I have a 22 Tremor 402a, it came with a 3 year free trial of blue Cruise which expires this October. When I go to the connected services part of the app and click buy on blue Cruise I get this.

I have to enter a credit card, I assume they give me a year free, hoping I forget and it renews next year.

Has anyone else gotten this offer?

Lots of us early (2021-2022) folks were given the 4th year free because of the long delay in the OTA updates for Bluecruise. A goodwill gesture by Ford.
Sweet! I'll take it.

I keep checking for that offer as well but I've never seen it and they cut my bluecruise off immediately after 3 years.

My battery has been constantly low the last 6 months. It always starts but 10 minutes after I shut the truck off, I get the message that features aren't available, so I haven't gotten any OTA's in a long time. Probably a year or more. I'm going to try to get it replaced under warranty otherwise I'll just buy a new one and see if I can start getting OTA's again. Hopefully I can still get Bluecruise 1.4

Upgrade to a H8 battery while you are at it.

If you are a Costco member they are cheap.

I am, thank you. I'm going to try to get a free replacement since I still have full warranty until October, but if not I'm upgrading.

I got a warranty replacement. They replaced my factory H7 with an H6 and then argued with me about it being the right one for the truck. Not two weeks later I got the messages again. Been nearly a year on the H8 and the only time I got the message was after it sat without being started for a full month.

Dang, maybe I won't even waste my time, and just go straight for the H8.

I have a 2021 Limited that I bought in July of 2024, Warranty expired on September of 2024, prior to the warranty expiring I took the truck to the dealership for maintenance and told them to run updates at the time, and that is when it upgraded to blue cruise 1.3, a few months ago I took it back for maintenance and told the rep I wanted to upgrade to blue cruise 1.4 and the rep told me that I cannot upgrade to 1.4 because my truck is a 2021 and it doesn't have some side sensors on the side that is required for BC 1.4. I wanted to know if anyone knows if this is true.?

I didn't know that F150's ever got 1.3

And I don't think 2021's are ineligible for 1.4
Pretty sure anything that can run 1.3 can run 1.4

Don’t get an H8 if you have a Powerboost. H7 is the biggest you can go.
