You and I are definitely close in the Ford queuing process. After seeing your message that 4.2.4 was in your queue, I went out and started my truck up. Got ~145MB download. Next start it installed and gave me the update notice. Looks like nothing new... Come on BC 1.2...!!

Hi just got 4.3.2 OTA! It was one of those that you can't drive while it updated, it said it would take 30 min to install but it only took about 10 min. Funny thing is it turned off all of my Connected Services and WIFI, I had to turn it all back on afterwards.

That's a new one! PM me your VIN please so I can see more details on it and so I can update the OTA history thread being hosted on F150gen14 forums.

That file associated with the error code was among the smaller ones (only 1.86Mb). Wonder what rascally thing happened with it?

The troubleshooting icon is happy to tell me that it'll try again and that there's nothing to do. Gee, thanks for that! ;-)

I saw that same failure code on a few trucks. Not sure what it means.

Thanks for the VIN. It's an IPC update. Let us know if you see anything different on your dash screen.

It means while the OTA process has improved for many, it is (and will remain) imperfect for some number of us!

They’re obviously confident in the updates…

Just got 4.2.2 delivered. And I wasn’t even driving it.

Happy Battery, Happy Truck.

I don't see anything different on the dash screen. I did have to reconfigure myview. I had to reactivate Alexa as well.
