Tried to reply earlier but there was a FU. I think it happens when the Bluetooth connection is broken. Go to settings, BT and check the connection.PaaK has been hit and miss for me. Multiple instances MME didn’t recognize the phone. Either door wouldn’t open or car wouldn’t start. but each instance, I could Just go into Ford pass app and manually opened the door or started the car. Not ideal but at least it get car started.
I'm one of those folks whose having no issues with PaaK at all. It just works, as long as I don't get in the car with the phone in my left pocket (then no key detected). That's BLE, which might have a different transceiver in the car for security, or not. I don't know. But my regular Bluetooth has days where it won't connect, or will reconnect every few minutes, or makes my car think my audio is a phone call instead of audio. This poor behavior has occurred with every car I've had with Sync since 2016, unfortunately.Tried to reply earlier but there was a FU. I think it happens when the Bluetooth connection is broken.

Technology really only has a ways to go with Ford. They think they can lazily implement this stuff and nobody will actually use it, not realizing it’s a big deal for a lot of people.It's Ford, it's the Phone, it's Apple, it's Google, it's user error, it's the weather. I can see it now... Sounds like we better get used to the FOb and call it a day...
Let's face it. Technology has a way to go. We'd like to think it is further along and more reliable than it really is.
The PaaK update will help. But still not 100%. More like 80%. Most of the time will get the key once you are mid way thru the password, which still annoying.PaaK got worse with the security update; it's slower to register. I haven't done the PaaK fix update yet. Also, now some of the doors won't properly unlock. It's definitely a software issue since the button press gets registered and when another door unlocks, those doors will pop open.
Agreed. I have a Pixel 5. You can't get more vanilla Android than that! It worked once. Then refused to work for a week and I got the dreaded "master reset" error.PAAK - not ready for prime time!
