I'm not sure this is the proper forum topic but, here it goes. , I just test drove the FCTP MACH-E Premier at my dealers. I was able to pair my iPhone to the car. The dealer had given me the VIN in advance.
Question for forum and any FORD engineers on forum. What is to prevent anyone with a smartphone from downloading FORDPASS entering the car's VIN, pairing, and driving off. Now, I did have to be in the car and interact with the screen. But, I looked in the manual and could find no lock-out means in the text or on the display to prevent pairing of unwanted smartphones. Just asking. Loved the car BTW. Mine is supposed to be here next week. Word of advice, NEVER leave your Mach-E unlocked!
