Default Location on Ford App does not update

The location has quit updating in the Ford app. Info such as truck on/off, gas status, tire pressure, etc, all get updated (and are accurate). But the location hasn't updated in weeks. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Here's a pic of the bottom of the app...

It’s a known issue continent wide. The fix will be the first week of December. I’ve called, had text updates, etc.

If your truck is stolen, they’ll still have the location, it’s just an app glitch that’s being worked on (slowly it seems).

Thanks for the feedback. FYI, the data is coming from the vehicle & Ford, thru the app, and any individual phone's permissions won't affect it.

Thanks, at least it's not just me. This has been driving me nuts.

Yep. You’re definitely not the only one. Mine hasn’t worked in a few weeks either.

One issue I've had is that my "inhibit" security function never seems to work. It always shows the truck is still moving despite being parked in my driveway.
