I would hope they would just put the original APIM back in.

 

Ask them to hold your original APIM until you get a chance to test it otherwise it may end up back in the APIM box to Ford for redemption of the core charge.

 

@Livnitup
Im on 2.3 via OTA but have a bunch of road trips coming up starting next week. Could you check my VIN and see if I am pending updates? I'm guessing OTA could still be coming for me but man I would love BC now.

Thank you sir!

 

There's is no OTA History showing for your VIN so doesn't appear that anything is pending right now.

 

thank you! Guess that means I will wait a little while and see if it rolls out to me eventually.

 

Irony: I post this and a couple hours later, the dealership calls me to tell me the new APIM has arrived.

Let's see how things pan out tomorrow when they install and attempt to program.

 

My appt at a local dealer was confirmed today, when i asked them to make sure that they could do the 21G01 update , they took a minute and actually asked the techs . They came back and said they didn't have the proper equipment to do that type of update.
Not faulting this local dealer, (My dealer is a different story )
I haven't had to use Ford service at all except for the the driveshaft fiasco on my sons Platinum, they covered a rental for the 3 weeks it took to get a replacement one so all is good with that ...
Done with the whole mess, Ford denied the buyback claim and tomorrow morning am going to file my BBB arbitration and take it form there . I have 2 of these Platinum job 1 trucks , I only care about mine, it isn't huge issue for my son.
@Ford are you listening, I have bought 5 60K+ vehicles in that last 3 years . Tend to trade every 2 years... 0 engagement from their side
I still say that they don't have the correct hardware to do the OTA for BC.
You would think that if an owner initiated buyback proceedings they would FastTrack the issue but nope ...

Just Venting
Will reconsider my next 5 purchases ...

 

Congrats. I had the last three of those done last Weds & Thurs, yet still am at Power-Up 2.1.1 and a much earlier SYNC. I'm contemplating what to ask the tech to attempt at tomorrow's appointment, but I've sworn off the comprehensive 21G01 for now. Probably the PCM, especially since last week the dealership was unsuccessful at overcoming Deep Sleep Mode, and the PCM update may be related. Would you, or someone else, please run my VIN, post-last week and pre-tomorrow? Muchas gracias! 1FTFW1E81MFB04500

 

Same here, as far as those two connections once being routine, although I hadn't checked them on my WiFi's app in a while, so I'm glad you brought that up. Plenty strong xFinity home WiFi. The TCU logged as connected when I requested connection upon return home late this afternoon, but SYNC's last connection was on 4/13. I've been waylaid at OTA 2.1.1 for a few moons now.
