2025 Mach-E Premium AWD extended range
Have a 3 hour trip tomorrow that’s all on blue cruise highway and figured I’d use my ford points for it. Subscribed like 6 hours ago and activation is still pending. Car is chilling in the garage plugged in with WiFi and everything else connected.
how long does this usually take?

In my experience, it ranges from a hour to many hours, but typically it should be good the following day. Provisioning is really inconsistent on Ford's end.

I usually purchase the day before and not the day off because of the delays. Connected services can't do much other than offer a call back and by then you have access to BlueCruise any ways.

Ugh thank you. I would like to use it tomorrow so maybe I’ll get lucky and it works out. Glad I didn’t forget today, not glad I didn’t do it yesterday as I planned, haha.

I did this same thing last week. It showed up as activated in the app and owner portal within minutes. It took quite a while to get an email confirmation (hours). The car had a pop up Saying it was active, not sure how fast as I didn’t drive right away, but not more than a few hours. If you cancel within 10 days, they refund your points!

Both of my yearly activations (I have two, in the Mach-E and an F-150) took less than an hour, so fingers crossed for you to get it soon. Let us know how it worked out.

Remove the vehicle from Ford app and re-add it. That may trigger the activation.
