Anybody else experiencing these screen bootup, backup camera and ambient lighting issues?

[L&Ebronco]

So yea, ford sucks w the ota updates. Feel like each update gets worse and worse. Like many, our screen often NOW takes forever to boot up. Backup camera sometimes doesn’t come on. But have any of you noticed, if equipped, that your ambient lighting isn’t automatically turning on? Have to go into settings to turn it on now. @Ford, please fix this problem soon.

FWIW, my ambient lighting hasn’t been consistent since picking up the Bronco last July. Many times it will revert to the lowest setting necessitating a reset. No idea why this is happening and since I don’t do a lot of nighttime driving I haven’t really worried about it…please post if you find out what the issue is

No issues here. Also no OTA updates since taking delivery. I turned that stuff off.

I've noticed it.
It's like the ambient lighting might stay on for a few days and then the next morning/evening it's completely off. I hope they fix it because this time of year it's dark when I leave for work and dark by the time I get home.

Every time mine updates, the ambient lighting resets. After the latest one, now my Bluetooth drops in and out at the beginning of a call, or it won’t “find” my iPhone. Man, I really miss the days of carburetor’s and roll up windows

I get no 'Rock horse build' and the compass on the infotainment screen is stuck on North since last update.

Same issues on a 22 OBX.

I had OTA updates on until I felt most of the kinks and glitches got sorted out and then turned them off. It’s been surprisingly trouble free ever since. Last update was 4.2.3 in September.

I used to have the ambient lighting issue every other week or so but it hasn’t happened once since I turned off updates. Also notice my phone connects to CarPlay quicker and more consistently.

Ambient lighting was having to be reset often but good for about 6 months now

Hi Eric! I can look into your bronco's concern on my end. To get started, could you please send a private message over with the name/location of your local Ford dealer and your bronco's VIN?

The last time you asked for my info, I gave it to you. Then got an email from ford asking for my info. It’s been at least 6 months, crickets. Nothing from ford. You guys don’t care. Still have issues w heated steering wheel not working and the car not locking correctly hitting the external lock button. Just look back in your dms, you’ll see my info if you really want to help.
