I might be part of the extra exclusive "late access program".

I registered for EA, was told I am in EA, but I seem to not really get EA updates like some others in the program. I do NOT yet have BC.
Being in EA does not guarantee early access to anything. Most EA members have not received any early vehicle features.

If you use the JSON view trick to get OTA status, on the Early Access page, you can see the data there and it will list the VIN of the enrolled vehicle or vehicles and list which features are enabled on each. The section to look for is "accountinfo"


Even though I don't own it anymore, my old FE is on this list with the 2 features It had at the time. Listed as Vehicle 0. My current GT is listed as vehicle 1, and has no current features enrolled.

Does the JSON show which features are enabled or just the ones that you’re enrolled in? For example, I’m enrolled in BlueCruise, but I haven’t gotten anything (preumably because I’m not EA VIP BlueCruise)?

I think you're in Phase II like me. I'm usually a week or two behind the leaders.

EA is beginning to remind me of an airline frequent flier program. .... I believe the perks include Darren Palmer personally opening your Frunk whenever you need access, Bill Ford plugging your car into chargers for you, and an unlimited Blue Oval Network account
What happens in the Concorde Private Room stays in the Concorde Private Room. ?

So no AA on my car (unless they put that in via OTA as well LOL)!?
No, it requires you to opt in multiple times (DocuSign, enabling tokens, etc)... Or to use Android Auto on your phone, if I take your question out of context. ;)

After seeing @legal727’s post on page 2, I went to early access.ford.com and logged in.
Turns out it’s the wife’s car that is in early access. And I apparently missed signing up for BlueCruise early access. It is only enrolled for early access to “intelligent charging” which we turned back off after giving it a week. It was so “intelligent” that it continuously charged outside our charging window and would have “intelligent”ly cost us an extra $150/month.

Yep, that's me as well.

Glad I wasn't the only one with that issue.

Yes, If you expand the enrolled products, it shows active or inactive for each feature.

My electric bill is charged at a flat rate. I'd love to see how it acts in that case. Perhaps it would intelligently not charge by morning ??

Well, even though not all early access members are in the first wave, the poll results are about what I thought. Almost half of the active forum members seem to be in the program. Moral of the story: if you feel like you're getting left behind, you're not. There's just a very biased sample of owners on here ?

In addition: Not all Early Access people got BC that was a subset...

Although I hear the floodgates may be opening soon.
