Overhead view on instrument cluster not leaving.

Yes, send Ford feed back. They will get right on it and it will be remedied in a day or so or perhaps two or three years or most probably not at all.
Remember, consumers are not Ford customers.
Best to get in car, try to figure out what last update screwed up, then go about your business and not let your wife know what ridiculous nonsense you are trying to work around this week.

This update is so peculiar....a static Mach in the middle of the display. I dont see an obvious improvement. All other information is moved far far left/right. It makes no sense unless something else might be coming.

Question: Is it possible for the side / rear cameras to provide imagery of road stripes and other vehicles adjacent / behind the Mach...blind spot etc?

On my 2023 with Bluecruise 1.2, the car in the center shows more ADAS specific stuff like lines turning orange when the car gets too close to them, red when the car crosses the line, a car in front when it sees one (thus may be using adaptive cruise), nudging over when passing a large truck, etc. I get it's not as pretty (not that I ever had the pretty view), but I think the intent is for that to be more helpful with the various ADAS features.

Yes, you can expect the display on all Mach Es will be like you are describing once the updates are finished and a more enhanced BlueCruise is operational.

It is one of the signature design features of the Mach-Es interior. So much so that it’s even in the commercials, now it’s all but gone.

Got it. It looks great. I’m joining you all in solidarity at the virtual picket line.

What is the point if you do not have bluecruise.

Even in Hands-on BlueCruise the center symbol will provide more information than you used to have.

 

[Maquis]

You likely have “BlueCruise” (formerly known as “intelligent” and/or “Adaptive” cruise control). The display will provide visual feedback for that.
What you don’t have is “Hands-Free BlueCruise.”

Gotta love Ford’s morphing terminology.

LOL yeah, especially when what we generally call "BlueCruise" used to be called "BlueCruise Hands-Free" so I call it "BCHF" and now it's "HFBC." ??

I use the adaptive assists and I have hated the display since day 1. Too much empty area on the left side and all of the important information is crammed hard to the right. Ford's UI people needed to disperse the information across the screen, not cram it into the right side and give you a big empty space on the left between the fuel gauge and the dumb car icon in the middle. Definitely not Poodle elegant. ??

That makes sense. But I would counter with this:

1) The static picture is now a default when I turn on the car, but BC and ADAS stuff does not come on by default...so why make the static egg a default view

2) Im 100% urban. Adaptive cruise, cruise of any kind, BC and lane keep are 100% never used. I just like to drive my car the old fashioned way around the city. ICE is for the roadtrips for us.

Oh, I know. My husband uses cruise more in town than I do, even in town, but we live in a largely rural area and drive a lot of country roads, and my husband finds cruise control is lighter than his heavy foot. ?

My hope is they will implement two Maine driver display options, one heavier on ADAS features and information, and one that puts the speedometer in the center for city driving, with the ability to choose to always keep one or the other, or have it swing between the two depending on if you're using cruise control or not.

Unfortunately its gone after the 6.8.0 update. It sucks. It was one of my favorite things about the car. Make sure to send Ford feedback using the Record Feedback app on the touchscreen.

Honestly, I always liked the graphics if the middle mode best

You car does that today. Press the lane keep warning on the left side of the steering wheel.

The car display on the Mustang is nice. It’s small and conveys the info.

Yeah but that's on the "real" Mustang .
I couldn't resist ?
