Optional Product Improvement Program 21G01 - BlueCruise Programming

[Somnus]

That's exactly what I'm wondering - if the final update is not available to us yet since the VIN list hasn't cleared through whatever control point FDRS uses to authorize the updates.

One would think that with the release of 21G01 that Ford would have added those VINs to the authorization list since that is the whole point of the Bulletin

Hope you don't mind but I'm gonna DM you my VIN and see what's up before I head into service, again, next week. the dealer on the last service said they still had 2 module updates left, but I took that with a grain of salt.

@bigdatabigdata
It doesn't look like you have any updates pertaining to BlueCruise specifically (aside from the GSM, but It might be tangentially related), but there are still a few updates available

However, your car seems to be in roughly the same spot as mine. Stuck on SYNC 358

I have an appt to drop off my car on Monday for the glass recalls. Dealer says there are 3 action items to perform. The CSP, a PaaK update and installation of the BlueCruise software.

He said the glass and two action items can easily be completed in one day. The BC install might run into day 2 per the instructions. At the moment, it sounds like they have it together.

I plan on handing them the key fob with no further instructions. Let's see what happens.

Not a problem!

Looks like you only have an IPC and GWM update available

I would not be surprised if the GWM update triggers a bunch of others. They should do the GWM first.

Wow, so the dealer was on the up and up this time.

and THANKS!

Dealer update Day 3 of 21G01 : "Your tech is working with Ford engineering to try and complete this recall. we have not seen these errors before. I am unclear on how long this will take."

I am stuck with a Gassy Mustang (rental)

 

[VegStang]

I'll mention it, thanks. Considering there were about 14 updates to do last time it was in it's nice to have some progress, especially after 3 days at the dealer.

And that's why I'm glad Ford gives DIYers access to FDRS.

Yea, I'm almost there myself. Silly that I thought with OTA it wouldn't be necessary, maybe in the future...

The doors are included in 21P22, as are the OBCC, BCM, and RFA, so those should be done as well. With any luck, they'll just keep going down the list and do them all. But we know how that often goes.

Anyone know which update specifically fixes the "forward passenger side door will not open with after fob pressed" problem? I s 21B36? Thanks.

It was originally SSM 49676. But that has been superseded by a number of other bulletins that have included the BCM.

I'm sure Ford will get it figured out eventually.
The Mach-e has had some major software-related growing pains, so I understand their hesitation on pushing OTAs

As an alternative, folks having major issues with dealers completing software updates may have better luck finding someone locally on the forum or a mobile programming/diagnostic company that can do them. You’d have to pay, but it may be worth your time and saved trips. I’ve offered to do them locally (MSP), others have done the same. Perhaps we could make a map or something to help find competent dealers or forum members that can do updates.

I agree, a map/list would be awesome

I am willing to help out in the Salt Lake City and Layton areas of UT
