We have a working Frunk Button in FordPass!

[dbernard]

You got two fobs with the car, or did you buy a second?

Could one not find a way to purchase a European fob, and have it coded? I know it's costly, but would that not work?

came with 2.
Maybe since it is the GT ?
Do you want me to ask my garage if they can supply you with a 2nd one ?

Frunk button threads are the summer time equivalent of winter range decreases.

Here's yet another...

Ommmmmmmm. I consider ownership as Beta driver. Hope to have feature on phone eventually but not a big deal. Still loving the car.

Fun seeing Liv and Patrick et al at GTP-homewarming event yesterday.

At least you all have a Mustang key fob! Here in the UK we have a standard Ford key because they haven’t added the RF sleep mode to the fob.
I‘ve become adept at using the door numeric keypad to open the frunk. I can do if faster than it takes to load the app

Thanks for reminding me I don't have a frunk button. I was already happily at the acceptance stage.. now I'm angry about it all over again.

Working here on a P6 as well. Try @macchiaz-o 's suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestion. WE are fans of your Vlog.

For all you job 1 owners go look at Farley's latest tweet. I'm sure it will ruffle some feathers because he said that he listened to you all and connected vehicles can improve over time, while specifically referencing the frunk.

" The new Frunk button in FordPass was the result of customer feedback and a good example of how digital/connected vehicles can improve over time. "

Yeah, if you have a Job 1 Mach-E without the frunk button, you can just do like us and upgrade to a '22 GT to get it. Easy, right?

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

It did seem like you were hinting at getting a GTPE for yourselves, in your GTPE video a while back. What made you do it?

You have to setup PaaK to get the frunk button in FordPass. Unless you have a Job 1 car, in which case you won’t have it either way.

Thanks for that info, and thats what I was afraid of too. Just tried setting up PAAk again, really only for the passcode setup and we have success!
Took a half hour but I finally figured it out and one more hurdle tackled!

I'm still wondering why the frunk functionality still hasn't been enabled as part of the slew of OTA updates for Blue Cruise. The code and functionality is obviously working as it's in new cars, I just don't know why it wasn't added here.

I am honestly wondering if Ford just forgot about Job1 cars not having the remote frunk release.

1. Perhaps they are working on it.
2. Perhaps additional hardware is required.
3. A combination of the two above.
4. Perhaps they never actually promised a remote frunk release on job 1 2021 cars. No idea if they did or didn't really.

Odds are very high though that they haven't forgotten about 2021 Job 1 cars and the frunk release. We're always yakking about it.

They did promise it, as recently as may in a dealer note. Also promised on video by the head of the Mach E team. It’s getting really frustrating now that they are rolling out different updates every month it seems and this hasn’t been one of them.

We didn't want to jinx it and there were a lot of unknowns. But in the end, we got a great price trading our First Edition to make this possible so we got the GT on Friday. We ordered back in December and literally were't 100% sure we were doing it until Wednesday. We wanted the GT because of the increased performance and excellent ride quality with the Magneride.

Post a link please (if you have one). I'm not doubting your post but I'd like to very carefully listen to see if we heard what we wanted to hear or if it was far more specific. It's been a long time since we knew the job 1 cars were coming with a manual release and dividers, I just honestly no longer recall the exact language used/
