Bluecruise Version Poll (List per Fords table) V2

[CarGuy11]

BTW, I just now looked up the VIN for a '21 model that did benefit from the EA OTA 7.x.x BC 1.4 program.

And while I realize that the BC 1.3 OTA has not gone out to '21 models yet (EA or otherwise), I can tell you that the IPMA revision this car currently shows is "-ACJ".

Which is the same rev that my '23 model running BC 1.2 had...before I got the update to BC 1.3 (now IPMA rev. "-BAE).

So I look forward to seeing that new IPMA update roll out to the '21 models, hopefully soon (maybe this "OTA Friday" will be the one?).

Interesting so the test for BC1.4 update was really BC1.2 applied to a BC1.0 car?

I'm not sure if they'd do what you're asking, but I'm sure they'd be happy to take your VIN and contact your dealership with any concerns. Afterall, you're the best part of Ford.

BTW, as much as I pick on the @Ford Motor Company account, they are probably just doing their job. It's obviously a shared account (either among different people, or among different personalities of the same person ) and is probably staffed by people with titles like "social media manager." They're probably extremely limited in what they're allowed to say/do.

They likely have no more "power" or knowledge than anyone you might talk to at a Ford customer service phone number. I'm sure they can be helpful, but only in a very limited manner.

So... I think I have BC 1.2, as I have a 2023 with a Nov 22 date. But I also have lane shifting and the feature that moves my car to the edge of the lane when passing a truck, which I understand to be a 1.3 feature? Is that correct, or were these features in 1.2 and I was just confused in my readings of posts on here?

Suppose its possible the car also had an OTA, I bought it used in January, but no BC OTA while I've had it!

The feature that moves a car to the side of a lane while passing a truck is/was included in BC 1.2. (I have it in my 2023 job 1 car.)

But not automatic Lane Shifting, no?

Ever watch the movie Galaxy Quest. It's the Sigourney Weaver character:

I'm not sure what "lane shifting" is

Ford calls it Lane Change Assist, and was introduced in BC 1.2 as well.

Are cars that shipped with BC1.3 getting the update?

Yes, I just got it on my 2023.5 which shipped with 1.3. I’m in EA and got the e-mail stating I could talk about it.

Nice!!! We need @rugedraw or @Mike G to look at your before and after IPMA versions!

Happy to oblige. @rugedraw or @Mike G let me know who I should dm my VIN and I’ll send it.

I'd be happy to take a look, but I don't see any reason it would be anything other than BAE.

We need to know the version 2023.5 cars came with from the factory. It has been said that cars with BC1.3 from factory won't be getting update because they are already on BC1.3. Clearly that is false.

OTA dashboard will show what version it was on before and which one it changed to. If inquiring minds want to know, it is easy enough to check with the VIN.
