Secure your Ford - Stolen Vehicle Services

[PrimeRisk]

So this popped up in the FordPass app today:

Unfortunately it just leads to this:

I could only find one previous thread on this from 2022 and it looks interesting if they're going to give it to us on the Lightnings:

https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/stolen-vehicle-services.12116/

Is anyone else out there seeing this?

If so, does the link go anywhere for you?

I visited the Ford website on my computer and found the info page:

https://www.ford.com/support/vehicl...12?name=stolen-vehicle-services--how-to-video

There is a video there that explains how to activate it and in the video it explicitly says it is not available on the Lightnings, however right below the video there is this message:

So maybe they are planning on rolling it out and have just jumped the gun on pushing the banner to the FordPass app?

AFAIK, this is only for 2024+ MY vehicles. I have a LandAirSea GPS tracker installed in my vehicle.

I do have a 2024, but the option has never been there under Connected Services (and still isn't).

I just checked, its the same for me. The demo video does say for 2024 F150's/Lightnings. Its not a surprise that Ford doesnt have it together before releasing a product.

Agree, that is par for the course for Ford. This is what I do see in the demo video that says it is NOT for Lightnings:

I'm very interested in being able to get this as my insurance carrier has a discount for having a vehicle tracking system in it such as Lo/Jack which I'm hoping that this would also qualify.

Weird. I have messages in my FordPass but I can’t read them. When I tap the message nothing happens.

Is this different than the Location tab in Ford Pass?

You already have location services in FordPass that will tell you where your lightning is. That is what I told my insurance company and I got a discount.

Unfortunately, if someone gets your truck started it takes about 30 seconds to turn off connected services and do a master reset.

I hope they can do it faster than I can!
