I fix software bugs!
I'm curious more than anything, but if an owner uses FordPass and installs a tune does Ford know?

I don't think FordPass has anything to do with tuning. Nor does FordPass have anything to do with the truck communicating digitally with the cloud

I expect Ford can do a remote data dump that includes everything that can be seen in FDRS, and more.

It would really surprise me if this is not the case.

Also, since our trucks have a built in ATT cell modems the Ford Pass app isn't needed for Ford to communicate with with our trucks. Just an ATT cell signal.

and i found out the cell thingy is really never OFF, my truck did the OTA download while trucks was OFF and no where near my home wifi. but there is good cell coverage out at the end of the yard
the 10 minute one last week was done connected to my wifi at home. boom it was done.
