Good to know. I took my truck into a dealership today because there were some recalls showing incomplete that I’m 100% certain the previous dealership never cleared out. But I used it as a free appointment to talk to the service tech more about my updating issue. They confirmed I have 16 modules...

Yeah, I wound up replacing the battery out of pocket. It was just annoying that a not even 2 year old truck (at the time) needed a new battery and Ford acknowledged there was clearly something wrong with the battery, but since it wouldn’t throw a code, they couldn’t replace it under warranty...

Oof, that’s a tough pill to swallow. I appreciate the info though… guess I’ll throw it on the Amazon wish list and get it eventually. Seems so ass backwards that the updates weren’t installing OTA, and now I need to fork over nearly a grand to get it all updated properly. Then again, even...

Yeah, I gave up after the second time reiterating to them that after searching dozens of forums, I am very clearly not on the latest version, just for them to tell me that not every vehicle gets the same updates. ??‍♂️ figured I was better off posting here.

Thanks! I sent him a PM. Odd that it seems like my version is quite a ways behind, yet Ford customer care was adamant that I have the latest version with no pending updates.

Looking to see if I can get assistance verifying if I have any updates that I’m missing. I recently changed some settings with Forscan, but it doesn’t appear that the splash screen is updating for me, no matter how many times I reset the APIM. Ford customer care says my Sync is fully up to...
