Are you in Early Access?Just got 3.2.1 tonight.
This 'feature' will bring in the cash....frunk buttons...not so much.So Ford can figure out how to deploy Alexa, but not a frunk release? Really?
That's Ford's priorities in a nutshell. How much you bet that you'll get Alexa before you get the recall OTA?Just got 3.1.1 today. Still nothing on the 22S41, though
They have a week to get the OTA done, or it's going to the dealer for the update. Talk about the Benjamins, it's certainly cheaper to have a successful OTA than pay a service tech, but hey, what do we know?That's Ford's priorities in a nutshell.

Muppets!
Emmm...and they will blow right by that deadline. Wanna know why? Cause they can't get all the cars out there on the same page with OTAs.They have a week to get the OTA done, or it's going to the dealer for the update.

They’re playing with us on that BlueCruise feature. Bit of a jerk move.Oh yay, a lane change game. That's not what we wanted when we said we wanted a Lane Change feature @Ford Motor Company
If they do make that icon non removable absent dinging up, I’ll either turn off automatic updates and not accept any that deal with Alexa, or I’ll simply always been in CarPlay and never use their UI.Some have said that once you press the Alexa icon at the top of the screen next to your profile button and set it up so you're signed up that the icon goes away.
If true, that's a pretty d*** move to place an annoying icon on the top of your display, right next to your profile icon just to make you want to get rid of it so badly that you'll sign up to let Amazon track your car/truck.
As soon as I can get FORSCAN to work on my Lightning I'll be removing that 'feature button' and I will never setup Alexa. If Ford was smart they'd offer a way to opt out of setting that up and include the option to remove the icon for those who don't want to ever enable that.
I don't see that happening.
Just put a piece of black electrical tape over it.If they do make that icon non removable absent dinging up, I’ll either turn off automatic updates and not accept any that deal with Alexa, or I’ll simply always been in CarPlay and never use their UI.
