Has anyone with a truck produced after the July '23 Rouge plant closure (production week starting Aug '23 or later) received an OTA update yet? If so, how long was the delta between production and your first OTA?

I've had my truck a year exactly. No flood gate, but a simple trickle of OTA.

Same, I was usually getting them same day the individual threads went up on the forum. Now I feel like 6.8 took over two months to push and nothing on 6.13 for several weeks.

I believe mine was manufactured in May. Bought it in Sept. No OTA for me yet.

Same here. Build
Blend date May '23. Took delivery July '23.

No OTAs.
Exactly the same. I would have thought by now there would have been at least one update. A little disappointed, but not despondent or anything. I wish Ford would communicate more about the why and when though.

Built the first production week in April 2023 after the battery fire and battery changes. No over the air updates yet. Maybe I'll get one when it's a year old.

I know the Bluecruise 1.3/1.4 rollout hit some bugs on the Mach-e's. Seems that really gummed up the works while they figure it out.

8/31/23 blend date and zero OTA's.

I did receive the bad battery sensor CSP letter last week. Scheduled for next week install.

We'll see what happens after that..
