Did you have to delete/reset PAAK and add it again or did it just work after you installed the Android OS update?
It just worked. After the install it connected before I even got to the garage. And it stayed connected.

Still waiting for S22+, and in Canada (because I'm pretty sure that makes a difference to)

Received the January update this AM on my S24 ultra and my PAAK is working again
What is your carrier, AT&T, Verizon...?

This is fun. My Pixel 9 Pro got the Jan 2025 Android 15 security patch and now PaaK no longer works. I have tried clearing the FordPass app cache and that doesn't help. I haven't try to re-setup the PaaK to see if that will fix it. I guess I'll try that next.

I installed the January update a couple of days ago on my Pixel 7 Pro. I haven't had any issues. If there is an issue with that update it could be isolated to specific Pixels. Many of the changes this month were focused on the 9 series.

In the past when I had issues toggling airplane mode or rebooting my phone would usually fix the issue (temporarily).

I bought my Mach-e a day before I got the Dec security patch on my Pixel 6a. I never got PaaK to work. It would never connect. Last night, I checked for an update and got the Jan '25 patch. I had already deleted the PaaK so I reinstalled this morning. Worked immediately.
I have an unlocked Pixel 6a currently on the Verizon network.

My wife and I both have Pixel 6a, both on the same Android 15, hers works, mine doesnt....but mine did for a week or so in late decemeber. I almost think external factors impact, # of bluetooth devices you jump between, things like that.

I deleted the PaaK and set it up again and all is well.
