On your FordPass (iOS v.4.15.1) - from Home screen press the Account (upper right) button; go to Message Center, check your messages received ... if you got the FordPowerUp OTA update v. 2.8.2 it will appear there.
If not go to vehicle, press Vehicle button (upper left) on your center display, then go to System UpDates ... press Updates ... you will see Ford Power update, only the latest version you received, not prior ones though.
Thank you.

Ugh I know all too well about driving on I-4. Have you seen if BlueCruise can be activated on the I4 Express lanes yet? I’ve been curious about that since they are so new.
Yes Sir, it is ... don't read too much into the "BlueCruise" mapping, I believe far more highways are BlueCruise ready than as shown on the map which I have never seen. Fortunately for us here in FL, I have tried on most of the interstate & tolled roads around my area, including the World Drive which is the main thoroughfare for Disney's theme parks and it worked from 192 all the way up to Epcot exit !!!

Ahh ok, same way with just regular adaptive cruise control, but i set following distance pretty far, and haven’t had it happen since. Always pay attention to the road.
Exactly set the distance far so more room to react.

There must an "art" of BlueCruise ... I don't know it is yet. Just like when the Prius came out, there were Hybrid Forum discussing about "hyper-milling" ad nausea ... this was supposed to be the art of achieving maximum miles per gallon of actual driving.

My follow distance was already set to its maximum allowable range when in Intelligent Mode I hope this setting will carry over to BlueCruise mode... the issue is that if you set speed too high the car is jerky and makes erratic movements ....if you set too low then idiots cut in ... I live here in central FL and believe me we got all the winners here !!!
I use BC when traffic allows for it. Anyone jumping in your lane and the BC will trigger a precollision alert.
