It has happened to me that a message pops up and disappears before I can finish reading it. Is there a place where I can see recent messages ? I've looked around, but I haven't found anything.

Thanks,

Where? On the dash, Sync, Ford App, your phone? Usually important messages will show in the Ford App (top right person icon > Messages).

No, system messages as you drive. Like the "Stop safely now" message (this one does not disappear).

Many of the important messages will also appear on the app.

Though to decide if it's important/relevant or not if you can't read it.
If the message is critical, it won't disappear. If it's informational only, it will. If it's informational and important, it should appear in the Ford app, even if you haven't set up PAAK. Messages on the IPC block view of the "underlying" data, such as speed. They are, for that reason, transitory unless critical.

I've seen messages that appeared important, but did not show up on the app. What can I say, there obviously is no error message log that I can consult.
