Did you look at the fordpass app or log into Ford.com?

Have you had the truck since new and has it ever worked? This seems to be an error regarding being associated with an account

Yes I have owned since new. Not sure I just saw folks talking about updates and wondered if I was getting them., when I found some posts on how to do it I ran into the locked icon. FWIW everything seems to work fine but I suspect with this locked I am not nor will I ever get updates. From Fordpass I can see my truck info i have never tried to start it or do anything like that from Fordpass though. Pretty much use carplay so far and that seems to work fine.

Really strange. You would probably have to try a master reset and or ford pass reset.
That being said if you do you would need to re add the truck to your account and may have trouble.

so you may try the dealer route to have itdocumented. I try to avoid them because they are clueless but it may be a provisioning issue on fords side. Not sure but if you do a reset it disconnects any associated account from the TCU

I found something cryptic in the shop manual that might provide a clue. In the section discussing OTA updates, the manual lists a series of preconditions that must occur before an update takes place. One of those preconditions is “Vehicle theft (SVS) is not active.” Since the warning on your screen talks about accessing your Ford account, the only thing I can think of is that this might be related to Securialert. If you have that running, maybe try turning it off in FordPass or dismissing any alerts that have posted to your account.

Thanks I'll give that a try.
