"Preparing for Drive" conditioning for no reason this morning

[ericNdfw]

When I woke up this morning I heard my MME's fans running full-blast as if it was pre-conditioning or something. I checked the FordPass app and it showed a "Preparing for Drive" status. This is odd because I have no departure times set. I canceled from the app and, a few minutes later, clicked "resume schedule" and it returned to it's usual silent state with the normal configured 80% SOC.

Checking my Sense power monitor, it seems that it had been running for about 5 minutes before I cancelled it. Not sure what triggered that.

I'm in the DFW area and my garage ambient temp was 100º F so I thought it might be doing battery temperature management but it did not indicate as such in the app and it hasn't started back up in the ~3.5 hours since I "resumed schedule".

App doesn't show any OTA updates coming in either. (sometimes I wake to 100% SOC after OTA updates so thought that might have been a cause)

Has anyone else seen this behavior?

I was just in the car (parked, not driving) and noticed that there was a cancelled update reported on the center screen updates section. I checked back a few minutes later and it was downloading 4.3.6 so maybe it was downloading this morning when the fans were running? If so, it sure would be nice if the FordPass app had said something to that effect.

I had the same thing! I was confused as I don’t have anything set for departure times. It was still 91F at 5:30am here in Phoenix, so I thought maybe is was just hot…

Did you also get the 4.3.6 OTA update this morning?

No, nothing has shown up for an update yet.
