So I started a new thread with this and I haven't had any action on it so I wanted to ask you guys....
After finally waiting to get my Bluecruise added to my job 1 truck I received the unpleasant surprise that they only gave me 5 months on my subscription, not 1 year like the email from Ford said...?

Ford care to chime in on this one?

No need to call. Just check your online under connected services. Should give you a year. The sync is for the maps only.

I just received update 2.8.2 overnight last night. Along with the notification from Ford that bluecruise is now active however I didn't have to schedule any downtime unless it did it last night when I have updates scheduled..?
Question for those of you that have confirmed functioning BC, in the truck where it displays your software versions does it show a BC subscription status? Because mine does not yet, but I received the email that BC is functional. Unfortunately I have not been able to test it out yet on a certified BC road. Also in the updates notes on the truck it says a series of more updates will be coming very soon.
Mine said same thing.
Took to dealer today and the say mine is totally updated the last message May 3rd said
Update 2.7.3 failed, haven't received anymore nessages since the 3rd of May.
BC was working from last time it went to dealer and they updated it..
Seems it's all working as it should.

All your updates have been done. Your IPMA config didnt update. Its till set for the old Cruise not the new Cruise.

Surprisingly all you need is to have a PMI ran on the IPMA and it should update the Config and get you going everything else is ready to go
Had the dealer try that. Still no success. Bought a Mongoose and just tried doing it myself. Still no activation in the fordpass app saying I have BC. Any other suggestions I can try?

Can someone confirm what power-up update is needed for BlueCruise to work? I just picked my vehicle up from the dealer after they had my F150 for three weeks. They assured me that everything was working and they test drove the vehicle to make sure. I tested it and I don't see anything. My update details says that my last update was 2.6.0. I also don't see Intelligent cruise control as an option in my features. Only adaptive cruise control.

You need to be on 2.5.3 or 2.8.3. However, if the dealership updated modules with FDRS, that won't show any PowerUp version, you'll just get whatever the last OTA you received.

Does that mean if I have 2.6.0 showing on my console that I somehow missed 2.5.3? The dealer confirmed that it was working a week prior. Maybe it is possible that an OTA came in and overwrote what they did.

Updated to 2.7.3 OTA today. My updates seem to get sent around 330-345pm. Was a 30 minute update. Hopefully more to follow!

Out of morbid curiosity can someone explain to me why 2.3 and 2.6 are the same thing? Was it too straightforward before?

No. In April or May, they added .3 to all update levels and added in a few additional changes. The Sync PowerUp page on Wikipedia shows the equivalents.

I got 2.7.4 on Wednesday and I was wondering number is next? The Wiki page show 2.4.5, but that doesn't seem right. Is it 2.7.5? Hoping to get my third update this week and be past this long wait to BC!
