Dear Ford…

[that_macheguy]

Ford, can we please remove these from the main page in my FordPass app? I can conveniently access all of this information in the tab literally right below it. This makes the app look tacky. It was finally very good looking! Seriously though, get rid of it.

Dollars my man, dollars. Thank God it’s nothing else, if ya know what I mean…

joking aside, mine doesn’t have that. Could be them free dollars until payday in two years or so.

I think this was just pushed out. I had to restart my app yesterday and it showed up after the restart. But I agree... it's unnecessary and unwanted.

They couldn’t just give us dark mode with this update. They had to throw in useless ad banners along with it, right on the home page.

What am I even supposed to “buy” for the BlueOval Charge Network?

Well, FP 5.12.0 here and I don’t have any of that. am I missing an update? If not it’s gotta be them dollars. Got the services prepaid for about 3 years on purchase of my car, so maybe it’ll show up in mine when renewal strikes in two years or so ?‍

Pressing the Buy button just takes you to the Ford page and allows you to update your credit card. Or input one of you don’t have it setup already. The app isn’t looking to see what you already might have ponied up for.

Heard loud and clear! BlueOval Charge Network is complimentary, so nothing to "Buy" here. Restart the FordPass app and the messages should go away.

I get that, it just seems like a poor decision to lump in the charging network with other paid offerings like the GT performance upgrade or BlueCruise. They tout having no annual fee or cost (aside from the actual charging) for BlueOval CN. “Buy” is misleading. The UI designer probably copied and pasted the element.

I just don't like the new carousel, looking for ways to nitpick it ?

Awesome! They’re gone. Thanks ?

Nope, still there on mine. It’s been restarted repeatedly since the last push.

The removal is rolling out, I confirmed on my account that restarting FordPass did remove them.

Makes sense. It was probably just a server-side change to begin with. Didn’t see them there after I first opened the app post-update, then they rolled out sometime after. Hopefully they disappear for others just as quickly and painlessly.

THANK GOD. THEY DISAPPEARED. Thanks everyone!

Soon FordPass with ads.

You know it's coming.

My current app is at 5.11.0 and I have nothing like this.
An annoying feature my FP has is that I still can't turn on Plug and Charge. When I try to turn it on, a blue spinning circle spins for a second but it never turns on. Ford says it's a known bug so I guess everybody has this issue.
