Software Updates
It doesn't really matter on the order but the TCU, APIM, IPC, IPMA , GWM updates will take the longest. Make sure you have a battery charger hooked up and make sure your laptop is set so that it doesn't go into power saving mode and turn off after xx minutes with the laptop adapter connected (ask me how I know).
Today I called my dealership and I was told that my service advisor is off still. The service manager wasn't there nor was the GM. I called Ford corporate and basically was told to call the dealership. I called another dealership and they had no clue about the 21G01 and would call me back. They never did. I finally called Executive Customer Services and they said they would look into it and get back to me. Amazingly 4 hours later I get in my truck and notice there was a software update and my truck was updated to 2.8.2 and I now have handsfree Blue Cruise. I don't know if it is a coincidence but when I called several weeks ago to customer service, that evening I got an OTA to 2.7.1. I called last week and within a few hours, I got the trailer update. I call today and got 2.8.2. I cannot view the cameras when driving yet.

Dropped the truck off yesterday to do recalls, oil change, etc. I brought up the BlueCruise programming since mine hasn't received the OTA yet, but I am getting close, and the advisor said he could add it but noted they have been having a lot of trouble with the BC update and the last one they did took about 10 hours. He said they would of course do it, but they already had a backlog on service so he said he didn't know how long they would really need the truck where they could get it a bay and charger for that long. I told him to just skip it. I have been getting OTA updates regularly, and coincidentally enough the OTA fix for the trailer brake controller came in the day I dropped it off for one of the fixes being the TBC reprogram.
They confirmed I have the newest software for the APIM and are going to update a few other modules. They are also waiting on the part for the underbody sagging issue as they had a bunch on hand but ran out, so should be in tomorrow.
Anyway, glad I am getting this stuff done, was kind of hoping at this point the BC update wouldn't be that bad but he said it's still a time consumer if nothing else. I also can't get the wiper motor fix as I didn't realize the fix for that isn't coming until later anyway.
They did a master reset on my Sync 4, so I need to remember to check that my intelligent adaptive cruise is working properly. I noted in here that after an earlier OTA update my Sync 4 ended up in an odd state where I can't see the speed limit detection and Intelligent Cruise options, although they were still working, so I just left it alone.

I think it's pretty nice that the PCM can be updated OTA. Now they should just start sending all the software updates out.
I received this one today as well and the trailer break relay on the 3rd. I'm sitting at 2.6.0 which I received on the 24th.
