Got 4.2.6 and it wiped out my radio presets, anyone else ran into this?

Same here. It wouldn’t allow me to re-set it up as it wouldn’t capture previous charging locations. Bad for Home location.

UPDATE: I let the MME charge to 100% and then my ability to setup location and 90% target became available again.

Forgive me if this has been posted already, but aside from notifications, is there any way to tell if 4.2.6 (or its FDRS equivalents) has been installed by looking at 'About SYNC' in the vehicle?

After receiving this update on June 9th, I plugged my Mach E into my home charger on June 10th. My FordPass charging settings are to charge to 80% which it has always done. After charging completed on the 10th, the car was charged to 100%. I called Ford and my call was passed to someone in the charging group who said that there is a bug in this release that sometimes will allow the car to charge beyond your Ford Pass settings. They said they will be releasing a bug fix for this but could not provide a date. Curious if others have seen this behavior after the update?

I was wondering. My last update (2023 CA Rt 1) was 4.2.2.2 on March 17. I'm open to the idea that 2023s don't need these.

My vehicle is a job 1, and I've always gotten every single OTA update at about the same time folks started reporting them on the forums, but 4.2.2.2 was the last update I received several months ago, and I have not received a single update since that UI refresh with 4.2.2.2 update.

Is this a common problem, or is my vehicle being omitted from this flury of new updates for some reason?

Same here. Thanks for calling Ford for us all.

I'm in the 20x failed install group. Car scheduled for 20k service on Wednesday. Sounds like LVB charge would take too much time but can service peeps bypass this requirement if I ask them to install update? 21 job 2

For me the note that the 12V could be a precondition not met is a bit embarrassing. Note that to their engineers not the owners.

This is what has baffled me since I first heard about this 12V precondition for OTA. THE EFFING CAR CONTROLS THE CHARGE TO THE 12V!!!! If there is an update, charge the 12V, then apply the update. What is it waiting for?

Not sure if this was mentioned earlier, but will this give us non GT owners a cut in power after 5 seconds to protect the HVBJB.

 

[superdave80]

Would that be due to a number of factors like outside temp, quality of EVSE, temp of battery? Shouldn't this have been in the software in the first place? Or is it just more conservative now? Surely it doesn't get close to as hot as doing DC charging.

It could also be your EVSE is overheating, so ramping down the power. This has been happening with my Ford charger (6kw, then ramps down to 3kw, cools down, ramps back up, repeat).

I left my Veepeak scanner on last night and no joy on the update though LVB being at 80% might have also influenced that as a low battery was listed as the cause. It was charged to 80% on the HVB but 80% on the LVB. At work it asked me if I wanted to update, sure why not? And it updated just fine. Wiped my Trip1,2,3 memory. Charge settings are the same.

Ford engineers didn't like your forum posts and put your car on the "do not update" list.

Leave the battery charger on until it reaches 100%. Some updates need as much as 95% battery to start.

I definitely noticed today that my car doesn’t move backwards after I park in the garage. No wonder I’m parked closer to the wall now lol.
