Blue Cruise Activated

[JamieGeek]

It says blue cruise on the display when it is first engaged. There is an icon showing hands on the wheel when it is nagging you too hold the steering wheel.

Do you see this on the display? (or something similar that says "Hands-Free"--the image is from Ford's video on the F-150)

If you don't BC isn't on.

Then you weren't in a hands-free zone. The videos clearly show the icon with hands off the wheel when it is in a hands free zone. My guess is the road you were on wasn't mapped so the regular ICC and auto lane centering were in operation

Well it literally said blue cruise engaged and shows a box with an acknowledgement.

Engaged as a feature might be true, but it probably needs to be on an active stretch of Blue Cruise enabled highway to actually feel different than the normal assist. I would assume right now it will be spotty access. The question is, does the icon or symbols chnage at all when it senses an active enabled roadway.

FEATURE WILL BE ACTIVE FOR 3 YEARS? WHAT AFTER THAT? DO WE NEED TO PAY $600 EVERY 3 YEARS?

Any chance you could post up the terms/conditions/refund policies? I'm mainly wondering if it's transferable to a different Mach E/Ford, if it follows the car, or if it's non-transferable.

No refund on newer vehicles. The first three years is built into the cost.

That is the current plan.

I would think so, but we will see

Did it transition like is shown in this video?


If so, it should not require your hands on the wheel except when BlueCruise cannot function on its own.

FordPass providing remote start and other features was initially supposed to be for 3 years, then a fee. It became free for life due to the competitive marketplace.
MyFordMobile same. Never predict what something will cost in 3 years.

You might have to pay even more after 3yrs! Isn’t this fun?

Exactly what I was thinking

Ford is so terrible at communication between departments. I was just on the phone with a supervisor at Corporate earlier and they had seriously 0 idea that newly delivered MMEs were being delivered with active BlueCruise.

For all we know, it was one guy at the factory who decided to just flip it on for all new Mach Es being built and forgot to tell corporate ?

Do we have confirmation that it even was flipped on? The only report i'm reading is that bluecruise is on but hands were still needed because they weren't in a blue zone?

Does anyone actually have confirmation of the hands-free feature?
