We have ghetto dog mode, use the MS Paint built in to say 'dog mode, AC on, temp set to 75'

Yeah, unless your charging session stops (by reaching limit, or a charger error, or someone disconnects the charger) which turns off the AC compressor. You get no notice and you don’t know the interior temp.

Good to know. I’ve never left it on while charging, but glad I know this

Put recirculation on the main screen and when I turn it on, LEAVE IT ON. 40 mile trip yesterday constantly turning recirculation back on after the truck turns it off every 2 minutes. It does not matter what mode, and there was no chance of fogging. There are TWO buttons for defrost, you can do whatever when I push those, until then stop messing with what I set. I think a PM2.5 meter to read all the garbage the HVAC is letting in is due so the lawyers can hash out which lawsuit is worse, fogging or lung damage.

I don't want to see attention paid to anything else other than the BC 1.4 update and getting faster DC charging rolled out to everyone. These are big quality of life updates and should be the priority for @Ford Motor Company

My brother just bought his 2024 Flash and has these software updates. It's frustrating that I have had my truck for more than two years and do not.

Thank you in advance to Ford to get these turned around.

Those updates are out for 22-24, it’s just when you get the ota update. I didn’t want to wait so I went the fdrs route. I have a 24’ lariat and when I picked up my truck in feb my updates were way behind.

I agree with these, but I would put battery preconditioning and pro power with truck off as the first two. Actually, I would make the preconditioning manually available through console. My battery has never preconditioned. I have tried navigating to chargers via native navigation, Google Maps on Android, and Apple Maps on iPhone.

I didn’t know about remote cabin shutting off with frunk opening. Who would have guessed that to happen.

Yeah...I kept switching things around of importance. I really want them all asap. The only reason I put "stay in sports mode" first is because I am reminded of it every time I start my truck but you're right, in terms of functionality importance, preconditioning on demand is more important.

I learned about opening the frunk shutting things down this winter. Every time I go grocery shopping, I turn on cabin heat in the app while in the cashier isle. Then when I go near my truck I see that its on, defroster going... Looks great. Open the frunk to put groceries in and everything just shuts down. Happens every time. I am guessing it's a bug but maybe there is a reason for it.

Legacy behaviour, ie. they don't want you to get your fingers caught in the fan or fan belts when you open the hood {FRUNK}

Not to be too presumptuous / overbearing , but can I have Android Auto that doesn't continually / randomly disconnect , even when connected w/ USB ? FFS !!
Discounting the 7 serious warranty issues I've had in 19+ months , that in & of itself makes me a " one & done " w/ Ford. How long's Android Auto been around , 10+ yrs ?

Something My Tesla and Rivian have, when activating Blinker for lane change, besides blinking the mirror indicator, have a toggle option for audio alert as well. They do it for blindspot detection when backing up it would be nice to have that for lane changes as well
