Man I'm striking 000 today

Is there any reason to be concerned about having the dealer install all of these updates (see attached) to make everything current in my '23 Lariat ER? They'll also be doing CSP 23B57 for the battery module firmware.

where did you access this list from?

There is no rhyme or reason in how OTA's are sent out; as least Ford does not say what logic is used to distribute updates. Where in Florida are you? If you're in the Miami area, we can set something up and I'll update the truck. No charge.

OH WOW THANKS!!!!! I am actually in Homestead, and work in Pembroke Pines. I appreciate that. Thanks again!!!

I'll be available Friday evening after work if you are. I don't have my kids that day, so it'll be perfect timing-wise. Send me your VIN so I can see what you have pending.

Well, your Fordpass itself seems to be fine because I can pull the connected info on your truck. Modules pending updates are below. Not too bad of a list. You aren't showing an IPMA update which may pop up once some of those updates are done. That one would take 3 hours and has been a bit problematic for some people, but the rest should be pretty easy. CMR will take 45+ minutes.

I'm pretty confident sales and service did indeed discuss and agree to do it. But since they forgot to put the service appointment in, and never told the service advisors of this agreement, I'm screwed at 8am since none of those people who agreed to it are there. The only thing they did was the CSP, which only took about 40 minutes.

Since these updates weren't critical service, I decided getting in an argument and making a scene was not worth the mental anguish. Nor worth ruining the service advisor's day as her very first customer at 8:00:02 AM. My good deed for the day.

I will take it up with sales later. It is a significant time consuming hassle to bring it to the dealer and leave it for the day. So it's debatable if I'll do this again just for the FDRS updates. I want them, I want everything current (the Tesla in me). But I don't want to shave a year off my life in sanity to get it done.

buy a mongoose cable and an FDRS license and never FOMO again

What is the easiest / best way to determine which code I have running? I saw an update was available, (6.8.something?) but can't tell if it applied.

This will show the most recent update, nothing prior to that.

Or send me your VIN and I'll check.

How? I have not even gotten one OTA! I have a 23 Lariat as well that I purchased in December 23. Is there anything I need to do on my end? I just thought since I got my vehicle at the end of 2023, that I would be on the tail end to get the OTA.

Early ‘23s are receiving updates with the ‘22s, I think the cut off is a manufacturing date in June/July 2023. If you are after the date, you have received no, or minimal, updates.

My ‘23 was manufactured in October, I have received one unnamed update and 4.2.1.2 earlier this month. This experience seems typical of other ‘23s.

I have not had the CSP done for the 12V sensor.
