance of dying? Or were you just being hyperbolic when you said you wish you had never bought it?
Unfortunately the paperwork does not identify the minimum version which must be installed to close the recall. With FDRS, if no new version is being offered and there is no indication of what version should be installed, then any reasonable person would assume that they are using the latest version. At the very least Ford should have put a notice in FDRS that the updates were pulled.
If you take the number of GT's and other failures on this forum since the update and right before alone, it is araming. A handfull of cases are not a big deal. A handful of all of a sudden cases here in our relatively small sampling, is quite alarming. This whole debacle has made owning and driving the GT anxiety producing. I guess not as bad as the 100k fire recall on some Ford hybrids, but that one is a least straight forward. I think Ford has handles this one horribly. But as is on any forum, there will be many different views, and that's ok. I don't like it, and I probably would not buy it again, although I do love the car itself for the most part.
