Add Plex to buggy inconsistent behavior. I don't have call issues though.. But Android auto does need some love vs Apple Carplay.
Hell it would be nice to be able to mute a Microsoft Teams call ftom the screen.. Have to do that on my phone.. Wasn't an issue on my old Kenwood unit with Android...
Noticed the other day that the Ford Emblem has a chip in it... now that portion is loose. Would be nice if something that is going to see debris from the road could take a better hit...

Talked to FordPass support this AM. Went through all of the usuals. Restart Sync, open door lock button routine.. Even did fordpass connect reset on truck.. Nadda..

Mine is borked and its Connected Services in the truck not functioning... I posted a video in my "Alexa not working" thread and curious to see if any of you have that same experience in your settings?
Nothing pulls up for the list of services when FordPass can't talk to my truck... Its...

Did the job in my old FX4 and currently the wife's Murano.
Added to my Lightning
OH and people complain about a X indentation.. Have not seen that myself.. But I guess your mileage...
So a quick update.. Seems a "gateway" device, and yes its the one named gateway that handles the cellular bands for communication for connected services is the culprit. A replacement has been ordered and so I'm waiting to hear when it arrives to get installed. I'll let you know more detail once...
Highly recommend attaching your Lightning to your home Wifi and scheduling updates for a time you're not using the vehicle. I set mine for after midnight and "supposedly" you get updates quicker.
Welp it finally fixed itself and everything is back connected and functioning. I'll be keeping an eye on it.
Some interesting troubleshooting was you keep the drivers side door open for 30 seconds after shutting the truck off. This resets something, perhaps with Ford Sync or the modem?

No dice. Still can't activate FordPass to my vehicle and wake words don't work and Connected Services is blank when I try to view them in Settings...
Guess it'll be a trip to the dealer on Monday.
