Newly Designed FordPass 5.0 App®: What to Know

[Big Dog Daddy]

Fordpass 5.14.0 (BETA) for android just installed on my phone over the weekend. Release notes haven't changed and still say 5.13.0. In app it reports 5.14.0

The service screen has changed in look and now reports washer fluid.

Still no Zone lighting ?

The iOS beta version of v 5.14.0 was released a few days ago, Same updated service screens as the Android version.

I received iOS 5.14.0 today but don’t have the washer fluid showing up. Under the tire pressure the only thing showing is Oil life.

I had to close down then restart the app before screen changed to the new format.

Latest Fordpass update on Android. My friend's 23' was stolen last night (another friend just told me, I have spoken to him yet). I was thinking about using location to find out and wanted to test something out. I can see where my truck is at any time due to location services being turned on in my s23 ultra & in my 21'. If I disable location services in the truck menu, but keep it enabled in my phone, I have the option to reenable location services remotely through the fordpass app. But when I select that option, the app just crashes. That is a huge problem that needs to be fixed asap. When I talk to my friend later today, I'll get more details if anyone is curious. Keys were in the house, an SUV was parked in front of it and it was still stolen.

Wtf that shit needs to be password/pin protected both ways. Maybe even 2FA. No one should be able to disable location services in my truck in the first place ??

Is there something beside the washer fluid? Looks like another box there

There is. It redundantly tells you if your tire pressure is normal or not.

Yes, there's a third box there when you swipe over, it simply says "tire pressure normal"

Thanks for the reply. I’ve now signed out of FordPass, shut down and restarted phone, logged back into FordPass but still no change. App does show 5.14.0, no Washer Fluid box. I know the truck is lagging behind on updates, don’t know if there is an update needed in addition to the FordPass update to reflect the changes??

I'm not sure if any vehicle updates are required to make this work. I have a '21 too and it's behind on OTA updates also. Last thing you might want to try is a vehicle start then swipe down while in the app to force a refresh.

Some of these features require the onboard software of various modules in the vehicle, along with the FordPass version with the necessary code, as well as a server-side property/flag to enable the feature.

FINALLY got it to show up. I went into location services, refreshed location. The changes then showed up. I’m surprised the app logout and restart of phone didn’t refresh it, but this step finally did.

Where is the option to refresh location please?

On the Location screen, top right corner click the rounded arrow. This is on Apple device.

Wonder what is "normal" tire pressure?
