Wake up babe! Another ugly dashboard thread.

EU cars have had this dash like forever as I can remember..??
Yes because the Lane Assist must be enable after every start on all new cars sold since late 2022
So even if we don't have 6.8.0 yet, when we turn the car on, we see the speedo on the right, I can still have it centered if I disable the lane assist, but have to do so every single time.... until I get the 6.8.0 update... soon or later

Lane Assist stays enabled in the US. Must be a European thing.
My words were not 100% clear
By law in EU, lane assist must be ON every time you start the car
BUT you can manually disable it
BUT if you stop/start the car, the lane assist will be re-enabled
The disabled state does not persist after a power-cycle ...

That leads to most European owners having the speedo on the right at all time

Got it. That's still not a thing in the US (yet).

Classic, another 6.8.0 hate thread. There is still one up on the front News page!!! Anyway, 6.8.0 says it failed as message in my FP App. Funny though, never saw the failure message on the Sync screen. I'm normally pushing hard to get updates; but with the odometer smush, I'm just sitting back and waiting.
Sorry to revive this thread, but my 6.8.0 (labeled as the frunk ajar update) has also failed 3 or 4 times now. Seems to be something on Ford's end, because it's not the usual "maybe your 12v battery was too low" message. Just says we'll try again soon.

Edit: Moving that discussion to https://www.macheforum.com/site/threads/power-up-6-x-poll.30878/page-41#post-747612

If it says they will try again soon, then the OTA most likely failed failed. Either the OTA trigger expired, the update was canceled/recalled by the mothership, or it failed to due to some kind of software mismatch or other issue.

On a related note, anybody know when Ford is gonna resume the BC1.3+ rollout?
Right after they send out the Tesla charger adapters.
