Per the video most of us have watched, we know that Ford is turning on modules and preparing for a big update sometime "soon". My vehicle, manufactured in late May, has some issues. I have the high speed fan noise when I charge at 48 amps at home, which is easily remedied by charging at 40 or lower. I have the charger set on 32 now, but would want the ability to use 48 if I need a quicker charger.
I also have poor PAAK performance, and FordPass synchronization with the vehicle. And despite getting OTA updates 1.6 and then 1.4, I cannot turn on SecuriAlert, despite getting to the switch via the FordPass message sent to me on August 27th (can't get to it any other way). Ignoring the benefit, or lack thereof, of SecuriAlert, this tells me that something didn't update properly with 1.4.
What I'm unclear on is whether or not the upcoming update (as well as turning on BlueCruise), will bring all my modules up to date, or whether I should schedule a dealer visit to get them updated. Clearly the fan issue at a minimum is covered by a TSB, and I suspect my dealer will agree to update every possible module they can. Is it worth my time, and their time, to do this? Or will I find that all things are resolved by this "coming soon" update in the next few weeks?
I will be taking another trip in roughly 3-4 weeks, and don't want a potential BlueCruise update to not work because I didn't go into the dealer now.
Anyone really know? Not looking for WAGs. ?
