I have a call with Ford OTA Marketing team tomorrow, if anything comes of it I’ll post an update.
Noted on the 14gen site and Mach e site (they are also having the issue) there is a update coming to fix this bug.

If most are being told to get the APIM replaced my question is, how will an update fix this?

Received 1.7.1 last week and now 2.1.0 this week. Odd that I have 2.1.0 already, since I have auto updates scheduled for early Wednesday mornings (tomorrow).

Hah, and I'm still on 1.4 with a FordPass account that still thinks my hotspot was never activated.

Lucky you

My Siruis icons did change where two of the presets reverted to just text rather than the icon but a signal refresh fixed that. I also get the small next turn display on the dash at the top when using CarPlay with etiher Google Maps or Apple Maps, but I've never used that before so I'm not sure if that's new or not. It is not the larger animated turn by turn smack in the middle of the dash screen that you get with the Ford navigation. I have a Lariat with 502A so my dash is all screen which could be different from the analog gauge clusters.

Yup seems like.

Seeing as the backup camera is a necessary safety feature as of 2018, and it's routed through the INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM for display..... Seemed like a good idea to notify NHTSA of the defect.
