We have a working Frunk Button in FordPass!

[Jimrpa]

I just used my frunk today. I use it regularly. And am reminded of the lack of a release every time I use it ? Ford engineers were bright enough to figure out how to put in a 5 second limit to protect delicate electronics but they can’t master a remote frunk release? ?

This has been Ford’s plan all along to get early adopters to upgrade. It clearly worked on you!

Congrats!

Congrats on the new car/upgrade! I hope you like it!

On Ford pass 4.18.0, I see a frunk button. Would that mean that I'll be able to open my frunk? I can't test it as my car is at the dealer being diagnosed for a dead 12v battery. By the way I have a 2022 AWD extended range premium.

There is in Europe.

Is there a way to buy a key fob from Europe and program it for a MME in North America?

I would definitely try this if I could get a part number and the frequency was the same.

Even if the frequency isn't the same, it still may be possible.

The frequency is different.

The frequency is different.

The F150 uses 2 different frequencies and people have converted theirs to add remote start key fobs. I wouldn't be surprised if it's as simple as changing the module.

Do the European cars have it, though? I thought I read that it didn't make it to production for insurance reasons.

That limitation was just in the UK, and maybe also Ireland.

Uh… no. No job 1 cars have this.

Not true, my car always had this feature on Ford pass. My car was built on 9/29/21, which I think is job 1

Someone remind me please. Is there any hope that this functionality comes to the job 1 2021's? Please?

We picked up our new Mach-E GT PE on Friday and today I discovered we have a functioning Frunk button in FordPass! ? ? ?

Can you post a screenshot of the FordPass page so I can see what I don’t have. My MME was built 06/28/21

Sorry to go all "squirrel" on you...but am I seeing correctly that you got your car delivered within a month of it being built?!!

Yep. 3 weeks.

That's job 2. Job 1 was up to 7/7/21.
