Park Aid fault

[Weim Dad]

Today I got a Park Aid fault on my ‘22 GT. I believe I just received a 6.6.0 OTA update recently. I was able to hit “ok” and it cleared for now. Any thoughts or experiences?

EDIT: If you're talking about the reverse brake assist unavailable message that's normal and will clear the second drive after the OTA.

If it's park brake fault, you'll want to get that fixed at your dealer ASAP before you're stuck and can't release the parking brake. See these:

I had a similar experience after the Power-Up 6.5.0 update this morning (Job 1 car). I got the Park Aid Fault while stopped in traffic and then after parking the car and starting it about 20 minutes later I got a Reverse Park Assist not available. See Manual. (Photos attached). I checked the Manual and what it said did not really make any sense since all the doors, hood and liftgate were closed. I will check later on about the status of parking aids & cross traffic alert systems being on.

I am a little (actually a lot) annoyed when Ford does an update and modifies settings that have been previously set and not warning that those settings may have been changed by the update. As a software engineer for over 40 years I have always been aware what happens when you update software and change settings that the end-user is not aware of.

Thanks for the reply. Nice to know I am not here out on an island with an issue. I really have had any parking issues or codes since. Thanks again

I started getting this error (Reverse Brake Assist Not Available, followed by Park Aid Fault) about a week ago. I just updated to 6.6.0 last night so I'll see if it clears. I've already tried driving with my hands off the wheel on straight roads multiple times, and the fault hasn't cleared.
