Well, for the second time in just a few months FordPass is down again. You can’t use PaaK or register your car. And if you log out you’re screwed.

No ETA on when it will be back up.

Seems to be working just fine for me. (iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15)

You sure about not being able to use PaaK while FordPass servers are having trouble?
If my FordPass app is already started I and go near my car right now, I would expect a local unlock handshake to be completed without trying to reach a FordPass server. If it requires a remote connection to FordPass, I would be apalled at the design of the system.

You are right, on both counts. It is a local handshake but if you log out of the app, that’s where you are screwed.
