When I originally brought it in 3 trips ago, I gave them (among other things) a printed copy of the TSB 21-2249. On it, I had highlighted six of the nine potential messages that owners COULD be seeing, indicating that I was seeing those six. I even told them "you'll likley have to replace the IPMA module". When I picked it up the first time, they claimed they didn't see the DTC(s) to warrant replacement and "reprogrammed" it. When I took it back yesterday, they had a different tech work on it. The told me that the module failed to accept the programming and they were ordering a new one. My guess is: The first tech never did squat and/or had no idea what he was doing.

 

IPMA module arrived this AM and has been installed. They are now performing all the alignments. I believe there are four of them for my truck: FDRS IPMA alignment procedure, FDRS camera alignment procedure, IPMA - 360 degree view camera alignment procedure and IPMA - Pro Trailer Backup Assist camera alignment procedure.

 

Just got this update maybe BC is OTW

 

Do you have naked pictures of Bill Ford or Jim Farley? How the heck is your service department getting your new modules so fast? I'm still waiting on my APIM that was ordered March 1st.

 

Yep. That's BlueCruise. 2.53 will be the last update to activate it.

 

So do these roll out slowly or what's the deal? Just got my used 2021 Xlt and nothing.

 

BlueCruise isn't available on XLT.

 

My truck says its fully up to date which is great. I also think that Ford in de emphasizing the "Intelligent Cruise Control" name, Looking at the current owners manual on the app, it talks about it only as subset of adaptive cruise, adding the speed sign recognition. Perhaps the lawyers got scared of people's videos putting weights on the steering wheel to "fake" blue cruise.

 

I think the ICC was a redundant option. Bottom line, if you have adaptive cruise, lane keeping/centering and SSR enabled, you have "intelligent CC" enabled.

 

LOL. Nope.

But don't think all is well. I picked it up yesterday after the new IPMA module was installed, configured, and cameras were aligned and ... no difference. It's still all over the road like a drunk.

Sent a terse email to the dealership owner (I know him personally). I've only had to get him involved one time before with all of my 13 vehicles that I've purchased there. This will be the 4th trip this time I've had to drop this truck off for service in the last 3 weeks, and the only thing wrong is something they screwed up while fixing the other things. Suffice it to say, I'm not pleased right now.
