Is it possible to remove vehicle access for one of the people currently authorized to access my car?

Spoiler - It’s my ex. I don’t like it that he can go into the app and see the location of the car.

If you do a factory reset it will remove the vehicle everywhere. You’ll need to set it back up for you.

I was afraid that would be the only way. So be it…

I’m pretty sure when you delete their profile from the car, it will remove their PAAK. Also change your FordPass password.

Is there a way to just delete their profile without deleting mine? They haven’t set up PAAK, so that’s not an issue. And they use their own login, so they don’t have my password.

Delete their phone from vehicle. Click on Settings on Home Screen of FordPass, then Vehicle Access, then delete their name.

Note that if they know a programmed door code, you can delete those. If they know the factory door code, you cannot delete that.

Phone has been deleted from the car -it no longer shows up when I go to “Phones”.

In FordPass settings, under Vehicle Access, I can see both my name and theirs, but there doesn’t appear to be a way to delete just their name. Clicking on his name does nothing.

Go to your car and click on the profile button on the top right. Do you see their profile?

If your ex still appears in the ford pass app under Vehicle Access after you delete their profile, they will still have access to your location data. My wife had access to the car via the app before she had a profile in the car. According to the Ford support site, a vehicle reset is the only way to remove access.

How do I remove FordPass®* modem access for authorized users?

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the info and the link.
