FORD EARLY ACCESS PROGRAM email

[Aahhcc11]

Hi everyone,

Apologies for the delay in jumping in here—I know I'm a bit late to the party on this one.

I’ve flagged the broken URL in that email to the Early Access Program team (nothing like a "Page Not Found" to kick off an invite, right?).

If you are still interested in enrolling, you can bypass that email and head directly here: https://www.earlyaccess.ford.com/

Just a quick heads-up on the requirements: You do need to own a Ford vehicle to enroll, and right now the program is only open to owners in the US.

Thanks for flagging this.

A few things.

1) I signed up when I got my vehicle in 2024 and have never received access. Can you check on my submission? I would hate to go back into the queue at the bottom.

2) When i click your link I get a browser warning and it has an error:

net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
Subject: www.earlyaccess.ford.com
Issuer: This_Site-is-Untrusted

Edited... this is no longer an issue when i get off my company VPN.

That said, I click through the link on my personal computer and when I login, I get the 400 Error as previously shared

HTTP Status 400 - Bad Request

I kept hitting refresh and then received an email which said "Welcome to the Ford Early Access Program." Even though I never got a confirmation message in the browser

In that email I clicked the button "Finalize My Enrollment" and again got a 400 Error.

We will only get emergency bug fixes.

What kind of bug emergency can a five year old car have?

Plus, it's US only:

What kind of bug emergency can a five year old car have?

One candidate is the predictive speed assist which is both extremely bad in its corner behavior (brake way too much before corner and then accelerate at the entry meaning all energy used is lost on nothing as the result is the same) as well as borderline dangerous highway braking due to outdated maps. Outdated is a kind word here, as my highway had some temporary maintenance 3 years ago with reduced speeds - which the car STILL adheres to 3 years after completion.

Alternatively, de couple it from intelligent speed assist, so that it’s possible to have sign recognition without the predictive stuff.

Security vulnerability. Some hacker develops away to attack our cars, either remotely, or within proximity. There could be quick code changes to shut that down.

I think its pretty much done for 2021s, I havent had anything in a few years. The first few years I had the more accurate GOM, I had Public Charging and activation in Beta....Now, crickets.

Same, haven’t received anything since.

Honestly don’t even think we’re going to see many more updates in general anymore aside from the occasional bug fix or recall.

I’m still manifesting that Ford eventually offers a paid computer upgrade for newer BlueCruise/ADAS capabilities along with the new sync version, but that’s probably a pipe dream lol.

That will be when we can also swap into a different chemistry battery, oh, how about a solid state battery, and updated BC hardware for $5k. But then no one is ever buying a new car.

I get a 400 error with that link. Doesn't matter if I'm already signed in at ford.com, or clicking through fresh.

I had to delete some cookie data to get in. It shows I'm still enrolled. Last interaction was early Dec 2025 for a survey. It's nice that they still come to us for feedback.

Removing site cookies, as @hack-e mentioned earlier, may clear this issue. It worked for me.

IIRC, this occasional 400 error caused by spoiled cookies issue has been present on earlyaccess.ford.com for years now.

Just got a survey this morning. Ford must be watching us.....

 

[737flyer]

Yep, got one too!

I deleted all ford cookies but still have the issue. Even went into incognito mode and got the 400.

Anyone else able to make it work?

I had to refresh my screen several times when I got the error page
