Issues with the latest software update?

[DUSTYcazOREGON]

I vote dying battery. Another symptom of dying battery is your Bronco ASS becomes disabled

I hate it when my ASS becomes disabled!!! But seriously, what is A.S.S.? Thanks

Anybody else having issues with their Broncos since the latest software update? I update. The software about 2-3 weeks ago and I’ve been having some issues with the infotainment and other systems. Before the update I would start my vehicle and the entertainment systwm would start up with the screen that has the Turn Audio On button on the touch screen. Now it says “Bronco Saved” and goes to the setting screen. I’ve also noticed that when I open the doors the over head light does not go on. I had the battery checked when I had the oil changed about a month ago and everything is good. And it starts up right away so I know it’s not the battery. Let me know if anybody else is having that issue
Thanks

Since the update my CarPlay doesn’t always connect. And when it does sometimes there’s no audio. Very glitchy…

It’s not the battery. I had it checked. I’ll have to call the dealer tomorrow

My battery passed test as well at dealer. But it was not charging to full capacity so dealer replaced it under warranty and my software glitches were immediately fixed. That was at 3 years and about 31,000 miles

I’m over the warranty mileage, but I got the extended warranty

Just did a short drive (20 min each way) to the grocery store, parked - and the app sends me this.

Didn’t get that one yet

My CarPlay connection has been terrible lately and have also seen Bronco saved pop up often. Don’t know what that is.

I started getting the Bronco saved meaaage after the update a couple weeks ago

 

[Draughon]

Last couple of days - no issues or warnings on battery. What about you guys? Still having problems?

I had the dealer check my battery and it was bad. They replaced it and after $360, everything should be back to normal. I called the Ford customer support line and they said that the Bronco saved message is normal, but I’ve never seen it before this latest update, so who knows what that that update was for

Mine gives either a Bronco Saved or Vehicle Unblocked message on startup since a update last fall. Doesn't seem to mean/do anything. Haven't had any new issues with anything - Wireless CarPlay was always pretty spotty, and remains so.

I put my bronco on a charger for a couple of nights. Then driving it daily I have not had any issues any more. I will run a test and let the bronco sit for 3 days, just to see if I can replicate the issue. Mine is more complicated because I do have the genesis dual battery package....but I can force the system into a single battery operation mode with some quick disconnects I installed on both batteries. So no idea now. I will keep you guys informed of my test results. I will likely start tonight with not driving the bronco until friday. I should get the remote start disable text in 1 or 2 days after not driving...that seems to be normal from my experience in the past. That message cues me into the fact the car has gone into battery save mode.
