Ouch, I blew a motor in my Kia while I was waiting. After the panic subsided, I decided to see if there were any recalls and fortunately, there were. New motor for free! But yeah, I was almost in the same boat. Hope it works out for you.
This would be great! I could go back to picking my nose in traffic without worrying about who’s watching and we’ll be able to point and laugh at the flippers who paid $10k over MSRP because they assumed they’d be able to get $25k
You won’t get much information until you’re scheduled for production. About a week before that date, you’ll get your window sticker and more info can be gleaned from that. Most of the people in this thread had to stare at their window sticker much longer than you will due to the hardtop...
This is actually interesting to me. All it’s doing is sending a wireless signal to the computer which probably isn’t encrypted. If that’s the case, you should be able to capture the data and replay it. I have the equipment to analyze what is being sent. I’m going to have to nerd out on it this...
Search this forum for the dealer you’re currently with. If you don’t see any mention of them, you’re probably good. If you see 300 page threads talking about how good they are or how bad ford is screwing them, find someone else.

edit… and try to be nice
In all seriousness, this does ride a fine line between valid use cases and too ugly to install. The ford pass app is nice but there are certainly areas where it would be useless due to no coverage. I like the idea of being able to install it in an inconspicuous place. (Not the muffler)
This is crazy! You’ve got everyone beat by over a month in the “Most Deeply Screwed By Ford” contest (At least, for those that actually got build dates). I hope you get it soon!
