Letting the 24 owners know that 1.4 should be rolling out OTA at some point soon. It was made available in FDRS today.

So just why the heck won't Ford send OTA updates to install oll of this SW they have sitting around everywhere. I've never seen such backward thinking in all my life.

I updated last night with fdrs. Update took 3 hours. 1.4 is a big improvement. Usually on my drive to work it would kick out multiple time and would not kick back in for 20km. This morning it didn’t kick out once.

I think Mach-Lee on the MME site posted that if BCHF kicks off it will take two minutes to come back to HF mode by itself. I've found that if it kicks off...and I then turn cruise completely off... it takes less time to reengage after turning it back on. I don't know for a fact that this is how it works, just my impressions so far.

Thanks for the heads up! I installed it last night.

Today is a great day to test out BC 1.4 in KC - the winds are strong and gusty, so it was tested hard. I took it on a 48 mile drive where it would have previously dropped out of hands free a dozen times. It didn’t drop out even once.

Curious if the FDRS update is also updating Sync to show toggles for Lane Change Assist and In-Lane Positioning?

When the 22's and 23's got the Early Access BC 1.4 OTA it did not include the toggles, The release notes said they would be added later (I enabled with FORScan in the interim).

To add to what Jesse said, the toggles would come with n separate APIM update for truck that were not built with lane change etc in it.
