Power-Up OTA 6.2.1

[MacherAWD]

Wew! Glad they got the 21s unstuck!

Maybe that will dial back some of the negativity recently that’s been growing on the forums and FB groups. No joke had to step back from them. People are insane with demanding updates when they think they need them.

Seriously, my car took 2 OTAs yesterday, I installed the beta app and they pushed a bug fix a few hours later to the beta. Ford is doing good right now I would say.

Interesting. Same update the Lightnings started reporting today, but for them, it's 23-PU1103-NAT-VCE.

But they dorked up the notes and referenced OTA 6.2.0 instead of the original OTA 6.3.0 that the Lightning got the first time:

On a Lightning this should be reading 6.3.0....not 6.2.0 like it does on the MME.
the result is the same..you end up with Sync 1049.

Ok, here is my 6.2.1 experience so far:

1. Can confirm that auto-folding mirrors was reset to off. Also got a screen prompt whether I wanted to keep my rear occupant sensor off. Other settings appear to have been retained.

2. Can confirm that turning the alarm motion sensors off in settings reverts to on with each vehicle restart. The bastards just aren’t gonna allow us to keep them off.

3. My GOM reads 280 at 100%. I have an 4X 2021 originally rated at 270. And this is after I just completed a long highway drive yesterday afternoon at 30-40 degree temps into a headwind where I was only getting 2.1mi/kWh. This has probably already been discussed… did Ford unlock that extra 3kWh and include it in the GOM? This would appear to be the case mathematically, since 280 is the mathematical equivalent of 270 with the added 3kWH. But perhaps this was added previously and I am only noticing now because my driving data was reset yesterday evening with the recent update?

4. My brakes are jacked up this morning. Rough/slipping/uneven using 1PD. This might be because my car was parked outside L2 charging overnight in 20-30 degree temps. Hopefully nothing to do with the update.

Finished installing for me overnight. I wasn't able to activate the "Connected Services" tab and my mirrors were turned off. Re-booted sync and it fixed both. The UI change is barely noticeable but nothing else for me so far.

6.2.1 installed for me last night as well (after unnamed Power Up yesterday morning). Only issue so far is auto-fold mirrors. I'll watch for the alarm question returning.

So does the UI look different? If so can someone post an image please?

Same here. I even charged overnight in hopes that it would install this morning.

Man, they have been busy. OTA's are flying around everywhere for you guys, the Lightnings and the ICE trucks. They can mess up the notes all they way as long as the updates themselves are good and rolling.

Received 6.2.1 last night on my Job 1 2021. Hopefully more to follow soon.

Got 2 updates yesterday and now got 6.3

6.2.1 shows in FordPass. Checking the car, it shows “Not Complete” for 6.1. That is new as 6.1 successfully installed. October 11.

That means it is downloading/installing 6.2.1. Mine did the un-named update yesterday morning. When I left for work, I checked the updates to see if I had 6.2.1 and was met with update not successful for the un-named, even though it was. I got home, parked, turned the car off and back on and a pop up appeared saying sync was updating and some items might not be available. Then the update finished a few minutes later and software updates properly showed 6.2.1 installed.

No, FordPass actually says 6.2.1 is installed. But the car’s software screen changed from 6.1 installed to 6.1 “Not Complete.” FordPass and the software screen do not agree with each other.

I’ve see a few people say this, when I checked 6.2.1 installed correctly for them. Apparently it’s a bug. So ignore the screen if it says it didn’t install correctly and go by what FordPass shows. If FordPass says 6.2.1 installed then you’re good.
